FAQs

How do I clean the sandals?

Wipe the sandals with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner.

What kind of leather is used?

The sandals are made of Nappa Lux leather, which is soft and smooth to the touch.

How do I break in the sandals?

Wear the sandals for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your feet. Gradually increase the wear time.

How do I care for the footbed?

Allow the antimicrobial cork footbed to air out after each wear to prevent odor and moisture buildup.

Can I wear these in the rain?

While the sandals can withstand some moisture, prolonged exposure to rain may affect the leather. Apply a leather protectant for added water resistance.

What is the height of the platform?

The Quad Neoteric platform sole has a height of 1.9"/4.82cm.

Are the sandals true to size?

Dr. Martens typically run true to size, but it's always best to consult the size chart and read reviews for specific sizing advice.

Troubleshooting

Sandals feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short periods at first, gradually increasing the wear time.

Leather shows signs of wear or damage.

Apply a leather cleaner and protectant regularly to maintain the leather's quality. Address any scratches or scuffs promptly.

Soles feel slippery.

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. Consider using a sole grip product for enhanced traction on wet surfaces.
