Share
The Clarks Wallabee is the ultimate dressers shoe which now gets treated to some new seasonal hues including Green Suede & Burnt Orange.
You probably remember them "No Trainers" signs dotted around the entrances of nightclubs & even some pubs going back to the 1980s & 90s when the general perception of trainer wearers were troublemakers. Not all trainer wearers' were the stereotypical Stanley knife wielding lunatics but the point was any type of sportswear was deemed a no go as far as the "night-life" venues were concerned. With tuxedo wearing bouncers and strict no trainers policies, rocking up to your local nightclub in a pair of box fresh creps was a spell for disaster. You simply weren't getting in. It was the smarter dressers that found a loop hole in this anti-trainer policy. You didn't want to wear a pair of shoes you would wear with a suit, bizarrely this is what the clubs wanted you to wear, you wanted something that looked cool. It was the classic Clarks Wallabee that became the go to shoe for ravers & revellers and with that a completely new look was born. The Clarks Wallabee now arrives in some seasonal colourways such as burnt orange & green suede. Above: The Clarks Originals Wallabee in burnt orange now available from 80s Casual Classics. Nightclub policies might have dramatically changed over the last 40 years but the Clarks Wallabee still remains the footwear king when it comes to a comfy trainer alternative. The classic 90s Britpop look of cords, check shirts and Clarks on feet still looks just as cool today as it did back in the mid 90s. With more heritage & subculture than you're average shoe, we'll probably still be wearing Wallabees in 30 years time. Since it was first introduced back in 1964 the Clarks Wallabee continues to remain a fan favourite. The moccasin inspired crepe soled shoe has seen all kinds of celebrity endorsements from the Wu Tang Clan to Wigan's very own Richard Ashcroft. As new trainer trends come and go the Clarks Wallabee just kind of stays. Above: The Clarks Originals Wallabee in burnt orange now available from 80s Casual Classics. The classic crepe soled shoe now arrives at 80s Casual Classics in some seasonal colourways.

It's a personal choice, but either way the Wallabee will look just as good for them slightly smarter occasions.
