FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they are designed with a wider, ergonomic fit. If you are between sizes, consider your usual Dr. Martens sizing.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, the Aurix mule works well with thin or decorative socks, which can also help during the initial break-in phase.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe away dirt. The sole is highly durable and easy to maintain.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather is durable, but it is not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to protect the metallic finish.
What is the benefit of the squared-toe design?
The squared-toe allows for more natural toe splay, increasing overall comfort compared to traditional pointed-toe shoes.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels tight across the instep
The elasticated tongue is designed to stretch; try wearing them with medium-thickness socks indoors for a few hours to help the elastic settle.
Scuffs appearing on the metallic finish
Gently buff the area with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid aggressive polishing as it may strip the metallic pigment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Being a mule, no complex sizing adjustments are needed. Simply slide your foot in, allowing the elasticated tongue to expand and secure the fit over your instep.
Compatibility: These unisex shoes pair well with denim, wide-leg trousers, or casual skirts, leaning into the Y2K aesthetic.
Care: To maintain the metallic leather finish, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes. If the leather dries out, use a neutral leather conditioner sparingly, avoiding the metallic coating where possible to preserve the shine.
