The iconic Dr. Martens 1490 Women's Boot takes the legendary DNA of the classic 1460 silhouette and pushes it further with a taller 10-eye construction and unmistakable rebellious attitude. First adopted by skinheads before becoming a staple of punk, Mod Revival and alternative subcultures, the 1490 has earned its place as one of the definitive British boot designs. Built from Dr. Martens’ signature Smooth leather, the sleek black upper combines durability with a subtle sheen that only improves with age and wear.
Constructed using traditional Goodyear welted techniques, the 1490 sits atop the instantly recognisable AirWair sole with signature yellow welt stitching and grooved edges. Tough, comfortable and endlessly versatile, it’s a boot that transitions effortlessly from everyday wear to statement styling, pairing just as naturally with denim and knitwear as it does sharper subcultural looks.
