FAQs

How do I best clean my black suede Wallabee shoes?

For routine cleaning, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning or scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective, followed by brushing. Always apply a suede protector spray for preventative care.

Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?

The suede upper is not inherently waterproof. While an applied suede protector spray can offer some resistance, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent staining and damage to the material.

What is a crepe sole and what are its benefits?

A crepe sole is made from natural rubber, known for its flexibility, comfort, and shock-absorbing properties. It provides excellent cushioning and a distinctive look, contributing to the Wallabee's signature comfortable stride.

Do Clarks Wallabees run true to size?

Clarks shoes generally fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, it's often advisable to try the larger size for comfort.

Can I wear these shoes with formal attire?

Clarks Wallabees are considered a versatile shoe that bridges casual and smart-casual styles. While not typically recommended for very formal events, they can be paired stylishly with business casual outfits, blazers, chinos, or smart trousers for a sophisticated yet relaxed look.

How do I prevent the crepe sole from getting dirty so quickly?

While the crepe sole naturally attracts some dirt, regular cleaning with a dedicated crepe brush can help. Avoid walking through excessively dusty or muddy areas, and consider cleaning the soles after each wear to maintain their appearance.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser, then brush again.

Crepe sole is very dirty or sticky.

Use a specialized crepe cleaning brush or a small amount of mild soap and water on a cloth to gently clean the sole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Clarks Wallabees typically offer immediate comfort, but a short 'break-in' period may be beneficial for some. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot.

Suede has water stains.

If a water stain occurs, allow the shoes to dry completely. Then, use a suede brush to gently brush the affected area. For more severe stains, a professional suede cleaner may be required.

  • Styling: Compatible with a wide range of casual to smart-casual outfits. They pair well with trousers, chinos, denim, and even some relaxed tailored looks.

Care

Maintaining your black suede Wallabees is crucial to preserve their appearance and longevity. Follow these tips for optimal care:

  • Suede Protection: Before first wear, and periodically thereafter, apply a quality suede protector spray to guard against water and stains. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dust and light dirt. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used.
  • Crepe Sole Care: The natural crepe sole can pick up dirt easily. Use a specialized crepe brush or a damp cloth (avoiding harsh chemicals) to clean the sole and restore its natural texture.
  • Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Storage: Store your Wallabees in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help them retain their shape and absorb moisture.
