Black Dr. Martens 1460 For Pride Rainbow Rub Off boots – Docs with a hidden rainbow and a DMS sole
This 1460 from the For Pride collection was inspired by the rainbow flag. Rainbow Rub Off leather has two layers: a dark top layer and a multicoloured one underneath, which shows through at flex points and scuffs as you wear the boots. That is why no two pairs age the same way, and the rainbow appears gradually. They go with jeans, cargo trousers and a short skirt.

Size and fit
- Dr. Martens makes whole sizes only. If you are usually a half size, the brand recommends sizing down – a larger size makes the boot longer, not wider.
- The leather stretches in width over time, not in length, and the top layer starts to wear through where the boot flexes.
- When choosing a size you can switch the size chart from EU to US or centimetres.
Care
Wipe the boots with a damp cloth and apply neutral polish if needed. Do not use leather cleaning products.
Frequently asked questions
How does Rainbow Rub Off leather on the 1460 For Pride work?
The top layer of the leather wears away at flex points and scuffs, revealing rainbow colours underneath. The effect builds up gradually and looks different on every pair.
Can you see the rainbow straight away?
Not fully. The colours appear gradually the longer you wear the boots – first where the leather flexes and rubs the most.
Is it real leather?
Yes. The upper is coated leather and the lining is leather and textile.
What size 1460 For Pride should I choose?
Usually the same as in other leather shoes. Dr. Martens does not make half sizes – if you are in between, the brand recommends the smaller size, and an insole can take up any extra room.
