FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

While the leather is naturally water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protector spray to enhance water resistance.

How do I know my size?

These boots follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual size, keeping in mind the break-in period.

Are these suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, once properly broken in, the 101 model is designed for all-day comfort and support.

Can I use inserts or orthotics?

Yes, the boots have enough internal space to accommodate most standard aftermarket insoles or orthotics.

How often should I polish the leather?

Polishing every few months, or whenever the leather starts to look dull or dry, will help maintain the deep black finish.

Is the unisex fit true to size?

The unisex fit is designed to accommodate a wide variety of foot shapes, offering a standard fit across both men's and women's sizing scales.

Troubleshooting

Stiffness during first wear

Wear thick socks and gradually increase wear time to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot.

Scuffs on leather surface

Use a high-quality leather cream or black shoe polish to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the finish.

Boots feel slippery on smooth surfaces

New outsoles can be smooth; wear them on rougher surfaces like concrete to naturally scuff the tread for better traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable construction for long-term use
  • Versatile black colorway fits many wardrobe styles
  • Reliable fit consistent with Dr. Martens standards
  • Classic, iconic design that never goes out of style

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period for maximum comfort
  • Leather material requires specific maintenance
  • Limited to black colorway options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When you first receive your boots, ensure you are wearing the socks you intend to use most often to check the fit. To maintain the appearance and life of the leather, keep them away from excessive heat sources. Use a damp cloth to wipe away mud and surface dirt after each use. We recommend using a leather conditioner or appropriate polish every few months to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Always air-dry them naturally if they happen to get soaked.
