FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Dr. Martens shoes typically run true to size, but it's recommended to check the size chart or try them on if possible.

How do I break in the leather?

Wear the shoes for short periods at first, gradually increasing the wear time. Use leather conditioners to soften the leather and reduce stiffness.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

The shoes are made of leather and are not fully waterproof. It's recommended to avoid prolonged exposure to rain. Consider using a leather protectant spray for added water resistance.

How do I clean the white stitching?

Use a soft brush and mild soap solution. Gently scrub the stitching and wipe clean.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Wear socks made of a breathable material, such as cotton or wool. The thickness of the socks will depend on your preference and the fit of the shoes.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information, which typically covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, you can easily replace the laces with a new pair. Ensure the length is appropriate for the eyelets.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight initially.

Allow the shoes to break in by wearing them for short periods. Use shoe stretchers if needed.

Leather is scuffed or scratched.

Use a leather polish or cream of the appropriate color to buff out the marks. For deeper scratches, consult a leather repair specialist.

Stitching coming undone.

If the stitching is fraying, try to trim it carefully. For significant damage, have the shoes professionally repaired.
