Clarks Wallabees generally fit true to size. If you're between sizes, consider trying the smaller size first due to the soft suede upper, which can conform to your foot over time. This specific pair is a UK size 12.
It is not recommended to wear suede Wallabees in heavy rain. Suede is susceptible to water damage and staining. Always pre-treat with a water and stain protector, and if they do get wet, air dry them naturally.
The natural crepe sole is made from layers of coagulated latex rubber. This material provides excellent cushioning, flexibility, and a distinctive look, but it can pick up dirt easily and may show wear over time.
Regular light brushing with a suede brush after each wear can help maintain their appearance. Deeper cleaning for stains or dirt should be done as needed, typically every few weeks or months depending on usage.
No, suede should never be polished with standard shoe polish. Use only specific suede cleaners, protectors, and brushes designed for napped leathers to avoid damage.
Wallabees offer a comfortable, unstructured fit, and while they provide cushioning, they are not typically known for significant arch support. If you require extra support, you may consider adding a thin, supportive insole.
Crepe soles are highly flexible and comfortable but can be softer than traditional rubber soles, meaning they may show wear more quickly, especially with heavy use on rough surfaces. Regular care and avoiding abrasive terrains will prolong their life.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a suede eraser or cleaner.
Gently rub the soles with a damp cloth or a crepe sole cleaning block. For stickiness, avoid direct heat and ensure proper storage.
The Wallabee is known for its comfort, but new suede may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the material to conform to your foot.
Ensure you are tying a proper knot. The waxy laces offer good grip, but double-knotting can provide extra security if needed.
Regular cleaning with a suede brush can help. If significant fading occurs, a professional suede dye or restorer may be considered, but proceed with caution.
Your Clarks Wallabee shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply lace them up to your desired tightness. The waxy laces ensure a secure fit that stays put.
