The uppers are made from 100% Patent Lamper leather, which is a fine-grained leather coated for a high-shine, glossy finish. The lining is 100% textile, the cushioning is 100% leather, and the sole is 100% PVC.
For junior models of the 1460, these boots feature both a traditional lace-up fastening and a convenient inside zip, making them quick and easy to put on and take off.
While the leather uppers offer some water resistance, Dr. Martens 1460 Junior Boots are not fully waterproof. They are suitable for general wet conditions but not designed for submersion or heavy rain without additional waterproofing treatment.
These boots are listed in UK children's sizing. It's recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it to a Dr. Martens size chart to ensure the best fit. The width fitting is generally Standard.
Yes, their durable construction, classic black color, and comfortable AirWair™ sole make them an excellent and stylish choice for everyday school wear, as well as for weekend and casual use.
The AirWair™ sole is Dr. Martens' signature air-cushioned sole, which is oil, fat, acid, petrol, and alkali resistant. It provides excellent abrasion and slip resistance, as well as superb comfort and durability.
The boot height is approximately 11cm for a size 31 (US Kids' 13). This provides an ankle-height fit, offering support and protection.
Like many quality leather boots, Dr. Martens may require a short break-in period. Encourage your child to wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Thick socks can also help provide comfort during this phase. The AirWair sole will become more flexible over time.
Clean the boots thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any surface dirt. To restore shine, use a patent leather cleaner and follow the product's instructions. For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft cloth and a small amount of patent leather conditioner or even a drop of olive oil, then wipe clean.
Ensure the laces are loosened sufficiently to allow ample space for the foot to enter or exit, which reduces tension on the zipper. Check that no fabric or debris is caught in the zipper teeth. If the zipper is stiff, a tiny amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied carefully to the teeth.
These boots are a versatile choice for a range of children's clothing styles, from casual jeans and skirts to school uniforms. They are suitable for various weather conditions, offering good foot protection. The 'kids' age group and 'Standard' width fitting ensure a comfortable fit for most children.
