FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing, though the structure of the leather may feel snug initially.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the sole is air-cushioned for comfort, the insoles are generally fixed, but they can be augmented with aftermarket orthotics if necessary.
How do I maintain the red color?
Use a neutral or red-tinted shoe polish occasionally to revive the color vibrancy and protect the finish.
Are these waterproof?
They are made of leather and are water-resistant to an extent, but they should not be submerged in water or used for heavy-duty rain protection.
What is the weight of these shoes?
Like most Dr. Martens, they have a substantial feel due to the durable sole unit, providing stability and impact resistance.
Troubleshooting
The leather feels too stiff upon first wear
Apply a leather balm to soften the fibers and wear the shoes for short periods with thick socks.
Buckles feel loose or insecure
Ensure the straps are fastened to the tightest hole that still allows for comfort; the leather will eventually stretch slightly to fit your foot shape.
Scuff marks appearing on the leather
This is a natural characteristic of the distressed leather. You can buff out marks with a clean, dry cloth or leave them to enhance the vintage aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 8065 Mary Janes last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear them for short durations around the house with thick socks before taking them on long walks to soften the leather.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. Allow the leather to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the material and prevent cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible to maintain the shape of the upper.
- Compatibility: These shoes pair well with denim, skirts, or tailored trousers, making them highly versatile for various wardrobes.
