FAQs

Are the Wallabee GTX shoes truly waterproof?

Yes, they feature a GORE-TEX® membrane, which provides a high level of waterproofing to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners in an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry naturally.

What is the benefit of the Vibram® sole?

Vibram® soles are known for their durability, excellent traction, and resistance to wear, making the shoes suitable for various surfaces.

Can I wear these shoes in heavy rain or snow?

While waterproof, they are best suited for moderate wet conditions. For very heavy rain or deep snow, additional protective measures or specialized footwear might be more appropriate.

How do I maintain the waterproofing over time?

Periodically reapply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for suede and GORE-TEX® footwear to maintain optimal performance.

What kind of socks are best with these shoes?

Any socks that offer comfort are suitable. For maximum benefit in wet conditions, consider moisture-wicking socks.

Are there other color or material options available?

Yes, this model is available in various colors and sometimes different materials. Please check the product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or stained

Use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Water seeping through

Ensure GORE-TEX® membrane is intact and not damaged. Reapply a suitable waterproofing spray for suede. Check seams for any breaches.

Soles feel slippery

Clean the Vibram® soles with water and a brush to restore grip. Ensure there is no oil or grease residue on the soles.

Shoes feel stiff after getting wet

Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
