FAQs
What age range are these boots designed for?
These Dr. Martens 1460 boots are specifically designed for infants, providing appropriate sizing and support for their age group.
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these boots are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water to protect the leather and sparkly finish.
How do I clean the sparkly part of the boot?
To clean the sparkly glitter finish, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners, brushes, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the glitter.
Do I need to condition the leather?
The smooth, shiny leather can benefit from occasional conditioning to maintain its suppleness. However, use a very mild leather conditioner and avoid applying it directly over the glittered areas unless specifically recommended for such finishes. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Are these boots heavy for an infant?
Dr. Martens boots are known for their sturdy construction. While designed for infants, they provide robust support. If you have concerns about weight, observe your infant's comfort and ease of movement during wear.
Can these boots be worn year-round?
These boots are versatile for various seasons, offering good protection in cooler weather. However, due to the leather material, they might be less breathable in very hot climates. Consider your local climate when deciding on year-round wear.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable for my infant.
Dr. Martens leather can take a little time to break in. Encourage your infant to wear them for short periods initially. Ensure the size is correct; boots that are too small or too large can also cause discomfort.
Sparkle seems to be dulling or flaking off.
The sparkly glitter finish requires gentle care. Avoid harsh scrubbing or using abrasive cleaners. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth only. Exposure to rough surfaces or excessive rubbing can also affect the glitter over time.
Difficult to get the boots on my infant's feet.
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before attempting to put the boot on. The AirWair tab should be used to gently pull the boot up. A thin sock can also sometimes help the foot slide in more easily.
