Clarks Wallabees Appreciation GOAT

[ahat]

Retail here in Australia was 500aud hahaha theyre selling it for 250 aud now and its the last pair in my size, still deciding if I should pull the trigger or just cop 2 pairs of regular suede wallabees. Is the quality great for the veg tans? Its made in italy, right?

Oh damn didn't realize you're down under.

Ya they're made in Italy, I'm pleased with my pair tbh. I'd pull the trigger, I don't see them on too many sites but suede Wally's will always be around.

Wearing my low top tan suede's right now. Use to work at Clark's outlet. Nothing was better than that 50% discount and free pair of shoes every year.

Gonna check here again before I post some other places, but anyone interested in the MF Doom Wallabees? Blue/Orange, US11.

Really feeling this pair.

Clarks sent me a pair, real nice in person.

 

[sylvestermcgrizzly]

like that color and the navy pair as well. Hopefully the brown pair sticks around a bit. Navy pair already sold out in my size

Anybody have any info on the Clarks Patta collaboration? Might have to get these

 

[slaughterx]

Copped the blue pair from Bloomingdales, 20% off (25 if you have their card). Clark's site is doing 25% off for students and teachers but not sure if it works on these. Might get the brown pair later if they go on sale for less. These are my first pair of lows... are ankle rolls more likely with these?

 

[ahat]

No, they're a casual shoe. You not driving to the basket rocking these

 

[slaughterx]

Man I twist my ankle in highs all the time just walking.

I still find it weird how wallabees, at least around my way and when friends are concerned, are out the ordinary.

I love them. Super comfy and I actually appreciate the shape. It's different.

They reached their peak of popularity in the late 90s, early 2000s, back when Wu-Tang was really poppin... that's what put me and my friends on.

 

[slaughterx]

Got my blue pair from Bloomingdales today... they are dope but my right shoe has a glue stain that kinda messes up the print...

 

[slaughterx]

Returned the glue stained paid to Bloomies and copped all 3 from MLTD

I remember lugz & havana joe had their own versions of wallos in 97-98, the gator shoe store had them. Question for actual old heads (which is just about 100% of NT I think?) who had Clarks in the 90's & early 00's, how long are you wallabees lasting? I've gone with the Redlands & Natalies for about the past 5 years or so & the quality just doesn't compare to the Clarks I had back in the days. My wallabees from the late 90's & 2002 I think it was would have easily lasted over 10 years while the new stuff breaks down & is made of all kinds of cheap material.

With the crepe soles getting so dirty quickly, I've never kept a pair of Wallys for more than a few years. Also, the soles do get worn down over time making walking in the rain slippery.

Just recently got these from j crew for 70$

 

[friscostylez]

These shoes ugly AF. Looks like elevator shoes.

 

[slaughterx]

Never heard of elevator shoes... you mean platform shoes?

I got a pair of blue leather hi's from the early 2000s I still wear. Sole is still good but ugly as sin lol but the leather on tgat pair has yet to be matched by any pair I own of 11 pairs.
