FAQs
How do I protect my suede shoes from water and stains?
We recommend applying a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear and reapplying periodically. This creates a barrier against moisture and stains.
Are the **Meare Walla** shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, with their anatomical footbed, lightweight EVA sole, and breathable textile lining, they are designed for maximum comfort during extended periods of wear.
What is an anatomical footbed?
An anatomical footbed is contoured to the natural shape of your foot, providing arch support and cushioning in key areas for enhanced comfort and stability.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
Suede is not naturally waterproof and can be damaged by heavy rain. It's best to avoid wet conditions to preserve the quality and appearance of your Meare Walla shoes.
How do I clean the EVA sole?
The EVA sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
What is the significance of the crepe rand?
The crepe rand is a design detail that connects the upper to the sole, often seen in Clarks Originals styles. It signifies a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern construction, adding to the shoe's unique aesthetic.
Are these shoes true to size?
Generally, Clarks Originals shoes like the Meare Walla are designed to fit true to size. However, individual foot shapes vary, so trying them on is always recommended for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For tougher marks, try a suede eraser.
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the classic lace fastening. Loosen or tighten the laces evenly across the foot to achieve a comfortable, secure fit.
Creasing or loss of shape over time.
When not in use, insert cedar shoe trees into your Meare Walla shoes. This helps absorb moisture and maintain the original shape, reducing creasing.
Squeaking sound from the sole.
Info needed: [This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between parts of the sole or footbed. Try removing the footbed (if removable) and cleaning underneath, or applying a small amount of baby powder.] If non-removable, ensure they are fully dry.
Laces frequently come untied.
Ensure you are using a secure knot (e.g., a double knot). If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, similar tonal laces.

Proper care for your premium suede Meare Walla shoes will ensure their longevity and maintain their sophisticated appearance.
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. This helps repel water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner (following product instructions) can be used. Avoid excessive rubbing.

- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help them retain their shape and absorb moisture.
