These Dr Martens 2976 YS boots are great for everyday wear. Put them on easily thanks to the elastic ankle gusset. When it comes to maintenance, clean the boots with a damp cloth and let them dry. Then, apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam. After it dries, use a clean Dr. Martens shoe brush to buff the boots to your desired shine. The Wonder Balsam will keep the leather in top - notch condition, making it supple, strong, and smooth. Regular use of the balsam will make your boots last longer. You can style the boots however you like - polish them for a dressy look or scuff them up for a more casual, edgy vibe.
