Low-top leather shoes at RunColors

A low-top shoe is the most versatile type of lace-up shoe: low-cut, covering the entire foot, with no upper extending above the ankle. In our range, this category is dominated primarily by Dr. Martens with the 1461 model – a three-eyelet boot that was launched in 1961 and has remained virtually unchanged ever since. These are all-year-round boots that look just as good with pressed trousers as they do with jeans.

Dr. Martens 1461 – a classic with three eyelets

The 1461 brings the familiar Dr. Martens look to a low-top shape with three eyelets. Compare Smooth leather, monochrome finishes and platform versions, checking the stitching, sole and construction on each specific product.

Breaking in and care

Some new Dr. Martens leather shoes can feel firm initially. Build up wear gradually and choose a care product compatible with the particular leather. Check the individual model’s construction and care instructions rather than assuming every version softens or can be repaired in the same way.

Size

Check the size guide and fit information for the exact Dr. Martens model. Foot width, upper material and construction can all affect the choice between sizes. Don’t rely on a blanket rule to size up or down across the brand.
