FAQs
How do I break in my 1460 boots?
Wear them for short periods, use thick socks, and apply leather balm to soften the material until it conforms to your feet.
Can I use standard polish on these boots?
You can use a neutral or color-appropriate wax polish. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
How often should I condition the leather?
Depending on how often you wear them, conditioning every few months will keep the leather from drying out or cracking.
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather is durable and the construction is high-quality, they are not strictly waterproof; they are water-resistant.
What is the benefit of the air-cushioned sole?
The air-cushioned sole provides extra comfort and shock absorption, making it easier to walk on hard surfaces for long periods.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too stiff on the first wear
Wear them for shorter intervals around the house initially. Using a leather conditioner like Wonder Balsam can also help soften the material.
Leather looks dull after heavy use
Clean the surface, apply a wax polish, and buff vigorously with a dedicated Dr. Martens shoe brush to restore the shine.
