Size and fit
- Dr. Martens makes whole sizes only. If you are usually a half size, the brand recommends sizing down – a larger size makes the boot longer, not wider.
- The leather stretches in width over time, but not in length. The Daphny has a slim last, so if you have wide feet, check the fit around the toes.
- When choosing a size you can switch the size chart from EU to US or centimetres.
Care
Wipe off dirt with a damp cloth, then condition the leather with Wonder Balsam.
Frequently asked questions
Do Daphny 8 Eye boots need breaking in?
Natural leather needs a few days of wear to shape to your foot. Wear them for shorter periods at first and the leather will gradually adapt in width.
What size Daphny should I choose?
The same as in other leather shoes. Dr. Martens does not make half sizes – if you are in between, the brand recommends the smaller size, and an insole can take up any extra room.
How is the Daphny different from the 1460?
It also has 8 eyelets and yellow stitching, but it is built on a slim last with a thin sole, so it looks lighter and more refined.
Is it real leather?
Yes. The upper is made of natural leather.
