FAQs

What type of leather are these shoes made from?

These shoes are crafted from Dr. Martens' Old Harness leather, which is a supple, heavyweight leather with a dark waxed finish.

How should I break in my new Rejena Mary Janes?

Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. Wearing them with socks can help protect your feet and aid the break-in process. Gentle flexing of the leather can also help.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The squared bump toe offers a slightly different fit than a traditional round toe. While the leather will stretch, individuals with very wide feet may find them snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

What is the sole made of?

The shoes are set on a black Bex sole, which is known for its extra height, durability, and comfort.

How do I clean and care for the Old Harness leather?

Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. Use a specialized leather cleaner for tougher dirt and a leather conditioner periodically to maintain the leather's suppleness. A black wax-based product can help maintain the finish.

Do these shoes have the traditional yellow welt stitch?

No, these Rejena Mary Jane shoes feature a matching black welt stitch for a more subtle and contemporary aesthetic, deviating from the classic yellow stitch.

What occasions are these shoes best suited for?

They are versatile and can be worn for casual outings, smart-casual office environments, and even dressed up for evening events.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable during the first few wears

This is typical for new, heavyweight leather. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase or applying a leather softener.

Buckle is difficult to fasten or unfasten

Ensure the buckle prongs are aligned correctly with the holes. If the leather strap is very stiff, gently flexing it can help. Avoid forcing the buckle.

Leather shows minor scuffs or scratches

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a black shoe polish or wax designed for leather to help conceal them and maintain the finish.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur between the leather and the sole. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or silicone spray at the points where the squeaking originates, often where the upper meets the sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes come ready to wear, but a break-in period is recommended to achieve optimal comfort. Ensure the buckle is fastened securely but not too tightly. The Rejena Mary Jane is compatible with most casual and smart-casual attire.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and debris with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner.
  2. Conditioning: Apply a suitable leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying out. Use a wax-based product specifically for dark leathers to maintain the waxed finish.
  3. Protection: Consider using a waterproof spray designed for leather to protect against the elements, especially if worn in wet conditions.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
