FAQs
What is Repello Calf Suede?
Repello Calf Suede is a premium, fine-grade suede material from C. F. Stead tannery, treated with a Scotch Guard finish for enhanced protection against water and stains from the very first wear.
How do I maintain the green suede color?
Use a Dr. Martens Suede Brush regularly to remove dirt and maintain the suede's texture. For protection, a suede waterproofing spray can be applied. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can fade colors.
Is the sole waterproof?
The PVC sole is water-resistant and can be wiped clean. However, the primary water protection comes from the treated suede upper.
What is the difference between the 2046 and other Dr. Martens models?
The 2046 is an archive reissue, featuring a more tapered last for a refined silhouette compared to some of Dr. Martens' chunkier or more rounded styles. It maintains the classic Goodyear welt construction and air-cushioned sole.
Can these shoes be resoled?
Yes, due to the Goodyear-welted construction, these shoes can be resoled by a qualified cobbler, significantly extending their lifespan.
What size should I get if I'm usually a UK 6.5?
This guide refers to the UK 6.5 size. It is recommended to consult Dr. Martens' official sizing chart or try them on if possible, as fit can vary between individuals.
Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?
The Repello Calf Suede offers enhanced water and stain resistance, making them suitable for light rain and damp conditions. For heavy downpours, other footwear options might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty.
Use a Dr. Martens Suede Brush to gently brush the suede in one direction to lift the nap. For stubborn dirt, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Wearing thicker socks can also help stretch the leather gently. Consider using a leather conditioner designed for suede.
Water stains or marks on the suede.
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and restore the texture. For persistent marks, consult a specialist shoe cleaner.
Yellow welt stitch appears dirty.
The yellow welt stitch is a design feature. It can be gently cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents.
