Dr. Martens 1460 Ambassador Boots - Black - Size: 9

Ambassador is a heavyweight and oily leather that has been tumbled for added character. It's known for its softness and supple feel, making the boots easier to break in compared to traditional Dr. Martens leathers.

The Ambassador leather is designed to be softer, which eases the break-in process. Consistent wear for short periods initially will help the boots mold to your feet. Applying Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam can also help condition the leather and enhance flexibility.

Clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For ongoing care and to maintain the leather's quality, use Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam. Apply it with a cloth to nourish the leather and preserve its unique finish.
