FAQs
How do I clean the green suede?
Use a Dr. Martens Suede Brush to gently brush away dirt and restore the nap. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Always ensure the shoes are dry before brushing.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Repello Calf Suede is treated with a Scotch Guard finish for enhanced water and stain resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. They offer protection against light rain and splashes.
What is the difference between this model and other Dr. Martens shoes?
The 2046 features a more tapered last for a refined silhouette compared to some of the chunkier Dr. Martens styles. It retains the brand's signature Goodyear-welted construction and air-cushioned sole.
What size should I order if I'm usually a UK 9.5?
The product is listed as UK 9.5. Dr. Martens generally recommends trying them on for fit, as sizing can vary slightly between individuals. Refer to Dr. Martens' official sizing chart if unsure.
How long does the break-in period typically last?
The break-in period can vary. For many, it takes a few wears for the shoes to mold to their feet. Wearing them with thicker socks can help accelerate this process.
Can I polish suede shoes?
No, you should not use traditional shoe polish on suede. Stick to a suede brush and eraser for cleaning and maintenance to preserve the suede's texture.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% PVC, featuring Dr. Martens' signature air-cushioned tread pattern.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable
This is common with new Goodyear-welted shoes. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Using thicker socks can also help stretch the material.
Water spots or stains are visible
Allow the shoes to dry naturally. Once dry, attempt to brush the affected area. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in suede.
Yellow welt stitch is loose
Minor fraying can sometimes be trimmed carefully. For significant damage, contact Dr. Martens customer service or a cobbler specializing in Dr. Martens repair.

Care:
- Cleaning: Use a Dr. Martens Suede Brush to remove dirt and restore the nap of the suede. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be used.
- Protection: While the Repello Calf Suede has built-in protection, occasional reapplication of a suitable suede protector spray can enhance its water and stain resistance over time.
