FAQs
Are the Clarks Originals Wallabee Boots suitable for wet weather?
While the suede can be treated with a protector, the natural crepe sole is best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. For heavy rain or snow, alternative footwear is recommended.
How often should I clean my suede Wallabees?
Regular brushing after wear helps maintain the suede's appearance. Deep cleaning or applying protectors should be done periodically, especially after exposure to dirt or moisture.
What is the best way to store these boots?
Store them in a cool, dry place with shoe trees to maintain their shape. Avoid plastic bags and direct sunlight.
Will the crepe sole wear down quickly?
Natural crepe soles are softer than synthetic rubber and can wear down faster on rough or abrasive surfaces. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive wear on harsh terrains will help prolong their life.
Can I wear these boots with orthotics?
The Wallabee has a removable sock bed in some iterations, but it's best to check specific product details. The moccasin construction offers some flexibility for accommodating insoles, but custom orthotics may alter the fit.
What does 'moccasin construction' mean for comfort?
Moccasin construction involves wrapping the upper material around the foot, providing a flexible, glove-like fit that enhances natural foot movement and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Consider applying a suede protector.
Crepe sole feels sticky or looks worn
Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth. For stickiness, a light brushing with a stiff brush or a specific crepe rubber cleaner can help. Avoid exposing the soles to excessive heat or abrasive surfaces.
Boots feel too tight
Wear them with medium-weight socks to help stretch the suede slightly. If the tightness is significant, consider if they are the correct size or if a professional stretching service is needed.
Water spots on suede
Allow the boots to dry naturally away from heat sources. Once dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. Applying a suede protector beforehand can help prevent water spots.
