How do I clean my Dr. Martens?

Wipe the boots with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner. Always let them air dry.

Can I waterproof my Dr. Martens?

Yes, you can use a leather protector spray to add a layer of water resistance. Apply as directed on the product label.

What is the Goodyear-welt construction?
