FAQs
How do I break in my Dr. Martens?
Wear your shoes for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. Use leather conditioners to soften the leather.
What is Quilon leather?
Quilon leather is a durable, fine-textured leather used by Dr. Martens, known for its quality and ability to age well.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every few months, or more frequently if the shoes are exposed to harsh conditions.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
Yes, but it's best to treat them with a leather protector to prevent water damage.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
Thicker socks are recommended during the break-in period. Choose socks that wick away moisture to keep your feet dry.
What if the stitching comes undone?
If stitching comes undone, seek professional repair from a cobbler or leather repair shop.
Are these shoes true to size?
Dr. Martens sizing can vary slightly. It's best to consult the size chart and read reviews from other customers.
Troubleshooting
Leather Creasing
Use shoe trees when storing the shoes to help maintain their shape and minimize creasing.
Stiff Leather
Wear the shoes in short intervals initially. Use leather softening products if needed.
Sole Wear and Tear
Inspect the soles regularly and consider resoling the shoes if the wear is excessive.
Scratches on Leather
Gently rub the scratches with a soft cloth. Use leather polish to cover up any marks.
