The iconic 1460 boot silhouette by Dr. Martens receives its name when it was originally born on January 4th, 1960 and its new Pascal Iridescent Crackle iteration retains the same traditional shape. The boots are ready for many occasions, including partying purposes with its hard-to-miss glistening finish.
The construction of the boots gives the design a worn-in look using the brand's leather named 'Iridescent Crackle.' This is a soft suede that meets a sparking visual when it encounters light. The metallic colorways of the boots include the options of gunmetal, gold, and black. Additional elements of the boots include the 8-eye lacing system and the rugged air-cushioned sole before branded with the iconic yellow stitching and AirWair heel loop.
