FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
It is recommended to consult the Dr. Martens size chart and consider trying the boots on if possible. Many users find they fit true to size, but personal preference for fit can vary.
Can I wear these boots in heavy rain?
The boots have a water-resistant finish, making them suitable for light rain or damp conditions. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, additional waterproofing treatments may be beneficial, but they are not designed for extreme weather.
How do I clean the pink nubuck leather?
Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For stains, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and wipe clean. Always test cleaning products on a small, hidden area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
Are these boots suitable for work?
Their durable construction and grippy outsole make them suitable for many casual work environments. However, they may not meet specific safety requirements for certain industrial jobs.
What is the difference between the included laces?
One set of laces typically matches the boot color for a subtle look, while the secondary set offers a bolder colorway to customize the boot's appearance.
How often should I condition the leather?
Conditioning frequency depends on wear and climate. Aim to condition every few months or when the leather begins to feel dry to maintain its texture and flexibility.
Can I polish nubuck leather?
Nubuck leather is not typically polished as it has a velvety texture. Instead, use specialized nubuck cleaners and conditioners to maintain its appearance.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry
Apply a dedicated nubuck conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Ensure you are using the correct cleaning products for nubuck leather.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Clean the outsoles to remove any embedded debris. The deep cleating provides grip, but smooth or polished surfaces may require slower movement.
Laces fray or break
Replace laces with a new pair. If using the secondary laces, ensure they are compatible in length and thickness.
Water resistance seems reduced
Reapply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for nubuck leather. Ensure the product is suitable for the WP treatment.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher marks, use a damp cloth and mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid excessive soaking.
- Conditioning: Apply a nubuck-specific conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying. Test conditioners on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Regularly reapply a water-resistant spray suitable for nubuck leather to maintain its protective qualities.
- Drying: If the boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the leather.
