FAQs
Are Clarks Wallabees true to size?
Most users find that Wallabees fit true to their standard UK size, though the moccasin construction may feel slightly roomier compared to structured leather sneakers.
Can I wear Wallabees in the rain?
Suede is sensitive to water. While a protective spray can offer some resistance, it is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent permanent water spots.
How do I clean the crepe sole?
You can clean the edges of the crepe sole using a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing as the material is porous.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The moccasin construction provides a flexible fit that often accommodates wider feet comfortably, but sizing up by a half-size can be considered if you prefer extra width.
What is the best way to store my Wallabees?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally using shoe trees to help maintain the shape of the moccasin toe.
Do the silver beads on the laces affect comfort?
No, the beads are purely decorative and are positioned to ensure they do not interfere with the lacing process or foot comfort.
Troubleshooting
Surface stains on the suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift the stain from the nap of the material.
Crepe sole appears sticky or picking up dirt
Regularly wipe the sides of the sole with a damp cloth; if the sole feels tacky, avoid storing the shoes near direct heat sources like radiators.
Difficulty putting the shoe on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before sliding your foot in to avoid collapsing the heel counter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Wallabee is made of natural suede, initial treatment with a suede-specific water repellent spray is recommended before your first wear to protect against spills and light rain. To maintain the material, use a soft suede brush to gently remove surface dust or dry mud after each use. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water. If the crepe sole becomes dirty, use a damp cloth to lightly wipe away debris, but avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the natural material. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede color from fading over time.
