FAQs
What material are the Dr. Martens Eviee Tech Strap Mary Jane Heeled Shoes made from?
These shoes are crafted from durable, high-quality leather, characteristic of Dr. Martens footwear, designed for longevity and resilience.
How should I clean and care for my shoes?
To clean, wipe with a damp cloth. For conditioning and protection, regularly apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam or a suitable leather protector/cleaner. This helps keep the leather supple, prevents cracking, and maintains its appearance.
Are these shoes true to size?
Dr. Martens generally run true to size for most individuals. However, if you are typically between sizes, it is often recommended to size down due to their generous fit. The adjustable strap also allows for a customized fit.
Is there a break-in period required for these shoes?
Yes, as with many Dr. Martens leather products, an initial break-in period is common. We recommend wearing them for short periods with thick socks to help the leather mold to your feet, which can take from a few days to a couple of weeks of intermittent wear.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural water resistance, these shoes are not fully waterproof. For enhanced protection in damp or rainy conditions, we recommend applying a water-resistant spray specifically designed for leather footwear.
What is the heel height of the Eviee Tech Strap Mary Jane shoes?
The product features an 'elevated' and 'chunky heeled' design. Info needed: The exact heel height in inches or centimeters is not specified in the provided product description.
What kind of outfits pair well with these shoes?
Their versatile monochrome and alternative style makes them suitable for a wide range of outfits. They look great with casual wear like jeans and skirts, as well as providing an edgy contrast to dresses or even more tailored trousers.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff or uncomfortable during initial wear.
This is common with new leather Dr. Martens. Wear them for short periods, gradually increasing duration. Wearing thick socks can help soften the leather faster. Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam can also be applied to help condition and break in the leather.
Strap feels too loose or too tight.
The tech strap features an adjustable buckle. Unfasten the strap and re-adjust it to a hole that provides a snug, yet comfortable fit around your foot. Ensure it's not too tight to restrict circulation nor too loose to cause slippage.
Squeaking noise when walking.
Sometimes new soles or leather can produce squeaking sounds. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole if the squeak is internal. For leather-on-leather squeaks, a leather conditioner can sometimes help.
Leather appears dull or scuffed.
Clean the shoes with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Then, apply Dr. Martens Ultra Protector spray or a suitable black shoe polish/conditioner to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Buff gently with a soft brush or cloth.
