FAQs
How do I clean the suede material of my Meare Walla shoes?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser or a cleaner specifically designed for suede is recommended. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?
Suede is not naturally waterproof. It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray before wearing them in damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or standing water to prevent damage and staining.
What is the benefit of the anatomical footbed?
The anatomical footbed is designed to conform to the natural shape of your foot, providing enhanced support, cushioning, and stability. This helps reduce fatigue and increases comfort during prolonged wear.
Can I replace the laces if they get worn out?
Yes, the round tonal laces can be replaced. Look for replacement laces of similar length and diameter to maintain the shoe's original look and fit.
How do I ensure the EVA sole maintains its integrity?
Regularly clean the sole with a damp cloth to remove grit and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the material. While durable, sharp objects or abrasive surfaces can cause damage, so be mindful of where you step.
Is the Meare Walla true to size?
Clarks Originals typically run true to size. This specific guide is for a UK size 11. If you are unsure, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a size guide.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Gently brush the entire surface with a soft suede brush to lift dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.
Water spots or liquid stains on suede.
Allow the area to dry naturally. Once dry, gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher spots, a specialized suede cleaner designed for water stains may be needed, applied carefully as per instructions.
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knot (e.g., a double knot). You can also try re-lacing the shoes to ensure even tension across all eyelets.
Foot odor developing.
Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Use shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees. Ensure you wear clean socks to absorb moisture.
Sole is dirty or slippery.
Wipe the EVA sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove surface dirt. Ensure the sole is dry before wearing. For increased traction on smooth surfaces, ensure the tread is clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Meare Walla shoes come ready to wear. Simply unlace, insert your foot, and use the classic lace fastening to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Adjust the tension of the round tonal laces to your preference, ensuring they are snug but not overly tight, to support the foot's natural movement.
Compatibility
- User: Adult males seeking low shoes. This specific model is UK size 11.
- Style: Highly compatible with smart-casual, business casual, and relaxed everyday attire.
- Footwear: Designed to be worn with socks for optimal comfort and hygiene due to the textile lining.
Care
- Suede Protection: Before first wear, and periodically thereafter, apply a quality suede protector spray. This helps repel water and resist stains.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a suede eraser or a designated suede cleaner according to the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Avoid Water: Suede is delicate. Avoid wearing your Meare Walla in heavy rain or wet conditions without prior protection, as water can stain and damage the material.
