FAQs
Are these sandals true to size?
Dr. Martens footwear generally runs true to size, but personal fit can vary. Refer to the size chart and consider the break-in period when assessing fit.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is a chunky Quad Shore sole, typically made from durable, slip-resistant rubber.
Can these sandals be worn in wet conditions?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the faux leather upper is not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or water.
How do I clean the faux croc-embossed leather?
Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water.
What is the heel height of the Clarissa Quad sandal?
The Quad Shore sole typically adds approximately 1.5 to 2 inches (around 4-5 cm) to the overall height.
Do these sandals have arch support?
The Clarissa Quad features a moulded footbed which provides a moderate level of support suitable for casual wear.
What does 'Quad' refer to in the product name?
'Quad' refers to the chunky platform sole characteristic of this Dr. Martens range.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the pin-buckle fastening to your comfort level. Ensure it's secure but not cutting off circulation.
Slight discomfort during initial wear.
This is common with new Dr. Martens. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider wearing with socks during the break-in period.
Faux leather scuffing or marking.
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, a specialized faux leather cleaner might be used cautiously. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Ensure all parts of the sandal, especially the sole and footbed, are clean and dry. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help, or it may resolve with wear.
