FAQs
How do I protect my Meare Walla suede shoes from water?
It is highly recommended to apply a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically for suede before your first wear and reapply periodically according to the product's instructions. While this offers protection, suede is generally not fully waterproof, so avoid heavy rain or puddles.
What is the best way to clean the black suede?
For routine cleaning, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For scuffs or spots, a suede eraser can be effective. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner, always following the product instructions and testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely before brushing.
Are these shoes true to size?
The Meare Walla Standard Fit is generally true to size. We recommend ordering your usual size for Clarks Originals footwear. If you are between sizes, please refer to our sizing chart or consult customer service for specific guidance.
Can I wear these shoes in winter or wet conditions?
Due to their premium suede construction, the Meare Walla shoes are best suited for dry conditions. While a protective spray can offer some resistance, they are not designed for heavy rain, snow, or slush, which can damage the suede.
How flexible is the sole?
The Meare Walla features a tonal EVA sole unit, known for its lightweight and flexible properties. This design allows for natural foot movement and contributes to the overall comfort of the shoe, making it ideal for prolonged wear.
What does 'anatomical footbed' mean for comfort?
An anatomical footbed is engineered to support the natural contours of your foot, including the arch. This design provides enhanced comfort and stability, helping to distribute pressure evenly and reduce fatigue during extended periods of standing or walking.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner as per product instructions.
Shoes feel less comfortable over time.
Ensure the fit is still correct. While the anatomical footbed offers lasting comfort, general wear and tear can occur. Check for any worn areas in the footbed or outsole that might be impacting comfort. Consider professional assessment if discomfort persists.
Slipping on certain surfaces.
Inspect the tonal EVA sole unit for excessive wear or damage. While designed for durable traction, prolonged use on rough surfaces can degrade grip. If soles are significantly worn, it may be time for replacement.
Suede has developed water spots.
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once completely dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For stubborn spots, a suede eraser or a very lightly dampened clean cloth followed by brushing may help. Always use a protective spray to prevent future water damage.

Care Instructions
Maintaining the premium black suede uppers is crucial for the longevity and appearance of your Meare Walla shoes. Follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, it is highly recommended to treat the suede with a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. This creates a protective barrier against moisture and dirt.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dust and dirt after each wear. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn stains, professional suede cleaning is recommended.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, do not use direct heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers). Stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight.
- Storage: Store your Meare Walla shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees or stuff them with acid-free paper to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or submerge suede shoes in water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
