FAQs

How often should I condition my Dr. Martens boots?

Condition your boots every few months, or more frequently if you wear them often or live in a dry climate.

Are Dr. Martens boots waterproof?

While the boots are water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof. Using a leather protector spray can enhance water resistance.

How do I break in my Dr. Martens boots?

Wear your boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. You can also use thick socks to help stretch the leather.

Can I use any leather cleaner on my boots?

Use a cleaner specifically designed for leather. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that could damage the leather.

What kind of socks should I wear with my boots?

Wear thick socks, such as wool or cotton socks, to provide cushioning and comfort, especially during the break-in period.

How do I care for the AirWair™ sole?

Clean the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid exposing the sole to extreme temperatures or harsh chemicals.

Where are Dr. Martens 1460 boots made?

The Made in England Vintage 1460 boots are handcrafted in the original Dr. Martens factory in Northamptonshire, England.
