FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather is durable and water-resistant, they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather protector spray for added moisture resistance.
How do I determine my size?
The boots follow standard adult UK sizing. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the standard Dr. Martens sizing chart.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with orthotics or cushioned inserts if desired.
How long do they take to break in?
Break-in times vary by individual, but typically range from a few days to a couple of weeks of regular wear.
Are these boots suitable for winter?
The air-cushioned sole provides good traction, but they are designed for general wear. They are not specifically insulated for extreme cold.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too stiff when new
Wear them with thick socks for short periods at home to gradually stretch and soften the leather.
Difficulty putting on the boots
Use the pull tabs on the back of the collar to assist your heel in sliding into the boot until the elastic gussets soften.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your boots last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Wear: Wear the boots for short intervals initially to allow the Ambassador leather to stretch and mould to your feet comfortably.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and debris using a damp cloth after each use.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather balm or cream periodically to keep the leather hydrated and prevent cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the heat-sealed sole.
- Compatibility: These boots are true to standard adult UK sizing; however, since they are slip-ons, ensure you select your correct size to maintain a secure fit around the ankle.
