FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather uppers offer some resistance to light moisture, these boots are not fully waterproof. For wet conditions, we recommend applying a waterproof protective spray designed for leather footwear.

How do I choose the correct size?

Dr. Martens typically run true to size, but if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to size down. The leather will stretch and mold to your foot over time. It's always best to try them on if possible.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, standard Dr. Martens boot laces can be purchased separately if you wish to replace them or change their color.

Are the glitter boots suitable for all seasons?

Yes, their durable construction makes them suitable for various weather conditions. In colder weather, pair them with thick socks for added warmth. For extremely hot weather, the leather might feel warm.

What is the recommended cleaning product for the glitter finish?

For general cleaning, a soft, damp cloth is best. For dedicated care, look for leather care products that specify compatibility with glitter or specialty finishes. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

What is the boot height for these boots?

The boot height is 12cm for size 31, with a flat heel of 2.5cm/1". Note that boot height may vary slightly with different sizes.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too stiff or uncomfortable during initial wear.

This is common with new leather boots. Wear them for short periods, gradually increasing wear time. Use thick socks and consider applying a leather conditioner specifically designed to soften new leather.

Glitter appears to be flaking off.

While Dr. Martens are built tough, excessive rubbing or harsh cleaning can affect the glitter. Handle with care, avoid abrasive cleaning, and consider a protective spray suitable for glitter finishes.

Difficulty putting on or taking off the boots.

Utilize both the laces and the zip fastening. Loosen the laces adequately for a comfortable fit, then use the side zip for everyday convenience. Ensure the zip is fully open when putting on or removing.

Boots are scuffed or discolored.

For leather areas, gently clean and apply a suitable leather polish or conditioner in a matching color. For glitter areas, avoid abrasive cleaners. For significant damage, consult a professional shoe repair specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Initial Try-On: Unzip the boots and loosen the laces. Slide your foot in, ensuring your toes have ample space.
  2. Lace Adjustment: Tighten the laces evenly, starting from the bottom eyelets upwards, until the boot feels snug but not constricting. Tie them securely.
  3. Break-in Period: Wear the boots for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape. This helps prevent discomfort and blisters.

Compatibility

These boots are a versatile statement piece, compatible with a wide range of styles:

  • Casual: Pair with jeans, leggings, or casual dresses for an edgy, everyday look.
  • Festival/Concert Wear: Their durability and unique glitter finish make them perfect for standing out in crowd.
  • Unexpected Contrast: Use them to add a rebellious touch to more formal or traditionally feminine outfits.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your glitter boots:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for glitter finishes. Avoid harsh scrubbing which could damage the glitter.
  2. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  3. Conditioning: Use a Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam or similar leather conditioner specifically formulated for glitter or specialty leathers. Apply sparingly to the leather sections, avoiding direct application to the glitter if not recommended by the product.
  4. Protection: Consider using a water and stain protector spray designed for leather and delicate finishes to guard against elements. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use boot trees to help maintain their shape.
