FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally run true to standard UK sizing, though the suede may stretch slightly over time to fit the shape of your foot.

Can I wear Wallabees in the rain?

It is not recommended. Suede is porous, and rain can permanently mark the material. Always use a protective spray to increase resistance.

How do I clean the silver beads?

Use a soft, dry jewelry polishing cloth to wipe the beads clean, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the surrounding suede.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The moccasin construction offers a naturally generous width, making them more accommodating than most narrow-fit dress shoes.

How long will the crepe sole last?

The longevity of the sole depends on your walking habits and the surfaces you frequent, but with proper care, it offers excellent durability for lifestyle use.

Troubleshooting

Visible water spots on suede

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat sources, then gently brush with a suede brush to restore the texture.

Crepe sole is sticky or picks up dirt

Sprinkle a small amount of talcum powder on the soles if they become tacky, or use a damp cloth followed by a soft brush to remove stubborn debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Wallabees in top condition, proper care is essential. Given the suede upper, we highly recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before your first wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap of the material.
  2. Stain Removal: For minor marks, use a suede eraser or a dry, clean cloth to gently buff the area.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  4. Sole Maintenance: If the crepe sole collects pebbles or grit, use a dull edge to gently pry them out to maintain a smooth walking surface.
