Cherry red Dr. Martens 1460 Crazy Horse boots – Cherry Red, antique gold eyelets, pull-up effect
The 1460 was the first Dr. Martens boot, named after its launch date, 1 April 1960. Thick Crazy Horse leather shows a two-tone pull-up effect: where the boot flexes and rubs, the deep Cherry Red lightens slightly. This means every pair looks a little different over time. Antique gold eyelets and laces in the colour of the upper go well with dark denim and a brown leather jacket.

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.
- Thick Crazy Horse leather shapes to your foot over time and stretches in width, not in length.
- When choosing a size you can switch the size chart from EU to US or centimetres.
Care
Remove dust and mud with a damp cloth and, once dry, nourish the leather with Wonder Balsam.
Frequently asked questions
What is the pull-up effect on Crazy Horse Docs?
Where the leather flexes and rubs, the deep cherry red lightens slightly. The boots gain character over time, and every pair looks a little different.
Do 1460 Crazy Horse boots need breaking in?
Give them a few days. Thick Crazy Horse leather shapes to your foot over time.
What size 1460 Crazy Horse 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.

Dark denim and a brown leather jacket. The antique gold eyelets and matching laces go well with them.
