Product Information

Full details

The Dr. Martens Zebzag mule is designed for adults seeking comfortable, stylish footwear with a sustainable edge. Its key benefit lies in its hybrid sole technology, offering both lightweight cushioning and durable grip, while a potential caveat is the quilted upper's susceptibility to heavy wear and tear. These platform slides feature a unique quilted Econyl Canvas upper made from recycled materials, a convenient riptape closure, and a hybrid air-cushioned sole combining EVA and PVC for all-day comfort.

FAQs

Are these slides suitable for hiking?

No, the Dr. Martens Zebzag slides are designed for casual wear and urban environments. They are not intended for rugged outdoor activities like hiking.

What does 'Econyl Canvas' mean?

Econyl Canvas is a fabric made from recycled materials, specifically pre- and post-consumer waste like fishing nets and fabric scraps, offering a more sustainable option.

Can I machine wash these slides?

It is not recommended to machine wash these slides, as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The slides should feel snug but not tight, with your heel comfortably resting within the sole's contours. Use the riptape closure for fine adjustments.

What is the main benefit of the hybrid sole?

The hybrid sole combines the lightweight cushioning of EVA with the durability and grip of PVC, providing comfort for walking and resilience for everyday use.

Are these considered unisex?

While listed primarily for men, the design and available sizes (e.g., UK 9 is available) can be suitable for women as well, depending on personal preference and fit.

How do I clean mud or dirt from the sole?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the sole clean. For more stubborn dirt, a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.

Troubleshooting

Slides feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the riptape closure to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected.

Sole feels slippery on wet surfaces.

While the PVC provides grip, the hybrid sole may be less effective on extremely wet or smooth surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Quilted pattern appears flattened.

Avoid crushing the slides when not wearing them. Gently try to re-fluff the quilting by hand if slightly compressed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These slides require no setup out of the box; they are ready to wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the quilted Econyl Canvas with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the fabric or stitching. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap diluted in water and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: The EVA and PVC sole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a specialized sole cleaner can be used sparingly.
  3. Drying: Allow the slides to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause materials to shrink or degrade.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box to protect from dust and moisture.

Compatibility: These are designed as casual footwear for adult wear and are not intended for strenuous athletic activities.
