Dr. Martens 1490 Bex Smooth Leather
To celebrate 60 years of Dr. Martens, we’ve taken an Original and rebuilt it on a Goodyear welted, stacked Bex sole. The 1490 Bex Black Smooth is a 10-eye boot that’s loaded with ready-for-anything attitude. The boots are crafted from tough Smooth leather and built with DM’s-branded AirWair eyelets.
- The 1490 is the archetypal Docs boot. Created to conform. And worn by those who don’t
- Our Goodyear-welted lines are heat-sealed at 700°C and reinforced with our signature welt stitch
- Platform height: 1 in; Heel height: 1 3/8 in
Material
Durable and famously stiff to start, our Smooth Leather can be polished to a dapper shine or artfully scuffed-up depending on your preference.
Care Instructions
Wipe away dirt using a damp cloth. Apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to the outside of your footwear to keep the leather supple, strong and smooth. Once dry, buff vigorously to desired shine using a clean Dr. Martens Shoe Brush. Repeat regularly to prolong the life of your footwear.
