Product Information
Full details
The Dr. Martens Aurix High Boot is designed for adults seeking a blend of archival heritage and contemporary style in a durable everyday footwear option. Crafted from water-resistant Explorer WP oily leather, these boots offer a rugged, lived-in aesthetic that improves with age, though the unique square-toe silhouette and specialized gum rubber outsole may require a short breaking-in period compared to standard round-toe designs.

FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
They are crafted from water-resistant Explorer WP leather, which handles light rain well, though they are not fully waterproof for submersion.
Does the square-toe fit differently than other Dr. Martens?
The square-toe shape provides a slightly wider feel in the toe box compared to the traditional 1460 round-toe boots.
How do I care for the oily leather finish?
Use a specialized wax or conditioner for oily leathers to preserve the waxy feel and water-resistant properties.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for your own orthotics or fresh replacements.
Are these boots unisex?
Yes, the Aurix series is designed as unisex footwear, though sizing is typically listed in UK standards.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too stiff out of the box
Wear them for short periods around the house with thick socks to help the leather soften naturally.
Side zipper feels tight or sticks
Apply a tiny amount of candle wax or silicone-based zipper lubricant to the teeth to ensure smooth operation.
Leather looks dull after heavy use
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner or wax polish specifically designed for oily or pull-up leathers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Aurix boots last for years, start by applying a leather protector before your first wear. For cleaning, wipe off dirt with a damp cloth and allow the leather to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. To maintain the 'oily' finish of the Explorer leather, use a wax-based leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out. Store your boots in a cool, dry place when not in use, and consider using shoe trees to help the boots maintain their shape and assist in moisture absorption between wears.
