FAQs
How do I properly break in my Dr. Martens 8065 Mary Jane shoes?
Start by wearing them for short durations around the house, gradually increasing the time. Wearing thick socks can provide extra comfort during this period. The leather will soften and mold to your feet over time.
What is unique about Crazy Horse leather?
Crazy Horse leather is a full-grain leather that has been treated with waxes and oils. This treatment gives it a "distressed" look that develops a rich, unique patina and character with wear and scuffing, making each pair one-of-a-kind.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the Crazy Horse leather offers a degree of natural water resistance, the Dr. Martens 8065 Mary Janes are not fully waterproof. For enhanced protection against moisture, consider applying a suitable leather protector spray.
How do I clean Crazy Horse leather?
Gently wipe dirt and dust with a damp cloth. For conditioning and maintaining the distressed look, use a specialized leather conditioner or balm designed for Crazy Horse or distressed leathers. Avoid harsh cleaners.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
Dr. Martens sizing can vary slightly. Most users find Dr. Martens generally run true to size, but if you are between sizes, consider trying them on or consulting a Dr. Martens specific size guide if available.
Can I replace the buckles or straps?
While the shoes are built to last, in the event of damage, it may be possible to have a skilled cobbler repair or replace buckles and straps. It is best to consult with a professional footwear repair specialist.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
This is common with new leather footwear. Wear them for short periods at first, gradually increasing wear time. Thick socks can help during the break-in period.
Crazy Horse leather appears dry or scuffed excessively.
Apply a quality leather conditioner or balm specifically designed for distressed leathers. This will re-moisturize the leather and help minimize the appearance of scuffs.
Buckles seem difficult to adjust or fasten.
Ensure the leather straps are flexible. If stiff, work them gently. Check that the buckle pin aligns correctly with the holes. A small amount of leather conditioner on the straps can also help.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Sometimes new soles can squeak. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole if removable, or to the seams around the sole.
