The balm/ mink oil should be a part of the shoe package. I'm even wondering how, after so many years the company hasn't done anything about that issue smh

@Marcus_Berger1701 3 года назад

I have 37 pairs of Docs. The oldest pair are from a relative and they are over 30 years old. I break them in with Mink Oil or the Dr. Martens Balsam. Mink Oil is more effective. The thing with heating them is of course a problem. But i have done it by myself often. If you nurish the leather right after heating it there should be no problem. Indirect heat is the way to go. Its really effective because the mink oil soaks in so much better. Also i wear thick socks as you do and if there is much pain i put a tape onto the sock. Sometimes multiple layers. (The Tapes which can easily be removed) Im also not afraid to heat the boot and put Balsam or Mink oil on the inside of the back of the boot. Thats also quiet effective. It's a bit messy. Your socks get oily. And you have to avoid putting the mink oil on the insole cause there is a chance the insole separates from the boot when it comes into contact with balsa and oil. I think breaking them in is part of the experience. To know that the shoe is molded to your foot is worth it suffering all the pain. The 30 ´+ years old ones just feel like they are a second skin. So much comfort. Martens nowadays probably don't last that long. But in the end Thailand Docs last long enough to justify the price. Nice video. :-)

@OliviaBrittanyGrace 3 года назад

Thank you so much for your tips, I hadn't thought of tape to protect the feet from blisters! Glad to hear the mink oil is good too, what type of indirect heat do you recommend? Yes I bet those old docs are almost like wearing slippers! Sad that they are no longer all made in England but its good to know they will still last a good amount of time 🙏 thanks again I really appreciate the tips!

I used it for 1 day to school XD took my time walking, it was that bad and anyways I’m getting another pair for my self and I like the combat boots with my military pants. will be nice to have with the Dr.Marten Combat boots.

I didn't know I had to break them in so I wore them to school. By the end of the day I was literally limping back home and ended up with terrible blisters.

To help you feel better... I have a pair of Red Wing Iron Ranger boots. They cost 350 USD. And they took me almost a year to break in. I refused to do any tricks or shortcuts because I didn't want to damage the leather. But after almost a year, they are perfectly molded to my feet and are amazing! A somewhat painful fit at the start, ends in a perfect fit later. A soft fit to start, ends in a sloppy loose fit in the end.

@meatbxndit3581 2 года назад

Silicon heel cups worn outside of the sock and in the boot will definitely help with heel pain. I can’t go anywhere without my heel cups now. They’re also known to heal cracked feet :)

Just heat the boot for 6min, apply the product Mink Oil Liquid of Fiebings, inside and out, reheat for another 6min, use for a week to help the leather get soft, use the oil for a week when necessary ( if dry). Probto! the leather of this vote is sooooo soft and malleable

@highwind1369 Год назад

I've broken in several pairs of leather work boots and leather combat boots. Folks will tell you to soak them in water, or put bags of ice in them and freeze them. Look, if you want to have your boots last a long time and have the best fit possible there's only two things to do. Wear them for longer periods of time over time, and keep them conditioned. She's right, it just takes time and patience. If you rush it, you can damage the leather or end up with a weird fit. Wear them slowly over time, and keep up on the mink oil. It's worth it in the long run.

@RebeccaSmith77 10 месяцев назад

I have a pair of the docs 1461 shoes, and I used white bar towels and rolled them up and shoved them in my shoes and let them sit overnight. I, too, used the pad method for the backs of the insides of the heels, and that WORKS. That really works for not getting blisters on the backs of your heels. What a fantastic, best idea ever. I used pantiliners, tho, as they are smaller and easier to cut in half. My only place of pain with my docs, was my right pinky toe got a little smooshed and was painful for about a day and a half, which I solved by simply applying some ointment to my pinky toe and wrapping it in a bandaid for two days. I wore them in my house, every day, and took them off mid-afternoon. Leather type really makes a big difference in ease of breaking them in, I think.

I wore them out for 5 hours the same day I bought them. I wore them with some winter long socks. I did notice by 4-5th hour one of my ankles started getting a little raw. Thought it would be worse, so I had packed other shoes just incase but didn't have to switch. Not too bad for first say out in them. I'll try the pads and cpr 🤭. Thanks!

@KarbonElement 2 года назад

I don't waste time, I put them right away and see where they are going to hurt. I put Band-Aids right away where I know any shoe will cause blisters due to bending or rubbing. I also carry additional Band-Aids of different sizes and the moment I feel any discomfort I put a Band-Aid on my foot for that spot. I will wear the shoe for a week, so those Band-Aids (cloth ones, not plastic) that I put on I am not removing them during that week. I also did this when I bought myself a new pair of Fly-London's in Spain while on a 2.5 week holiday visiting my best friend.

Thank you for this video! If you haven't already can you film a shoe collection video? I'd love to see it! My aunt bought me a pair of Newton Docs in 2017 for my bday and I wore them to school not thinking much of it other than the fact that it was super hard to tighten at first. I think I blocked out the pain I had when I first wore them. After many blisters for months they fit like a glove as long as I wear medium thick socks, otherwise the seam will give me a blister. I recently bought black patent 1460s and the seam near the footbox is so tight! I wore them around the house for a couple days but recently had a procedure done on one of my toes so I haven't been able to wear them for a month or so. I've been packing them tightly with folded up socks (I fit 5 pairs of varying thicknesses in each boot) and leaving them to sit after I applied a light coat of castor oil a couple weeks ago. After I break in my new bad boys I might look into the 1461s cause I always liked Oxford heels and thought they might be a cute edition for everyday although I heard they're infamously harder to break in as the shorter back is much stiffer. I was also looking at the Mary Jane's but idk if they're the same way 😬

@tommylee1501 2 года назад

Someone once told me that filling them with boiling water and leaving for a bit then wearing them after while wet for a bit worked. I am too scared to try it

@laurarepetti3449 Год назад

Hey thanks for this this is super helpful, I just got my first pair of docs and want to break them in with minimal trauma 😂 I just wanted to clarify one point - the initial wear (when you’re assessing where it hurts) is this done with just bare feet? Or w the doc double socks?

@SnugMuffinn Год назад

I got my first pair too on Christmas!! I would not recommend doing anything in these bare foot. Just do regular socks for the initial wear to figure out what hurts, then do thick/double socks while breaking them in normally 👍

@OliviaBrittanyGrace Год назад

Hey 👋 thank you! Oohh defo not bare feet. Just any socks doesn’t have to be doc socks. You just want to see where they hurt on your feet as everyone will be a bit different. You will get an idea where they hurt quite quickly 🤭 good luck x x x

@Ohkeh640 Год назад

Forgot to buy mine 😢 how do you recommend to apply it just on the outside? Or inside the ankle area?? Did you stay true to size or size down? How often do you apply the balsam etc

@korrinahopkins1512 Год назад

I recommend the outside! And I also stuffed my shoes with my shirts! It helped to stretch them out faster!

@korrinahopkins1512 Год назад

@Oh Keh I applied the bomb twice, especially around the seams! Also I know everyone recommends to tie your shoes uptight but I didn’t and my shoes look fine and I didn’t get any blisters. I got my regular size because in the beginning I definitely needed to wear thick socks! Now I can wear thin long socks and my Dr are so comfortable! And it only took me 2 weeks to fully break them in!

would these tips work for the 1461? I can’t find any videos on them, and this was the best one i saw.

@100cds3 2 года назад

I would've thought that using a pad would've slowed down the breaking in process and wouldn't have moulded to ur foot properly???

@OliviaBrittanyGrace 2 года назад

You would think so but no, massively helps to protect your foot and still moulds no problem. I just found without in the past it’s taken longer but that could have been because I was bleeding and so sore that I could not bear to put them back on my feet for a few weeks!

@100cds3 2 года назад

@@OliviaBrittanyGrace ohh I understand now! I'll give it a go- I was using those silicone heel things to stop my feet from getting chewed up by the boots. how long do you keep the pad in there until it's comfortable to take it out and wear them normally?

@1Himiko7Toga 2 года назад

for me I see it as making your feet go down to hell and when you come back up your feet to your self says it’s not that bad I don’t feel much pain only because your feet are use to the pain and also your boots manually break in and are not rushed. It’s like making a real katana with no bull shit in the background of the making XD or if your shoe hurts that bad then just get a bigger size lol 😂

@tamlagray29 2 года назад

I’ve bought the vegan ones they are plastic not leather And they absolutely kill my feet I’ve only worn them once Is it possible to break in the plastic ones with your tips??

@OliviaBrittanyGrace 2 года назад

Hi lovely, you will be able to try the sanitary towel, thick socks but you won't be able to apply heat or the wonder balm as they are not real leather. I'm sure a little bit of cpr on the boots may be ok but go steady you don't want to stress the boot and crack them. I'd say wearing them round the house If you can with the socks and the towels and see if they improve. Hope they break in super soon xxx

@kristijo149 2 года назад

Just from my experience with vegan leather docs…they did not break in. Using the oils etc does nothing for it, because the material is essentially plastic. All the tips I use for breaking in leather boots didn’t work at all. Padding/moleskin/bandages helped the heel and ankle blisters but after three months of trying I gave up and gave them away.

What if they hurt only on the big toe and are perfect on the rest of the feet? :(

@carolbia95 2 года назад

I bought them second hand and can't return them 😩*

@OliviaBrittanyGrace 2 года назад

Ahhh no what a shame that's so frustrating! Usually second hand are so much better because they have been broken in for you. I'm not sure what docs u have, some you can take the insole out to make more room if you are finding them a bit narrow, have you tried taping up your big toe and wearing them bit by bit? You could also cut a sanitary towel to fit where the boot Is rubbing your toe. It's such a shame because they are an amazing shoe they can just cause pain in the beginning. Wish I could help you out more! Hope they stop rubbing you real soon! Let's hope your big toe hardens to them 🙃🤦‍♀️good luck xx

@carolbia95 2 года назад

@@OliviaBrittanyGrace they were only worn once by the girl who sold them to me, so I'm trying to hold on to the hope I just need to break them in. They are the Jadon Smooth Leather. I have tried using sanitary towels but it's worse because I'm left with even less room on the top and I think I'm not supposed to take off the insole, I tried to see if it came off and it didn't. My toes are ok, I can even "play the piano" with them while standing, the only problem is my big toe touching the front, which causes discomfort when I walk. I am trying to break them in by wearing them around the house with winter socks. I hope this will do the trick eventually. Thank you so much for your help! 🥰

@savannahwhitaker7804 2 года назад

@carolbia95 2 года назад

@@savannahwhitaker7804 yes! I kept wearing winter socks and eventually, it became less painful to wear the boots because they stretched a bit and got adjusted to my feet. I just always have to make sure I wear them with thick socks (if I wear normal socks, the boots hurt my feet from rubbing, especially on the big toe). However, I must say they are NOT the most comfortable shoes I own (not even close). 😅And I guess they will unfortunately never be! 🥴
