FAQs
Are these suitable for rainy weather?
Suede is not naturally waterproof. While protective sprays help, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent permanent water staining.
How do I determine my size?
The Wallabee Lite generally fits true to size for standard UK foot measurements. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for sock thickness.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, you should never submerge suede trainers in water or place them in a washing machine, as this will ruin the material.
What is the primary difference between the Wallabee and Wallabee Lite?
The Lite version features updated, lightweight components in the sole and internal structure, making them significantly easier to wear for long periods compared to the heavier original.
How often should I use a suede protector?
It is recommended to reapply a quality suede protector spray every few months, or more frequently if you wear the shoes daily in varying weather conditions.
Troubleshooting
Suede has developed water spots
Allow the shoe to dry completely, then use a suede brush to gently buff the affected area to restore the nap.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt particles without damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Wallabee Lite Trainers last, apply a high-quality suede protector spray before wearing them for the first time; this creates a barrier against water and dirt. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the suede to harden or crack. For daily cleaning, use a suede brush to gently remove surface dust or dry mud. Avoid getting the suede saturated with water. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or stuffing to maintain their shape when not in use.
