60 years of the 1461. This year we mark six decades of our Original 3-eye shoe with a series of one-off reworks. Handcrafted in our original Wollaston factory, this commemorative edition is loaded with DM’s DNA: grooved sides, yellow welt stitching and a stacked-up Bex sole. The shoes are built from Quilon, a vintage-inspired premium leather used to recreate Original Docs designs, and have a standout toe cap overlay in the same material.
- Second off the DM’s production line, the 1461 is a 3-eye shoe championed for its versatility
- Made in England at our original Wollaston factory
- Quilon leather is crafted using a traditional method and features contrast base color for a two-tone finish. Clean with a damp cloth and care with Dr. Martens Shoe Polish

- Platform height: 1 in; Heel height: 1 3/8 in

Care Instructions
Wipe away dirt using a damp cloth. Apply a neutral or correct colored wax based shoe polish. Buff with a Dr. Martens Shoe Brush to restore shine as desired. We do not recommend the use of leather cleaners as they could damage the two-tone effect.
