To celebrate a shoe style that has shaken things up from day one, Clarks has announced the first-ever Wallabee Day, which will take place every year on April 26th, encouraging the global community of shoe wearers to share their love of the iconic shoe.

What is Wallabee Day?

Wallabee Day is dedicated to the cult-classic shoe from the brand Clarks. The Wallabee style has been well-loved since its inception, so much so that an entire day is being dedicated to celebrating this shoe style.

When is Wallabee Day?

2024 marks the inaugural Wallabee Day that will be celebrated on April 26th of each year going forward.

How to Celebrate Wallabee Day?

Celebrate Wallabee Day by wearing your favorite Clarks Wallabee shoes. Here are some styles for the whole family:

History of The Wallabee

Crafted in 1968, the Wallabee’s design philosophy was rooted in ultimate comfort, with its unprecedented foot-shaped toe, true moccasin construction, and spongy natural crepe sole. However, what no one at the time could have foreseen is how global style communities have adopted, adapted, and embraced it, pushing the shoe to icon status from its humble beginnings in Somerset. From football terraces in the UK to the streets of New York and Shibuya, Tokyo, the Wallabee is a shoe that is just as at home in school halls as it is in Jamaica’s dancehall scene. It has adorned album covers of hip-hop royalty and Brit-Pop legends.
