FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Wallabee Cup generally offers a standard fit. While the flexible sole provides some adaptability, individuals with particularly wide feet may want to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.

What is the recommended way to break in these shoes?

Wear them for short periods indoors initially, allowing the materials to soften and conform to your foot's shape. Gradually increase the duration of wear.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the durable construction offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Applying a water-repellent spray can offer some protection against light moisture.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The product description indicates a durable build, typically suggesting quality leather or suede for the upper, though specific material composition should be checked on product packaging or the retailer's detailed listing.

How do I clean the black finish?

For a smooth leather finish, use a damp cloth and appropriate leather cleaner. For suede or nubuck, use a suede brush and specialized cleaner. Always test cleaning products on a hidden area first.

What is the main advantage of the Wallabee Cup design?

The main advantage is the combination of a classic, heritage moccasin-toe aesthetic with a modern, low-profile cup sole that offers enhanced flexibility and comfort for everyday wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel slightly tight on first wear.

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to naturally mold to your feet. Avoid wearing them outside until they feel comfortable.

Soles appear to be separating slightly.

Inspect the area carefully. If it's a minor separation and the shoe is still structurally sound, a reputable shoe repair shop may be able to re-glue it. Contact customer support if the issue is significant.

Discoloration or marks on the shoe surface.

Refer to the care instructions for appropriate cleaning methods based on the material. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
