FAQs

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

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.

How often should I condition the leather?

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

Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the wear time. Use leather stretchers, thick socks, or apply leather softening products to help speed up the process.
