Jacopo De Carli taps Alberto Vinciguerra and Michele Pirrone from the Vibram team for a new iteration of the 'Clarks Originals Wallabees' using wax and heavy patterning. The first design is a high-top silhouette with toggle laces, perforations in the style of cow prints, and a red wax coating. The shoes are immersed in a Formech Vacuum Forming Machine to create the wax-coated appearance.

 A shiny low-top pair of laceless Wallabees with skeletal outlines on the toe box and stacked bulbous panels along the laterals are also offered alongside the red version. The second iteration is covered in a gold color scheme with a textured black outsole to match.

While no release date has been confirmed, interested consumers can visit Jacopo's Instagram to preview the new duo.
