FAQs
How do I break in my Dr. Martens?
Wear them for short periods at first, gradually increasing the time. Use thick socks or leather stretching products to help soften the leather.
What kind of socks should I wear?
Initially, wear thicker socks to help protect your feet during the break-in period. Once broken in, you can wear them with any type of socks.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The shoes are water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
How do I clean the white stitching?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the stitching. Avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent damage.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), which is oil and fat resistant.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, you can replace the laces. Standard round laces are recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable initially.
Wear thick socks during the break-in period and gradually increase wear time.
Leather shows scratches or scuffs.
Use a leather polish or cream to buff out minor imperfections.
