Our elevated Bex sole brings added height and attitude — a little extra edge you can wear every day. Otherwise, these are the exact same 1460 boots we’ve been making for six decades: crafted from tough Smooth leather, with 8 eyelets, yellow welt stitching and a scripted AirWair heel loop.
- Born on 01.04.60. Named the 1460. Over six decades, our 8-eye work boot has become iconic
- Hardwearing and famously tough, our Smooth leather can be polished to shine or scuffed-up
- Our Goodyear-welted lines are heat-sealed at 700°C and reinforced with our signature welt stitch
- Platform height: 1 in; Heel height: 1 3/8 in
Material
Durable and famously stiff to start, our Smooth Leather can be polished to a dapper shine or artfully scuffed-up depending on your preference.
Care Instructions
Wipe away dirt using a damp cloth. Apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to the outside of your footwear to keep the leather supple, strong and smooth. Once dry, buff vigorously to desired shine using a clean Dr. Martens Shoe Brush. Repeat regularly to prolong the life of your footwear.

I usually wear between 8.5 and 9 and ordered the 9. The boots are very comfortable (the soles and ankles are perfect).

Love these I did get a size 5 (my normal size) but had to send them back and order a size 6. Small fitting and narrow boots i would recommend going up a size if you have braod feet. The size 6 is very comfy easy to wear in, feels like I’ve got nothing on my feet when I wear them. I definitely recommend these boots lovely and warm smart.

These shoes fit perfectly! Bought my usual 5 1/2 elsewhere, but was way too big. Thank goodness you had them in a 5, which even fits with thicker socks. I love them–classic.
