DR. MARTENS Vintage 1460 Boots – Black Quilon: Classic 8-eye vintage ankle boot. This unisex 1460 boot is made with all the classic Doc’s DNA, including grooved sides, heel-loop and yellow stitching. Built to last, it’s made using one of the finest methods of construction: the Goodyear Welt — which means the upper and sole are sewn together in our heat-sealed z-welt stitch. The boot sits on our iconic AirWair™ sole, which is oil and fat resistant, with good abrasion and slip resistance.
The Made in England Vintage collection is handcrafted by the Northamptonshire factory cobblers using original construction techniques — plus Quilon, the rare, original specification Dr. Martens leather. Thick and corrected-grain with a matte finish, this leather only gets better with age.
This is a Goodyear-welted product meaning the upper and sole are sewn together not merely glued together like many footwear construction. The Dr. Martens air-cushioned sole is oil and fat-resistant, offers good abrasion and slip resistance and small visible indentations left on the welt by the original stitching machine making these shoes unique to Dr. Martens
