FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Wallabee Cup features a moccasin construction which tends to offer a more relaxed fit. However, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. The mule version offers a bit more adjustability due to its open back.

How do I clean the shearling footbed?

The shearling footbed is best kept clean by airing it out. For minor spots, gently spot clean with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely away from heat.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes, including the Wallabee Cup, in wet conditions. Suede is susceptible to water damage, which can cause staining and affect the material's texture. Using a suede protector spray can offer some resistance, but they are not waterproof.

What is the benefit of the FSC®-certified rubber sole?

This indicates that the rubber used for the sole comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. It's a commitment to sustainability.

How durable is the natural rubber crepe sole?

Natural rubber crepe soles offer excellent cushioning and flexibility but can wear down more quickly on abrasive surfaces compared to harder synthetic soles. Regular cleaning and care will help prolong its life.

What is the difference between the Wallabee Cup and the Wallabee Cup Mule?

The Wallabee Cup is a traditional low-top shoe with laces, while the Wallabee Cup Mule is a slip-on version with an open back, offering easier wear and a more relaxed aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser might be needed.

Shoes feel stiff initially

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the soft suede to mold to your foot. The moccasin construction is designed to become more flexible with wear.

Water spots on suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and lift the affected nap. Pre-treating with a suede protector can help prevent this.

Squeaking sound from sole

This can occasionally happen with new rubber soles. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or on the sole contact points. Ensure the sole is clean and dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile style that pairs well with various casual outfits.
  • Comfortable for extended wear due to the cupped sole and soft materials.
  • Durable construction typical of Clarks Originals footwear.
  • Premium feel from the soft suede upper.
  • Sustainable sole option with FSC®-certified rubber.

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful maintenance and is susceptible to water damage.
  • The open-back mule version might not offer as much heel security as a traditional shoe.
  • May not provide the level of arch support required by individuals with specific foot conditions.
  • The natural rubber sole can wear down faster on abrasive surfaces compared to synthetic outsoles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Wallabee Cup requires no assembly. They are ready to wear upon purchase.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for general adult foot sizes and are best suited for casual wear. They pair well with jeans, chinos, and casual trousers.

Care:

  • Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dirt and dust regularly. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Protect the suede with a waterproofing spray designed for footwear, applying it periodically. Avoid exposure to heavy rain or moisture.
  • Sole: The natural rubber crepe sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Over time, it may naturally wear down, which is characteristic of this material.
  • Footbed: The shearling footbed can be aired out to refresh. For cleaning, spot clean gently with a damp cloth if necessary, and allow to air dry completely.
