FAQs
Are Clarks Wallabees suitable for professional settings?
Yes, their refined leather finish makes them appropriate for smart-casual business environments.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
The Wallabees typically follow standard UK sizing; however, since they are leather and have a roomy moccasin fit, they tend to accommodate various foot widths comfortably.
Can I replace the soles when they wear out?
Because of the unique crepe construction, it is recommended to have them serviced by a professional cobbler experienced with Clarks Originals.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather is high-quality but not inherently waterproof; using a leather-safe water repellent spray is recommended if you expect to be in light rain.
What is the benefit of the crepe rubber sole?
The crepe sole is made from natural rubber, which provides exceptional comfort and natural shock absorption unlike synthetic materials.
How do I change the laces?
Simply unthread the current laces through the eyelets and re-thread your preferred set, adjusting the tension to your comfort preference.
Troubleshooting
Crepe sole picking up dirt and small debris
Gently scrub the affected areas of the rubber sole with a soft-bristled brush dampened with a mild detergent and water solution, then allow to air dry.
Leather upper looking dull or dry
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner using a clean cloth to restore moisture and shine to the material.
Laces becoming frayed or difficult to tighten
Swap the current set for the alternative pair provided in the box, or replace with standard flat laces of similar length.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Clarks Wallabees, start by selecting your preferred laces to match your outfit; the leather laces provide a classic, robust look, while the flat laces offer a cleaner, modern profile.
Care instructions for leather are essential for longevity. Regularly wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dust. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack. The crepe rubber sole should be cleaned periodically with a soft brush and mild soapy water to remove accumulated grime, ensuring the rubber remains flexible and grippy.
