The Dr. Martens Josef Suede Slides are designed for casual, everyday wear, particularly in warmer climates. Their slip-on nature makes them ideal for quick errands, lounging at home, or relaxed outings. The adjustable buckles ensure that whether your feet swell slightly during the day or you prefer a tighter fit, you can customize the sandal for optimal comfort and security. The suede-covered foam footbed provides a soft landing with every step, making them suitable for extended wear where comfort is paramount. Pair them with shorts, linen trousers, or casual dresses for a laid-back yet stylish look. The signature grooved sole also offers reliable grip on various surfaces, typical of Dr. Martens footwear, contributing to stability during use.

Setup 1. Unpack: Remove slides from packaging. 2. Adjust Buckles: Before first wear, place your foot in each slide and adjust the two buckles to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure they are not too tight to pinch or too loose to cause slipping. 3. Break-In (if needed): While generally comfortable from the start, a short break-in period might help the footbed conform to your foot shape. ### Compatibility - Seasonal: Best suited for spring and summer months due to their open design and suede material. - Occasion: Ideal for casual wear, beach trips, poolside, garden parties, or relaxed indoor settings. - Attire: Pairs well with shorts, jeans, casual dresses, and other laid-back outfits. ### Care - Suede Protection: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before first wear and regularly thereafter to repel water and stains. - Cleaning: 1. Allow any mud or dirt to dry completely. 2. Use a suede brush to gently brush off loose dirt, always brushing in the same direction to maintain the nap. 3. For tougher spots, use a specialized suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a clean cloth, dabbing lightly. 4. Avoid harsh scrubbing or soaking in water. - Drying: If wet, stuff the slides with paper to absorb moisture and maintain shape, then allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. - Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or paper stuffing to maintain shape. Avoid crushing the suede. - Footbed Maintenance: Regularly wipe the suede footbed with a lightly damp cloth and allow to air dry to keep it fresh.
