HOW TO PROTECT YOUR LEATHER 

OR SUEDE BOOTS & SHOES 

THE BOOT DOCTOR SAYS: OUR ULTRA PROTECTOR SPRAY IS PERFECT FOR BOOTS AND SHOES OF ANY AGE — FROM BOX-FRESH TO YOUR MOST WELL-LOVED PAIR.

Even the toughest of DM’s boots sometimes need a bit of extra help. Our Ultra Protector Spray creates a layer of protection against scuffs, marks and other wear and tear. Use it on leather, suede, nylon or canvas.

Please note Ultra Protector is a non-vegan product and is not suitable for use on vegan Docs.

Here’s how to apply it — in four easy steps — with a few tips from the Dr. Martens Boot Doctor. Check out our full video at the bottom of the page.




BOOT DOCTOR TIP: THE MORE OFTEN YOU LOOK AFTER YOUR DM’S, THE LONGER THEY’LL LAST.

STEP 1: YOUR SHOE CARE KIT

Find a clear spot that you don’t mind getting hit with a bit of run-off spray — and maybe some mud, depending on what you’ve been putting your boots through.


You’ll need your bottle of Ultra Protector Spray, and maybe a damp cloth or sponge. 


If you’re only working on one pair of DM’s footwear, you might not even need to sit down for this.

STEP 2: REMOVE DIRT


If you’ve been testing the limits of your boots, you might need to clean them up first. Whip out your laces to clean separately and use your damp cloth to wipe off any mud.


 If you’re using Ultra Protector on its own, now is the time to move to Step 3. 


Our shoe protector is the perfect final touch in any shoe-care routine — so if you have any other products to apply, now’s the time to get stuck in.

BOOT DOCTOR TIP: IF YOUR BOOTS HAVE LIVED A LITTLE, BANG THEM TOGETHER TO REMOVE ANY EXCESS MUD FIRST.

STEP 3: RE-LACE

Once your footwear has dried, pop your clean laces back in, or play around with a new pair. Ultra Protector will prolong the life of even the most intricately-patterned pair of laces.

第 3 步:重新綁上鞋帶

你的鞋子乾透後,把乾淨的鞋帶綁回原處,或者換上新的鞋帶。 即使是花紋設計最複雜的鞋帶,Ultra Protector 也能延長其使用壽命。 

BOOT DOCTOR TIP: LACES NEED PROTECTING TOO.

ACTION AS YOUR BOOTS.

STEP 4: GET SPRAYING

It’s time to apply the Ultra Protector. 


Hold the bottle about 30CM away from your shoes or boots and spray them with an even coating — be careful not to saturate them. Set your boots aside and let them dry while you plan your next adventure.
