How do I clean my Dr. Martens 1460 Vintage boots?
Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. Then, condition the leather.

Condition the leather every few weeks, or as needed, to prevent it from drying out and cracking. The frequency depends on how often you wear the boots and the climate.
