FAQs

Are the Aurix shoes true to size?

The Aurix series uses an ergonomic, wider squared shape. Most users find them true to their standard Dr. Martens size, but the wider toe box may feel roomier than traditional rounded-toe models.

Can I remove the insoles?

The Aurix 5i features an integrated extra-cushioned insole designed to work with the shoe's ergonomic architecture.

How should I clean the leather?

Use a damp, lint-free cloth to remove dirt, followed by a quality leather conditioner or wax polish to maintain the sheen.

Is the Aurix suitable for wet weather?

While the premium leather is durable, avoid total immersion. Use a leather water-proofer spray to add a protective barrier against moisture.

Do these shoes need a break-in period?

Yes, as with most premium leather footwear, there is a short break-in period as the leather softens and the sole flexes to your walking pattern.

What is the primary difference between Aurix and classic Dr. Martens boots?

The Aurix is a low-profile shoe focused on a 00s-inspired box-toe design and a modern, highly flexible rubber sole, whereas classic boots typically feature higher ankle coverage and heavier lug soles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight across the top of the foot

Loosen the laces significantly to allow the leather to expand and settle; leather will stretch and mold to your foot over time.

Visible scuff marks on the rubber toe guard

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out marks on the rubberized sole sections.

Heel slippage while walking

Ensure the laces are secured snugly at the ankle, or consider a heel grip insert if you are between sizes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Aurix shoes maintain their quality and appearance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: New leather shoes may feel stiff initially. Wear them for short periods indoors first to allow the leather to soften and contour to your foot shape.
  2. Sizing: These shoes feature a wider, square shape; ensure you utilize the correct UK size to prevent the heel from slipping.
  3. Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a damp cloth. For the premium leather upper, use a neutral shoe cream to restore the subtle sheen and keep the leather hydrated.
  4. Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources, which can dry out and crack the leather. Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if you wish to maintain the squared-toe shape over time.
