Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rick Owens DRKSHDW x Dr. Martens Mules remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the mules indoors with thick socks for short periods initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For tougher stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner.
- Hardware Care: Keep the silver-tone hardware clean and dry to prevent tarnishing; avoid exposing the metal to harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or cracking.
- Compatibility: These fit standard sizing for adult UK 9, but consider the structure of the mule if you prefer a looser slip-on fit versus a tightly laced secure fit.
