The Clarks Originals Wallabee Shoes are designed for individuals who appreciate timeless style, comfort, and heritage craftsmanship. Their key win lies in their iconic moccasin-inspired design crafted from premium leather, offering a distinctive look and comfortable wear thanks to their signature crepe sole.

Your Wallabee shoes arrive ready to wear. Simply unbox, loosen the laces, insert your foot, and then secure the lace-up fastening to your desired comfort level. The fit should feel snug but not restrictive, allowing the leather to subtly mold to your foot over time.
These shoes are incredibly versatile and compatible with a wide range of styles:
Casual: Pair with denim jeans, shorts, or cargo pants for a relaxed look.
Smart-Casual: Excellent with chinos, corduroys, or tailored trousers.
Layering: Complements various textures like wool, cotton, and linen.
Proper care is crucial for maintaining the premium quality and longevity of your Clarks Originals Wallabee Shoes.
Cleaning the Leather: For general dirt, gently wipe the beige leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or scuffs, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for finished leathers. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Conditioning: To prevent the leather from drying out and cracking, apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically. This helps keep the leather supple and maintains its natural luster.
Crepe Sole Maintenance: The natural crepe sole can attract dust and dirt. Gently brush off dry debris with a soft-bristled brush. For stubborn marks, a dedicated crepe sole cleaning block or a small amount of warm, soapy water applied with a cloth (avoiding the leather) can be used. Do not use harsh chemicals.
Protection: Consider applying a water and stain protector spray specifically designed for leather footwear. This adds an extra layer of defense against the elements.
Storage: When not in use, store your Wallabees in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees helps maintain their original shape and absorbs moisture, extending their lifespan.
Avoid Excessive Moisture: While the leather offers some protection, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water should be avoided to protect both the leather and the crepe sole.
