FAQs

What type of leather is used in the Lowell shoes?

The Lowell shoes are constructed from Orleans leather, which is a lightly textured, waxy pull-up leather known for its heavy handle and soft, supple feel. It develops a unique character with wear.

How do I clean and care for my Orleans leather shoes?

Clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For maintenance, use Dr. Martens Shoe Polish to condition and protect the leather. Buff with a soft cloth after application.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the Lowell shoes blend style with comfort features like a padded collar and a durable BEN outsole, making them suitable for everyday urban wear.

What does 'Goodyear-welted' mean?

Goodyear-welted means the shoe's upper and sole are stitched together and heat-sealed, reinforced with a signature welt stitch. This construction method ensures exceptional durability and longevity.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the BEN outsole offers good traction, Orleans leather is not inherently waterproof. It's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and consider using a protective spray for added water resistance.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Dr. Martens generally have a consistent sizing. However, it is always recommended to consult sizing charts and try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between individuals and styles.

What is the benefit of the moc toe design?

The moc toe design is a classic footwear feature that adds a refined aesthetic and often contributes to a comfortable fit by conforming naturally to the shape of the foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable

This is common with new, high-quality leather. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period. Gentle flexing of the shoe can also help.

Scuff marks on the Orleans leather

Light scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, apply a small amount of Dr. Martens Shoe Polish or a leather conditioner specifically designed for waxy pull-up leathers, then buff.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the leather parts or the sole. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. A small amount of talcum powder or a leather conditioner applied to the tongue or inner seams might help.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris.
