FAQs

What type of leather is used for the white Wallabee?

The shoes feature a white tumbled leather upper, known for its soft texture and slightly pebbled surface.

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the natural pebble crepe sole and full sock bed lining are designed to provide comfort for extended wear.

How do I choose between the two sets of laces?

The flat tonal laces offer a more subtle look, while the square leather laces can provide a slightly more distinctive appearance. Choose based on your outfit and personal preference.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather can be treated for water resistance, the white tumbled leather and crepe sole are best suited for dry conditions to maintain their appearance and integrity.

How should I store my white Wallabees?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to help maintain their shape and prevent dust accumulation.

What is the 'moccasin toe profile'?

This refers to the construction method where the upper leather wraps around the foot and is stitched at the top, creating a distinct seam that forms the 'moccasin' look, particularly noticeable on the toe area.

Does this model come in other colors besides white?

Yes, the Wallabee series is available in various colors, including green and other finishes, although this specific guide focuses on the white variant.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather and sole to mold to your foot's shape. The tumbled leather will soften with wear.

White leather has minor scuffs or dirt marks

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner for white leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Consider using a white shoe eraser.

Crepe sole looks dirty or scuffed

Use a damp cloth to clean the sole. For scuffs, a crepe rubber cleaner or a pencil eraser can often remove surface marks.

Laces are soiled

Remove laces and hand-wash with mild detergent and water. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Pros and Cons

  • Includes two sets of laces for customization.
  • Iconic and recognizable design.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Clarks Originals Wallabee comes ready to wear. Simply choose your preferred lace style from the two provided sets and lace them up. The shoes are designed for immediate comfort without a break-in period, though they will naturally mold to your foot over time.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult men and are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They pair well with trousers, jeans, and even some shorts, depending on the occasion.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: For the white tumbled leather, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and smudges. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly, following product instructions. Avoid soaking the leather.
  2. Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray suitable for white leather to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning.
  3. Laces: The included laces can be hand-washed with mild soap and water and air-dried.
  4. Sole: The crepe sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Minor scuffs on the sole can sometimes be buffed out with a crepe rubber cleaner or a pencil eraser.
  5. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain their shape and protect the leather.
