FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The suede is treated with Scotchgard to provide water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in deep water.

How do I clean the suede?

Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. Avoid using standard shoe polish, which will ruin the suede texture.

Can I replace the soles?

The DMS sole is heat-sealed to the upper for durability, but professional cobblers can often perform sole replacements if necessary.

Do these loafers run true to size?

Dr. Martens generally run consistent with UK sizing, but the structure of the moc-toe may feel snug initially.

Where are these shoes made?

The Delapre Penny collection is crafted by cobblers in the heritage facility located in Wollaston.

Troubleshooting

Stiff fit during first wear

Dr. Martens often require a break-in period; wear them for short intervals with thick socks to gently soften the material.

Surface marks on suede

Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap of the suede.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Delapre loafers maintain their condition, focus on regular maintenance. Since the exterior is made of fine-grade suede, use a suede-specific brush to remove surface dust after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the material from hardening. While the shoes feature a protective Scotchgard treatment, reapplying a suede-safe water repellent spray every few months can help maintain this barrier. When choosing your size, remember that Dr. Martens typically have a structured fit; ensure you are wearing the socks you intend to use daily when trying them on for the first time.
