Dr. Martens Blaire Quad - Black - UK 5

Dr. Martens generally run true to size, but if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to size down as leather can stretch slightly over time. Check the official Dr. Martens size guide for precise measurements.

While the leather is durable, it's not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat, then apply leather conditioner.

The PVC sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage the material.

The 'Quad' sole refers to the elevated platform sole, which adds significant height and a more pronounced, distinctive aesthetic compared to standard Dr. Martens soles.

Yes, like many leather Dr. Martens products, these sandals may require a short break-in period for the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape, usually taking a few wears.

The upper is crafted from high-quality durable leather. The sole is typically PVC.

The adjustable straps offer some flexibility for various foot widths. However, individuals with very wide feet might find the base of the sandal narrow, so trying them on is recommended if possible.

Adjust the buckles on each strap. Experiment with different settings until you find a fit that is secure but doesn't pinch or slide.

This is common with new leather. Wear them for short periods initially to 'break them in.' Using thick socks during this phase can help, or apply moleskin to sensitive areas of your foot.

Clean the sandals thoroughly, then apply a Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam or a high-quality leather conditioner. Massage it into the leather to moisturize and protect it.

The sole offers good grip, but extreme wet or smooth surfaces can be tricky. Ensure the sole is clean, as embedded dirt can reduce traction.
