FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Wallabee has a classic fit. While the suede upper is somewhat forgiving, they are not specifically designed for wide feet. Consider trying them on if possible or checking customer reviews regarding fit for wider preferences.

How do I clean the pink suede?

Use a dedicated suede brush for regular cleaning. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a *slightly* damp cloth may be used with caution. Always allow the suede to air dry completely and consider using a suede protector spray afterwards.

What is the natural crepe sole made of?

The crepe sole is made from natural rubber, providing a distinctive look, flexibility, and grip.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. While a protector spray can offer some resistance, it's best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet environments to prevent damage and staining.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

You can wear them with thin to medium-weight socks. No-show socks are also a popular choice to maintain a clean aesthetic. Some may prefer wearing them sockless for a more relaxed feel, but this can increase the likelihood of odor and affect the interior lining over time.

What is the origin of the Wallabee design?

The Clarks Originals Wallabee was first introduced in 1968 and has since become an iconic shoe adopted by various subcultures worldwide.

Do these shoes come with any accessories?

Yes, this model features bespoke fobs that are part of its design, signaling Clarks' heritage.

Troubleshooting

Suede losing its texture or color.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to restore its nap. For discoloration, try a suede cleaner specifically designed for the color, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Crepe sole feels sticky or wears down quickly.

Crepe soles can naturally become slightly sticky with age or prolonged contact with certain surfaces. While wear is normal for natural rubber, avoid abrasive surfaces. For stickiness, try cleaning with a damp cloth and allowing to air dry.

Shoes feel stiff initially.

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to break them in. Suede will naturally soften with wear. Avoid getting them wet during this process.

Water spots on the suede.

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to lift the nap. A suede protector spray can help prevent future water spots.
