FAQs

What type of leather is used in these shoes?

These shoes are crafted from supple Classic Calf leather, sourced from the C. F. Stead tannery in Leeds, UK.

How long does it take for the shoes to break in?

The break-in period can vary from person to person, but typically the supple leather will start molding to your foot within a few wears, with full comfort achieved after a couple of weeks of regular use.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather is durable, it is recommended to treat the shoes with a waterproofing spray suitable for leather to provide protection against moderate moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion in water.

How do I clean the smoke DMS sole?

The sole can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Classic Calf leather is supple and designed to mold to the foot, which can accommodate a range of widths over time. However, individuals with particularly wide feet may find them snug initially.

What is the warranty period for Dr. Martens shoes?

Dr. Martens typically offers a warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Dr. Martens website or your point of purchase for specific warranty details and duration.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or tight during initial wear.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Wearing thicker socks can also help stretch the leather gently.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Follow the product instructions for application and buffing.

Laces are difficult to tighten or loosen.

Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. If they are too stiff, a small amount of wax or a leather conditioner applied to the laces can help them slide more easily.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a soft brush and a specialized leather cleaner.
  • Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for calfskin leather to keep the material supple and prevent drying. Allow the conditioner to absorb before buffing.
