Nappa Lux is a premium, classic nappa leather used in these Dr. Martens Audrick shoes. It is characterized by its exceptionally soft and smooth texture, providing a comfortable feel and refined look.
The Dr. Martens Audrick Platform Shoes feature a platform height of 1.8 inches.
No, despite the significant platform, these shoes feature an innovative two-part sole with a lightweight EVA midsole, designed to offer less weight for enhanced everyday wearability compared to traditional platform designs.
While the Goodyear-welted construction offers some resistance, Nappa Lux leather is not inherently waterproof. We recommend applying a suitable water and stain protector spray to the leather for added protection against rain and moisture.
The PVC outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and debris from the deep cleats. For stubborn grime, a mild soap solution can be used, ensuring to rinse thoroughly and air dry.
Goodyear-welted construction is a traditional method where the upper and sole are sewn together, not just glued. This process, combined with heat-sealing at 700°C and a signature welt stitch, makes the shoes exceptionally durable, water-resistant, and resoleable.
Dr. Martens leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations, gradually increasing wear time. Consider wearing thick socks or using Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to help soften the leather faster.
This is a sign the Nappa Lux leather needs conditioning. Clean the shoes thoroughly, then apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam or a suitable leather conditioner. Rub it in well and buff off any excess with a clean cloth.
For light scuffs, sometimes applying leather conditioner and gently buffing can minimize their appearance. For deeper marks, a compatible leather polish or dye might be needed, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
The PVC outsole features rugged deep cleats designed for grip. However, all soles can be slippery on ice, wet polished floors, or oily surfaces. Exercise caution on such terrains. Ensure the cleats are clean and free of embedded debris.
Your Dr. Martens Audrick Platform Shoes arrive ready to wear. Simply unlace them, slide your foot in, and lace them up to a comfortable fit. It's recommended to wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet.
These shoes are designed for adults and are generally true to size for UK shoe measurements. The material (100% leather upper, 60% leather/40% textile inner, 100% PVC sole) is suitable for various casual and semi-casual settings. The platform height is 1.8 inches. They are a unisex design.
Proper care is crucial for extending the life and maintaining the appearance of your Nappa Lux leather shoes:
