FAQs

How do I clean the suede on my Wallabees?

To clean suede, first use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For scuffs and minor marks, a suede eraser can be very effective. For tougher stains, use a specialist suede cleaning solution, always testing it on an inconspicuous area first and following the product's instructions.

Are Clarks Wallabees true to size?

Generally, Clarks Wallabees are considered true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. If you are typically between sizes, it's often recommended to try both sizes to determine the most comfortable fit for you.

Can I wear my suede Wallabees in the rain?

It is best to avoid wearing suede Wallabees in heavy rain or very wet conditions, as water can stain and potentially damage the suede. Applying a high-quality suede protector spray can offer some resistance to light moisture and help prevent minor stains.

What is a crepe sole and what are its characteristics?

A crepe sole is made from natural, unprocessed rubber, known for its soft, bouncy texture and excellent cushioning properties. It provides superior comfort and flexibility. Its characteristics include a slightly sticky feel (especially when new), a tendency to attract dirt, and susceptibility to wear over time.

How can I protect my new Wallabees from stains and water?

Before your first wear, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray evenly over the entire shoe. Allow it to dry completely. Reapply periodically (e.g., every few months) or after cleaning to maintain protection against water and stains.

What kind of outfits pair well with brown suede Wallabees?

Brown suede Wallabees are incredibly versatile. They pair excellently with casual wear like jeans, chinos, and cargo pants. For a smarter look, consider them with tailored trousers, corduroys, or even under a casual suit. They complement earthy tones, blues, and neutral palettes beautifully.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull, dirty, or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the entire surface of the shoe in one direction to lift dirt and restore the natural nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner.

Crepe sole is attracting dirt or feels excessively sticky

Gently wipe the sole with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, a crepe sole cleaning block can be used. A certain level of tackiness is natural for crepe rubber, but excessive stickiness often indicates accumulated grime.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable upon initial wear

Clarks Wallabees are designed to mold to your feet over time. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the premium suede to soften and conform to your foot's unique shape. This 'break-in' period is normal.

Suede has a water stain or dark spot

For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For dried water stains, try gently brushing the area with a suede brush. If persistent, a specialized suede cleaner designed for water stains may be necessary, applied sparingly as per instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

Your Clarks Originals Wallabee shoes require no complex setup. Simply lace them up to achieve a snug and comfortable fit. Ensure the laces are tied securely to prevent slipping and provide optimal support. The suede will gradually mold to the unique shape of your foot with wear, enhancing comfort over time.

  • Outfits: Excellent with jeans, chinos, corduroy trousers, tailored shorts, and even some relaxed suit separates.
  • Seasons: Best suited for drier seasons like spring, summer, and autumn due to the suede material.

Care

Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede Wallabees and their crepe soles.

  1. Suede Protection: Before your first wear, and periodically thereafter, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
  2. Regular Brushing: Use a suede brush (with brass wire or nylon bristles) to gently brush off loose dirt and dust. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede. For tougher marks, use a suede eraser to gently rub them away.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For dried stains, a specialized suede cleaning solution can be used following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Crepe Sole Cleaning: The natural crepe sole can pick up dirt and debris. Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth or a specialized crepe sole cleaning block to remove surface grime and prevent excessive stickiness.
  5. Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage suede.
  6. Storage: Store your Wallabees in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
