FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper of the Clarks Originals Wallabee is crafted from premium, butter-soft leather, specifically in a timeless brown (beeswax) hue.

How do I clean the natural crepe sole?

To clean the crepe sole, use a specialized crepe cleaning brush or block. Gently rub the affected areas to lift dirt and rejuvenate the surface. Avoid using water or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the crepe.

Are Wallabees suitable for wet weather?

While the leather offers some resistance, the Wallabee is not waterproof. The natural crepe sole may also offer reduced grip on very wet or icy surfaces. It's best to avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture, and use a protective spray for the leather.

What kind of occasions are these shoes suitable for?

The Clarks Originals Wallabee is a versatile shoe suitable for a wide range of smart-casual and relaxed occasions. This includes everyday wear, social gatherings, weekend outings, and business-casual environments.

How should I care for the leather?

Regularly wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner every few weeks or months to keep it moisturized and prevent cracking. A protective spray can also help guard against stains and moisture.

Are Clarks Originals Wallabees true to size?

Info needed: General sizing advice for Clarks Wallabees. Often, they are considered to fit true to size for UK measurements, but personal preference for fit can vary. It is recommended to try them on or consult a Clarks sizing chart if unsure.

Do Wallabees offer good arch support?

Info needed: Specific details on arch support. The natural crepe sole provides cushioning and flexibility, which contributes to overall comfort, but dedicated arch support might vary. If you require significant arch support, insoles can often be added.

Troubleshooting

Crepe sole feels sticky or looks very dirty.

The natural crepe sole can become sticky and collect debris. Use a crepe brush or a crepe cleaning block, available at most shoe care stores, to gently rub away accumulated dirt and restore the sole's texture.

Leather upper shows scuffs or appears dry.

Clean the leather with a damp cloth, then apply a small amount of quality leather conditioner or cream. Gently rub it in with a soft cloth and buff for a refreshed look. For minor scuffs, a matching leather polish can help.

Shoes feel uncomfortable during initial wear.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods around the house. The leather will gradually soften and mold to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size; if discomfort persists, consult a sizing guide or a shoe specialist.

Laces frequently come undone.

Ensure you are tying a proper 'reef knot' (square knot) rather than a 'granny knot'. If the waxy laces are very smooth, a double knot can provide extra security. Alternatively, consider replacing them with slightly more textured laces of a similar style.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic, Timeless Design: The distinctive Wallabee silhouette offers enduring style that remains fashionable.
  • Premium Leather Construction: Butter-soft leather upper ensures a crafted, high-quality look and feel.
  • Signature Crepe Sole Comfort: Natural rubber crepe sole provides excellent cushioning and flexibility for all-day wear.
  • Versatile Aesthetic: Easily pairs with various smart-casual and relaxed outfits, making it a versatile wardrobe essential.
  • Authentic Craftsmanship: Features waxy laces and dual branded fobs that highlight its genuine heritage.

Cons

  • Crepe Sole Maintenance: Natural crepe material can attract dirt and debris easily, requiring regular cleaning to maintain its appearance.
  • Limited Wet Weather Grip: Crepe soles may offer less traction on very wet or slippery surfaces compared to other sole types.
  • Leather Care Required: The premium leather upper needs specific care and conditioning to maintain its appearance and longevity.
  • Distinctive Style: The unique aesthetic might not align with all personal style preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Breaking In Your Wallabees

While the leather is soft, new shoes often benefit from a short breaking-in period. Wear your Wallabees for shorter durations initially to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape. The natural crepe sole will also become more flexible with wear.

Compatibility

  • Outfit Compatibility: The Wallabee's minimalist yet distinctive design makes it highly compatible with a wide range of clothing, from denim and chinos to more tailored casual wear. Its brown (beeswax) leather complements earthy tones, blues, and neutral palettes.
  • Environmental Compatibility: Best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. The natural crepe sole is known for its comfort on hard surfaces but can be susceptible to damage or reduced grip on very wet or abrasive terrains.

Product Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Wallabees.

  1. Leather Upper Care:
  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner.
  • Conditioning: Apply a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent drying or cracking. Follow the product instructions for application.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially before wearing in inclement weather.
  1. Crepe Sole Care:
  • Cleaning: The natural crepe sole can pick up dirt and become sticky. Use a soft brush or a specialized crepe sole cleaning block to gently remove debris and rejuvenate the surface.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh chemical cleaners on the crepe sole as it can degrade the material.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  1. Laces and Fobs: Check laces periodically for wear and replace if necessary. The branded fobs can be cleaned with a damp cloth if they become soiled.
