FAQs

What is the 'Buzz' sole?

The Buzz sole is Dr. Martens' signature chunky, barrel-edge sole, designed to provide a distinct silhouette and durable wear.

How do I care for the Hair-On leather?

Care involves gentle brushing with a soft brush, spot cleaning with a damp cloth, and using specialized protectors for hair-on leather. Avoid traditional leather conditioners on the hair sections.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are made of leather and have durable soles, offering some resistance. However, they are not fully waterproof, especially the hair-on material. It's advisable to protect them from heavy rain.

What does '5-Eye Shoe' refer to?

'5-Eye' refers to the number of pairs of eyelets (holes) for the laces on each side of the shoe, a common lacing configuration for Dr. Martens boots and shoes.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While durable, it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain, as the hair-on leather can be sensitive to excessive moisture. Applying a protective spray can help mitigate this.

What is the pattern on the shoes?

The specific model features a floral pattern integrated into the hair-on leather, providing a unique visual element.

What is the main benefit of the padded collar?

The padded collar is designed to enhance comfort by providing extra cushioning around the ankle, reducing potential rubbing or discomfort during wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels stiff or uncomfortable.

Dr. Martens often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Using thicker socks can also help stretch the material gently.

Hair on the leather is becoming matted or dirty.

Gently brush the hair-on material with a soft, dry brush. For dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

While the tread offers grip, some surfaces may still be challenging. Ensure the sole is clean from debris. For increased grip on specific surfaces, consider aftermarket sole grips.

Color transfer from the hair-on leather.

This is rare but possible, especially when new or wet. Ensure socks are dark-colored initially. Allow shoes to air out before wearing. If transfer persists, consider a specialized protective spray for hair-on leather.

Care:

The Hair-On leather requires careful maintenance to preserve its unique texture and appearance:

  1. Brushing: Regularly brush the hair-on leather with a soft, dry brush to remove dust and debris. Brush in the direction of the hair.
  2. Cleaning: For stains or dirt, use a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the material. For stubborn marks, a specialized hair-on cleaner may be used, following the product's instructions.
  3. Conditioning: Do not use traditional leather conditioners on the hair-on sections. If the leather base requires conditioning, use products specifically designed for smooth leather, being careful to avoid the hair.
  4. Protection: Consider using a protective spray designed for hair-on leather to help repel water and stains, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in a shoe bag to protect the finish.
