FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but we recommend measuring the child's foot with socks on to account for the necessary room for growth.

Can these be worn for sports?

While durable, these shoes are not intended for high-intensity sports or running, and a dedicated athletic shoe is recommended for those activities.

How long does the break-in process take?

Depending on the frequency of wear, the leather typically softens and becomes comfortable within 1 to 2 weeks of regular use.

Are the soles slip-resistant?

The iconic AirWair soles are designed for excellent grip, making them suitable for most standard floor surfaces and playgrounds.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are generally fixed, but if you require extra support, thin aftermarket orthotic inserts can often be placed on top.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

They offer protection against light moisture due to the leather construction, but they are not fully waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff upon first wear

Wear them for short periods around the house with thick socks to gently stretch and soften the leather.

Buckle strap is difficult to open

Apply a tiny amount of leather conditioner to the strap area to improve flexibility and ensure the buckle moves smoothly.

Scuff marks appearing on the leather

Use a matching black polish or a specialized leather cleaning sponge to buff out light scuffs and restore the finish.

Pros and Cons

  • Buckle closure may be difficult for younger children to fasten independently

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.
