FAQs
What type of leather are these sandals made from?
The Wrenlie sandals are made from Grizzly leather, a heavyweight, subtly grained hide that is designed to soften and develop character with wear.
Are these sandals suitable for wet weather?
These are open-toe leather sandals and are best suited for dry conditions. They are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the leather.
How do I clean the floral embossing?
Clean the embossed areas gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the pattern. Follow up with a leather conditioner to maintain the leather's suppleness.
What is the heel height of the platform sole?
The product description indicates a 'Quad Shore sole' for a bold presence. Specific heel height measurements are not provided, but it is a significant platform.
Can the ankle strap be adjusted?
Yes, the sandals feature an adjustable strap with an antique gold branded buckle closure, allowing for a customized fit.
What is the significance of the yellow welt stitching?
The yellow welt stitching is a signature Dr. Martens detail, signifying durable construction and a classic design element of the brand.
Do these sandals come in other colors or patterns?
This specific model is described as 'Floral' in brown. While Dr. Martens offers various styles, this guide focuses on the brown floral Wrenlie Fisherman Platform Sandal.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels stiff or uncomfortable
Wear the sandals for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.
Buckle is difficult to fasten or unfasten
Ensure the buckle prongs are aligned correctly with the buckle holes. If stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the buckle mechanism.
Leather scuffs or scratches easily
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a leather conditioner or a cream polish matching the leather color. Regular conditioning helps prevent minor damage.
Platform sole feels heavy
The Quad Shore sole is designed for durability and presence. Allow time to adapt to the weight and stability of the platform. Ensure the fit is secure to provide adequate support.

Care:
- Cleaning Leather: Wipe the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Conditioning: Use a wonder balsam or shoe conditioner specifically for leather to keep the material supple and prevent cracking, especially after cleaning or exposure to dry conditions.
