What is Ambassador leather?

Ambassador leather is a soft, tumbled, and lightly oiled leather used in Dr. Martens boots. It is known for its comfort and durability.

How often should I condition my boots?

Can I use any leather conditioner?

It is recommended to use Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam, or a leather conditioner specifically designed for oiled leather.

How do I break in my new boots?

Wear your boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. Use thick socks to minimize blisters. Consider using a leather softener.

What is the warranty on these boots?

Dr. Martens offers a warranty against manufacturing defects. Check the Dr. Martens website for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Leather Creasing

Apply leather conditioner to soften the leather and reduce creasing. Use shoe trees to help maintain the boot's shape.

Scuffs and Scratches

Use a leather polish in a matching color to cover minor scuffs. For deeper scratches, consider professional leather repair.

Sole Wear

Regularly inspect the sole for wear and tear. Consider replacing the soles at a shoe repair shop when necessary.

Stiff Leather

Apply leather conditioner liberally. Wear the boots for short periods to help break in the leather.
