FAQs

Are Wallabee Boots true to size?

Clarks Originals generally run true to size for most individuals. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the half-size up for comfort.

Can I wear these boots in the rain?

While the suede offers some natural water resistance, it is not fully waterproof. We highly recommend applying a suede protector spray before wearing and avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions to preserve the material's quality.

How do I remove scuff marks from the suede?

For light scuffs, use a suede eraser or a clean pencil eraser to gently rub the mark away. Then, use a suede brush to restore the nap. For deeper marks, a professional suede cleaner may be required.

What is the crepe sole made of?

The iconic crepe sole is made from natural rubber, which provides exceptional comfort, flexibility, and a distinctive aesthetic. It's part of the Wallabee's original DNA.

How often should I clean my Wallabee Boots?

Regular light cleaning with a suede brush after each wear will help maintain their appearance. Deep cleaning or stain treatment should be done as needed, especially after significant exposure to dirt or elements.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The suede material has some give and can stretch slightly over time. Many find the Wallabee comfortable for various foot widths. If you typically require wide-fit shoes, consider trying them on or consulting a sizing guide.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces are standard flat laces and can be replaced if they become worn or if you wish to customize the look. Ensure replacements match the original length and width.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted

Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush. Brush in one consistent direction to lift the nap and restore its original texture and vibrancy.

Crepe sole feels sticky or looks very dirty

The natural crepe sole can become sticky or discolored. Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For more embedded grime, a dedicated crepe sole cleaning block or a small amount of mild soap on a damp cloth (carefully avoiding the suede) can help. Allow to air dry completely.

Boots feel too stiff initially

The Wallabee Boot's high-cut design and suede material may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially, pairing with thick socks if needed, until the suede molds comfortably to your feet.

The black suede provides a neutral yet distinct base for many color palettes.

Care Instructions for Suede & Crepe Sole:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, treat the suede with a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. This helps protect against moisture and dirt.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
  3. Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Moisture Exposure: Avoid wearing in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.
  5. Crepe Sole Care: The natural crepe sole can pick up dirt and may darken over time. Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, being careful not to get soap on the suede. For tougher marks, specialized crepe sole cleaners are available. Avoid harsh chemicals as they can damage the natural rubber.
  6. Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
