FAQs

How often should I clean my Wallabee Evo suede shoes?

It's recommended to brush your suede shoes after every few wears to remove surface dust. For deeper cleaning or stain treatment, address issues as they arise.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

Suede is generally not ideal for wet conditions. While a suede protector spray can offer some resistance, it's best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to prevent water damage and staining.

What is a natural crepe sole?

A natural crepe sole is made from layers of coagulated latex from rubber trees. It is known for its softness, flexibility, and excellent shock absorption, providing a comfortable and unique feel.

What is the purpose of the extra lace?

The extra lace is provided for versatility in styling or as a direct replacement should your original laces become worn or lost. It allows you to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.

Are these shoes true to size?

> Info needed: [General fit guidance for Clarks Wallabee Evo, e.g., 'Clarks Wallabee models typically run true to size, but individual fit can vary.']

How do I protect the suede from stains and water?

Before wearing, treat your suede shoes with a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. Reapply periodically according to the product's instructions.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap of the suede. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used sparingly.

Crepe sole is sticky or attracting too much dirt

Gently wipe the sole with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stickiness, you can try lightly dusting with talcum powder, or for more embedded grime, use a crepe rubber cleaner. Avoid walking on very dusty or sandy surfaces.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

The high-quality suede will soften and mold to your feet over time. Wear them for shorter periods initially to break them in comfortably. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort.

Suede has water marks or stains

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent water marks, a professional suede cleaner may be required. Prevent future marks by applying a waterproof suede protector.

Care

Maintaining the appearance and longevity of your suede Wallabee Evo shoes requires specific care:

  • Suede Upper: Regularly brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, gently rub with a suede eraser. Consider applying a good quality suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to guard against water and stains. Avoid wearing in heavy rain or very muddy conditions.
  • Crepe Sole: The natural crepe sole can pick up dirt and debris. To clean, gently rub the sole with a damp cloth or a specialised crepe sole cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing, as this can damage the natural rubber. If the sole becomes sticky, a light application of talcum powder can sometimes help, though this is usually a temporary fix.
