WORN 2 TIMES LIKE NEW NON-Smoking home!! The Made in England Vintage collection is handcrafted by our Wollaston factory cobblers using original construction techniques — plus Quilon, our rare, original specification Dr. Martens leather. Thick and corrected-grain with a matte finish, this leather only gets better with age. 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. Our Made in England footwear may come with either a gold or yellow scripted heel loop.
