FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather uppers offer some water resistance, these boots are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles to protect the leather and glitter finish. A water-repellent spray designed for leather can add an extra layer of protection.

What is the recommended age group for these boots?

These Dr. Martens 1460 Glitter Boots are specifically available in junior sizes, making them suitable for children and younger teens.

How do I clean the glitter section without damaging it?

For the glitter, use a very soft, dry brush or a lightly damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid scrubbing or using harsh chemicals, as this can cause the glitter to detach or lose its shine. Always let them air dry naturally.

Do I need to 'break in' these boots?

Yes, like most Dr. Martens leather boots, these may require a break-in period. The 100% leather uppers will soften and conform to the wearer's feet over time. Wearing thick socks and gradually increasing wear time can help.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made from 100% durable PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), known for its resilience and classic Dr. Martens cushioning.

Can I use standard leather polish on these boots?

For the black patent leather, use a patent leather-specific cleaner and conditioner. Avoid standard leather polishes on patent leather and absolutely do not apply them to the glitter sections, as they can dull the finish or cause damage.

What is the boot height?

The boot height is approximately 12cm for a junior size 31, with a flat heel of 2.5cm/1 inch.

Troubleshooting

Glitter appears to be dulling or flaking off.

Gently clean the glitter area with a soft, dry brush. Avoid harsh cleaning agents or excessive rubbing. For long-term protection, consider a specialized glitter sealant, though this may alter the original texture. Ensure boots are stored correctly to prevent surface friction.

Boots are difficult to put on or take off.

Ensure the inner ankle zipper is fully opened. Check that the laces are sufficiently loosened. Over time, the leather will soften, making them easier to wear. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant.

Boots feel stiff and uncomfortable.

Dr. Martens leather can be stiff initially. Wear them for short periods at first, gradually increasing wear time. Thick socks can help. Over time, the 100% leather uppers will soften and mold to the foot.

Scuff marks on the black patent leather.

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft, clean cloth or a patent leather cleaner. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional shoe repair specialist or consider using a patent leather repair kit, if appropriate.

Inner ankle zipper is sticking.

Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like silicone spray or a graphite pencil lead) to the teeth and gently work the zipper back and forth until it moves smoothly.

Care

Proper care will ensure your Dr. Martens 1460 Glitter Boots maintain their appearance and last for years.

  • Cleaning the Uppers: For the black patent leather, wipe clean with a damp cloth. For the silver nebula glitter areas, use a soft, dry brush or a very lightly damp cloth to gently remove dirt. Avoid harsh scrubbing on the glitter to prevent removal.
  • Conditioning (Patent Leather): Use a patent leather cleaner or conditioner specifically designed for patent finishes to maintain shine and prevent cracking. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth.
  • Protecting Glitter: While durable, excessive friction or harsh chemicals can damage the glitter. Avoid scuffing the glitter areas against rough surfaces.
  • Sole Care: Wipe the PVC sole clean with a damp cloth to remove mud or dirt.
  • Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees or stuffing with paper to help maintain their shape.
