Dr. Martens 1460 Pascal Boots - Soft Leather - Black - Size: 6

Ambassador is a heavyweight and oily leather that's been tumbled for added character. This process makes it exceptionally soft and supple from the first wear, contributing to an easier and quicker break-in period compared to traditional Dr. Martens leathers.

Clean any dirt with a damp cloth. Then, apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam using a sponge to nourish the leather and maintain its softness and appearance. This also helps provide a protective layer.

The Ambassador leather is oily and provides some natural water resistance, and the Goodyear-welted construction adds durability. However, the boots are not entirely waterproof. For enhanced protection in wet conditions, consistent application of Wonder Balsam is recommended.

Goodyear-welted construction is a traditional method where the upper and sole are heat-sealed and then stitched together. This makes the boots exceptionally durable, hard-wearing, and allows for resoling if needed.

These boots feature a flat heel with a height of 2.5cm.
