Black Dr. Martens 1460 Greasy boots – matte oiled leather, 8 eyelets, AirWair sole
On the 1460 Greasy the leather comes first: a matte black that feels waxy and slightly greasy to the touch. The oily finish helps protect it, and the leather itself is light and soft. It is for those who prefer boots without shine and with a raw, workwear look. They go well with cargo trousers, heavy jackets and dark jeans.

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.
- Greasy leather is light and soft, so it shapes faster than stiff Smooth leather. Over time it stretches in width, not in length.
- When choosing a size you can switch the size chart from EU to US or centimetres.
Care
Wipe off dirt with a damp cloth and protect the leather with Dubbin wax from time to time.
Frequently asked questions
Do Dr. Martens 1460 Greasy boots need breaking in?
Less than Smooth leather versions. Greasy leather is light and soft, so it shapes to your foot faster.
What is Greasy leather?
A matte, oiled leather with a waxy, slightly greasy feel. The oily finish helps protect it, and the boots have no shine.
What size 1460 Greasy 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 matte 1460 boots with?
Cargo trousers, heavy jackets and dark jeans. The lack of shine gives them a raw, workwear look.
