Who it's for
For anyone who wants boots with a strong Dr. Martens character – for every day, the city and gigs.
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, but not in length. With a tall shaft, also check that the zip closes comfortably around your calf.
- When choosing a size you can switch the size chart from EU to US or centimetres.
Care
Wipe off dirt with a damp cloth, then apply wax polish in the colour of the boot and buff with a brush.
Frequently asked questions
What is the zip on the 1B99 Front Zip for?
It makes the boots quick to put on and take off. The zip runs down the front of the shaft.
How tall are 1B99 boots?
The shaft ends at mid-calf, so the boot is noticeably taller than ankle boots.
What size 1B99 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.
What do you wear 1B99 Front Zip Docs with?
A leather jacket, skinny jeans and midi dresses. You can tuck slim trousers into the shaft.
