In this video, I go through how I clean, maintain and polish/shine my Dr Martens boots and shoes! The boots that I use in this video are the 1460 Pascal Vintage Boots.
I have 2 different processes when taking care of my Doc. My standard process involves cleaning my Dr Martens with a brush, toothbrush and towel every week, and applying Dr Martens own Wonder Wonder Balsam once a month.
The Wonder Balsam is great because it softens the leather, as well as gives it a level of water resistance.
The second process I do is my polishing process. This is when I want to give my Docs a more vibrant level of black, and a nice shine as well. The black polish that I use is trusty old Kiwi. It's what my dad has always used, and it works for me as well.

I’m sorry about all these dumb negative comments. I think the video was a great length and I don’t care how you pronounce the name- I’m not even sure why that matters to all these people. I appreciated how organized and thorough you were. I feel like I really understand the process now, and am excited to take better care or my boots! Thank you for sharing this

@julioandina9637 Год назад

do you need to watch a video to realize that? never ever did you thought/seen/imagine that maybe just maybe giving a bit or horse grease, oil mink or any kind of polish would be a little help for the leather of your boots/shoes? maybe even if not damage them it could get got the could get exactly the opposite of first ?, well I guess you didnt care much on your shoes, if not i ts at least really really curious. You have now open a lot of opportunitys and nice solutions , welcome to the real/obvious world. you will get surprised on many many things...been wearing Docs for years?? just 2 years as much, nobody in the whole world would need a video to realize that cleaning and polishing any different material things they could get better and renewed...never is too late

I got my first pair of Docs for my 14th birthday. It's been nearly 7 years since then, and in that time, I haven't done anything to maintain them. The leather looks worm, and the laces are falling apart, but I just ordered some polish and laces, and I'm really looking forward to giving my docs some new life! I'll have to wait a few days for it all to come in, but I'll be revisiting this video when they do, thanks so much for this tutorial!

@noctisora1509 Год назад

so how did it turn out?

@natashahartman4942 4 года назад

I recomand using clear Polish instead of black polish, because the black polish wil stain the yellow stitches.

@Ari.Grandmari 2 года назад

Clear polish generally dries out the leather though

@TheMilkholic Год назад

Clear polish can also leave black shoes bit grayish

@MullyShaves 11 месяцев назад

@@Ari.GrandmariAny cheap polish will do that. It has nothing to do with if there is color or not.

@mjspice100 2 года назад

I use neutral coloured dubbin. 1. Remove laces, wipe the boot down with a damp cloth to remove dirt, allow to dry. 2. Use a dry soft cloth to apply the dubbin, a nice even coat, not heavy, work into the stitching, include the tongue of the boot. 3. Allow to dry, overnight even. 4. Take a soft cloth and buff up. 5. Job done. The dubbin “feeds” the leather and will help to protect it. Being neutral then the yellow stitching keeps its colour.

@michaelnedsmar9106 3 года назад

I used to Love the brand Dr Martins they were as iconic as red telephone boxs in the UK but since 99% are now made in China or Vietnam they are not the same Quality , the Soles wear alot faster and are made without a wooden Shank , No shank means no structure . Solovairs are almost identical to Docs apart from having white stitching and a sole that doesn't wear as much as Docs and a wooden shank to support your foot.

@Dmaelstrom 3 года назад

True, but it’s not because they are made in China and Vietnam, it's because DMs have lowered their quality overall.

Are Pascals for female? I bought a pair and found the toe area to be quite tight (narrow) and so I'm feeling bummed. Did you buy Pascals because you prefer the narrower look? Please kindly advice. Thanks.

@hroizenck5939 2 года назад

all dr martens shoe styles have a slightly different sizing, so the pascals, as i've found, are more narrow than the other 1460s boots, and are recommended for people with narrower feet, i would recommend going to a docs store and trying on lots of different styles to get a feel of the sizing (e.g. smooth, nappa, jadon) and talk to a worker who knows their stuff!

Saphir is expensive. Don’t use it on the cheap docs, use them on the MIE docs. And even then it’s excessive. It’s a great product no doubt, but probably not targeted to this type of shoe. That being said you should avoid Kiwi and get some other polish.
