FAQs
Do I need to treat the leather before my first wear?
While not strictly required, applying a light coat of Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam can help protect the leather and assist in the break-in process.
How do I know if the size 5 fits correctly?
Your heel should stay securely in place while walking, and there should be a small amount of wiggle room for your toes.
Is the sole slip-resistant?
The barrel edge sole is designed for standard urban surfaces; however, it is not rated as professional-grade slip-resistant footwear.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles and replace them with orthotic or cushioned insoles if you require additional support.
Why does the colour look different after a few months?
The heavyweight textured leather is designed to develop unique colour variations as part of its aging process, which is a hallmark of this series.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff during first wear
This is normal for heavyweight leather. Use a leather conditioner to soften the fibers and wear thicker socks to protect against friction.
Yellow stitching looks dirty
Use a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush with a mild soap solution to gently clean the threads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Buzz 5i shoes, follow these care steps:
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to soften.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner suitable for the textured finish.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner or balsam periodically to maintain the suppleness of the heavyweight leather and prevent cracking.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can dry out and damage the leather.
- Sizing: Ensure you are using the correct UK size guide for Dr. Martens, as they are designed to have a slight room for comfort.
