FAQs
How do I choose the right size?
It is recommended to refer to the size chart provided by Clarks Originals or try the shoes on in-store if possible. UK sizing is used for this model.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
While the crepe sole offers some grip, suede is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in wet conditions to prevent damage and staining to the suede.
How often should I use a suede protector spray?
Apply a suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically, especially after cleaning or if the shoes have been exposed to moisture.
What is the difference between the two sets of laces?
One set is plain white, and the other features the same maple stripe pattern as the shoe's upper. This allows for customization of the shoe's appearance.
How durable is the crepe sole?
The natural pebble crepe sole is known for its durability for casual wear. However, it can wear down faster on abrasive surfaces or with very heavy use compared to rubber soles.
Are these shoes suitable for formal occasions?
No, the Wallabee is a casual shoe. While stylish, its suede material and moccasin construction make it best suited for informal or smart-casual settings.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a suede eraser or a damp cloth, followed by a suede protector spray once dry.
Crepe sole is marked or dirty
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a mild soap solution can be used cautiously, ensuring it doesn't saturate the suede. Allow to air dry.
Laces fraying or worn
Replace with a new set of laces. Both the white and striped laces provided can be used as replacements, or similar flat laces.
Shoes feel slightly stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. The natural suede and crepe sole will soften with wear.
