FAQs

What is the DMXL sole made of?

The DMXL sole is a hybrid construction combining lightweight EVA for cushioning with hardwearing PVC pods for durability, featuring an exaggerated tread.

How do I clean the distressed patent leather?

Clean the distressed patent leather with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for patent leather. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

While the elasticated gusset offers some flexibility, Dr. Martens generally run true to size. If you have very wide feet, trying them on in person is recommended.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The patent leather offers some water resistance, but these boots are not fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water.

What is the benefit of the Soft Wair insole?

The Soft Wair insole is designed to provide enhanced comfort and support, cushioning your foot with every step.

How do the front zip and elastic gusset work together?

The front zip allows for a secure and modern closure, while the elasticated gusset on the side ensures a comfortable fit and makes the boots easier to pull on and off.

Do these boots come in other colors?

This specific model is presented in black. Please check the product listing for available color variations.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather boots. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using a leather conditioner designed for patent leather to help soften the material.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and try zipping again.

Sole shows signs of wear.

The hybrid EVA and PVC construction is durable, but heavy use can cause wear. Clean the sole regularly to prevent dirt buildup impacting performance. For significant wear, consult a cobbler specializing in Dr. Martens.

Discolored patches on the patent leather.

This may be due to improper cleaning or exposure to certain chemicals. Use a cleaner specifically formulated for patent leather. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions:
