FAQs

How do I clean my Dr. Martens 1460 Bex boots?

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a leather cleaner or saddle soap for tougher stains. Allow the boots to air dry naturally.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of 100% PVC.

How do I break in my new Dr. Martens?

Wear the boots for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. Use thick socks, and consider applying leather conditioners.

Are these boots waterproof?

While the boots offer some water resistance, they are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to water should be avoided.

What kind of socks should I wear?

Thick socks are recommended during the break-in period to protect your feet. For regular wear, choose socks that are comfortable and provide adequate support.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather every few months, or more frequently if the boots are exposed to harsh conditions.

Can I use any leather conditioner?

Use a leather conditioner specifically designed for smooth leather. Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam is a good option.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff and uncomfortable.

Wear the boots for short periods, gradually increasing the wear time. Use leather conditioners to soften the leather.

Leather gets scuffed or scratched.

Use a leather polish or a leather repair product to minimize the appearance of scratches. Consider applying leather protectors.

Stitching comes undone.

Take the boots to a cobbler for repair. Do not attempt to repair stitching yourself unless you have experience.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Sizing: Ensure a proper fit by consulting the Dr. Martens size guide, and consider trying on a pair before purchasing, if possible.

  3. Cleaning: Wipe down the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  4. Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner to keep the leather moisturized and prevent cracking. Apply the conditioner as directed on the product.
