Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Dr Martens 8065 shoes, wipe away excess dirt after every use using a damp cloth. For stubborn scuffs or to maintain the suppleness of the leather, apply a high-quality leather balm or neutral shoe polish periodically. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and the integrity of the stitching. When sizing, ensure there is a small "thumb-width" of space at the front of the shoe to allow for natural foot growth and movement. If the shoes get wet, always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
