FAQs
Are these boots true to size?
Dr. Martens boots are generally known to run slightly large. It is recommended to check the Dr. Martens size guide and consider your usual fit. For the Audrick Platform Chelsea Boot in UK 7, if you are typically a UK 7.5, this size might be suitable.
How do I clean the platform sole?
Wipe the platform sole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher marks, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
Can these boots be worn in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for water resistance, these boots are not fully waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or puddles and to ensure they are properly dried if they do get wet.
What is the height of the platform sole?
The platform height varies slightly, but typically adds approximately 1.5 to 2 inches (around 4-5 cm) to the wearer's height.
How often should I condition the leather?
It is recommended to condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more frequently if the boots are exposed to harsh conditions or appear dry.
Can the platform sole be replaced?
The Goodyear welt construction allows the entire sole unit to be replaced by a cobbler, though replacing just the platform might be more complex depending on the construction.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff and uncomfortable.
This is common during the initial break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using thicker socks and applying leather conditioner to soften the material.
Leather appears dry or scuffed.
Apply a good quality leather conditioner or Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to rehydrate the leather. For scuffs, use a matching color polish or cream and buff gently.
Difficulty pulling boots on.
Ensure you are using the pull tab. If the elasticated side panels feel tight, this is normal. Applying a small amount of talcum powder or wearing thin socks can help them slide on more easily.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
The AirWair sole is designed for grip, but like all soles, may be slippery on very smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean. Consider a rubber sole protector if this is a persistent issue.
