Product Information

Full details

The Clarks Originals Wallabee Cup is designed for the adult male seeking classic moccasin style with modern comfort for everyday wear. Its key benefit lies in its soft suede construction and supportive cupped sole unit, offering a streamlined look. A potential consideration is that the suede material may require specific care to maintain its appearance. This shoe features a moccasin toe design, a cupped sole for underfoot support, and a flexible construction. The Wallabee Cup Mule variant offers additional winterized comfort with a shearling footbed and a slip-on, open-back silhouette.

FAQs

What is the main difference between the Wallabee Cup and the standard Wallabee?

The Wallabee Cup features a distinct 'cupped' sole unit, offering a more modern profile and enhanced underfoot support compared to the traditional flatter sole of the standard Wallabee.

Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?

While the suede can be treated with protector sprays, suede is not inherently waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

How do I clean the shearling footbed (if applicable)?

The shearling footbed can typically be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.

What does 'Forest Stewardship Council®-certified rubber crepe sole' mean?

This means the natural rubber used for the sole comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. It signifies a commitment to sustainable sourcing.

Can I wear these shoes without socks?

Yes, the soft suede upper and comfortable footbed are designed to be worn comfortably with or without socks. The warmlined footbed can offer additional comfort when worn sockless.

How should I store my Wallabee Cups when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a dust bag. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.

What is the typical lifespan of these shoes?

With proper care and regular maintenance, the Clarks Originals Wallabee Cup can last for several years. The lifespan depends on the frequency of wear, the conditions they are exposed to, and how well they are cleaned and stored.

Troubleshooting

Suede shows water marks or stains.

Allow the shoe to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to lift the nap. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions precisely. Consider using a suede protector spray for future prevention.

Crepe sole feels sticky or stiff.

Crepe soles can sometimes harden with age or exposure to certain conditions. Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid excessive scrubbing. If stiffness persists, a very light buffing with fine-grit sandpaper might help, but proceed with caution.

Shoes feel too tight.

Suede can stretch slightly over time with wear. Wear them with thin socks for short periods. If they remain uncomfortable, consider consulting a cobbler for professional stretching, or explore if a larger size is available and suitable.

Laces are dirty or worn.

Replace laces with a compatible pair of the same length and color. Clean existing laces by hand washing with mild soap and water, then air drying.
