Dr Martens celebrates iconic boot anniversary
Dr Martens has introduced a limited edition 1460 MIE Pascal Love Letter boot to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the 1460 silhouette. With a production run of only 1,460 pairs, the boot is positioned as a collectible item.

Manufactured at Dr Martens' original factory in Wollaston, Northamptonshire, the boot is constructed from full-grain calf leather sourced from Leeds based tannery CF Stead. 

The boot's burgundy finish is achieved through a combination of natural waxes and oils, which contribute to both its colour and texture. Full-grain calf leather is selected for its durability and its ability to develop a unique patina over time. Design features include contrast stitching, antique gold eyelets, tonal laces, and debossed detailing, all reflecting elements of the original 1460 model.
