FAQs
How do I clean my Dr. Martens 1B99 boots?
Wipe away dirt and debris with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution, followed by a leather conditioner.
What is Pisa leather?
Pisa leather is a medium-weight, milled Nappa leather with a soft, tumbled handle and a richly pigmented waxy finish.
How do I break in my new Dr. Martens boots?
Wear your boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. Use thick socks to help with the break-in process.
Can I waterproof my Dr. Martens boots?
Yes, you can use a leather-safe waterproof spray. Ensure the boots are clean and dry before application.
What is the Goodyear welt construction?
The Goodyear welt construction is a durable method of attaching the sole to the upper, making the boots long-lasting and resoleable.
How do I care for the platform sole?
Clean the platform sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially.
Wear the boots for short periods to break in the leather. Use leather softener if necessary.
Scratches or scuffs on the leather.
Use a leather polish in a matching color to cover minor scratches.
Sole separation.
Take the boots to a professional cobbler for repair. The Goodyear welt construction is designed for durability, but extreme wear can cause separation.
