Product Information
Full details
The Hey Dude Wally Work CE is designed for working professionals who prioritize long-lasting comfort without sacrificing the lightweight, casual aesthetic of a classic slip-on. By blending a water-repellent mesh upper with a high-performance slip-resistant outsole, this shoe offers significant safety and agility in demanding work environments. While it provides excellent arch support and flexibility, users should note that the specialized work-rated sole is firmer than standard casual footwear to accommodate its safety certifications.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While the materials are durable, it is recommended to hand wash them using a mild detergent and a damp cloth to protect the water-repellent coating.
Do these meet safety standards for all workplaces?
They meet ASTM F2913-19 and EN ISO 20347 standards, but you should always verify specific PPE requirements with your employer's safety policy.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the provided foam insoles are removable, making it easy to swap them for your own custom orthotics.
How do I switch the laces?
The shoes come with fixed laces pre-installed. You can remove these and thread the secondary elastic laces through the existing eyelets for a slip-on feel.
Are they waterproof?
They feature a water-repellent mesh. While they handle splashes and damp environments well, they are not intended to be fully waterproof in deep standing water.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a long shift
Swap the fixed laces for the included secondary elastic laces to allow for more natural foot swelling during the day.
Reduced traction on slick floors
Check the outsole treads for embedded dirt or debris. Clean the bottom of the shoes with a stiff brush and water to restore grip.
Insoles feel compressed
Remove the insoles, wash them in cold water, and air dry them completely. If they have lost their structural integrity, replace them with compatible foam arch-support inserts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, utilize the included elastic laces if the fixed laces feel too tight or too loose across the instep. For daily maintenance, wipe the mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary; avoid submerging the shoes in water as this can degrade the water-repellent coating. The insoles should be removed periodically to air out and shaken to remove debris. Because these shoes are CE certified, ensure they are kept free of heavy oils or debris buildup in the tread to maintain the effectiveness of the slip-resistant properties.
