Clarks Originals prepares for the colder season and terrain that comes with it with the new Wallabee 2.0 GTX model. The signature shoe gets a new update that readies itself for the dropping temperatures. The model is coated in a water-resistant finish.
It retains the usual Vibram sole unit foundation to provide comfort and features an upper made using a blend of suede and textile materials. In terms of the branding details, the shoe has three branded hangtags that are seen beside the laces at the forefoot section. The heel marks a contrasting accent as there is a bright orange heel tab that provides wearers an easy slip-on and off versatility, rounding out the model.
