FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The leather offers some water resistance, but these shoes are not fully waterproof. Using a leather protectant spray will enhance water resistance.
How do I break in my Dr. Martens?
Wear the shoes for short periods at first, gradually increasing the wear time. Use leather conditioners to soften the leather.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every few months, or more frequently if you live in a dry climate.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, you can replace the laces with any standard boot laces of the appropriate length.
What kind of socks should I wear?
Wear socks that provide cushioning and moisture-wicking properties, especially during the break-in period.
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, once broken in, these shoes can be worn all day. Consider using insoles for added comfort if needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.
Allow time for the shoes to break in. Consider wearing thicker socks or using a shoe stretcher.
Leather is scuffed or scratched.
Use a leather polish in a matching color to cover up scratches and scuffs.
