FAQs

How do I clean my Dr. Martens boots?

Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.

How often should I condition my boots?

Condition your boots every few months, or more often if the leather feels dry. Regular conditioning prevents cracking and keeps the leather supple.

What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

Wear socks that provide comfort and cushioning. Thicker socks can help with the break-in process.

Can I wear these boots in the rain?

Yes, but be sure to clean and condition them afterward. Consider using a leather protectant spray for added water resistance.

How do I store my boots when I'm not wearing them?

Store them in a cool, dry place. Stuff them with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.

My boots are creasing in the same places. Is this normal?

Yes, creasing is normal and a natural part of leather. It adds character to your boots and shows that they are being worn.

What is Quilon leather?

Quilon leather is a corrected grain leather with rich color and contrasting base. It is designed to develop a vintage appearance with wear.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff and uncomfortable initially.

Wear the boots gradually, breaking them in slowly. Use thick socks or shoe stretchers to help soften the leather.

Leather shows signs of wear and tear or minor scratches.

Use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair product to minimize the appearance of scratches and maintain leather quality.

The sole feels slippery.

Rough the soles lightly with sandpaper to improve grip, especially on wet surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  3. Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris regularly. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for corrected grain leather.
  4. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather moisturized and prevent cracking. Do this every few months or as needed.
