Dr. Martens Mattison Slides Sandals - Red - Size 8

The slides are made from Soft Patent leather for the upper and feature a suede-covered foam footbed, an EVA midsole, and a PVC tread.

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean. Avoid harsh chemicals. Air dry away from heat.

Yes, the Mattison platform sole is built with a featherlight EVA midsole and a suede-covered foam footbed designed for comfort, even during extended wear.

Yes, they feature an adjustable strap that allows you to lock in your preferred comfort and secure fit.

While the PVC tread offers grip, the patent leather and suede footbed are not ideal for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions.

The tread is made of PVC and features a jagged design that climbs the sidewalls for enhanced traction and a distinctive look.

They are finished with Dr. Martens' signature grooving on the sole and classic yellow stitching.

Gently buff out minor scuffs with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly can sometimes help restore the shine, followed by polishing with a soft cloth.

Ensure feet are dry. If the issue persists, a light brushing with a suede brush can help maintain the texture. For significant slipping, consider using a very thin, breathable sock liner or consulting a shoe specialist.

Experiment with different strap positions and tensions. The hook-and-loop fastener should allow for micro-adjustments. Ensure the strap is not digging into the skin; if it is, try loosening it slightly or adjusting the angle.

Allow a break-in period for the foot to adjust to the platform. Ensure the correct size is being worn for a secure fit, which minimizes movement and perceived heaviness. Walking on varied surfaces can help acclimate to the feel.
