A heavyweight leather that looks beaten up and worn-in from the first step — and only gets better with age. We've rebuilt our sleek 6-eye 101 boot with Crazy Horse leather, detailed with brass eyelets and brown laces. Welted on our rugged air-cushioned sole and marked with signature yellow welt stitching. Finished with a scripted Air Wair heel loop. Made for workers. Subverted by rebels. The 101 boot packs all our unmistakable DNA into a sleek 6-eye silhouette. Crazy Horse is a heavyweight leather with a tough, textured appearance — designed to look worn in from the first step. A pillar of DM's construction. Our Original and most recognisable sole. A height of 1.25" / 3.17CM — marked by traditional DMS tread pattern that's unique to Dr. Martens. One of our most flexible soles, well known for its comfort and stability. Our Goodyear-welted lines are heat-sealed at 700˚C and reinforced with our signature welt stitch. Upper: 100% Leather, Inner: 60% Leather / 40% Textile, Sole: 100% PVC.
