Boots weather is officially here, and Dr Martens has slashed the cost of one of its original and highly popular 1460 designs by 50%. The 1460 Tumbled Nubuck Leather Lace Up Boots are as comfy ‘as slippers’ and usually cost £170.
The brand has reduced them to £85 in the shade ‘Savannah Tan’ (its sister colour, the muted olive, is already sold out). Coming in sizes three to 13, the boots are unisex and versatile enough to work with your favourite pair of jeans or with a pair of tights and dress.
Crafted with the brand’s staple 1460 style in mind, the eight-eyelet boot has the brand’s yellow welt stitching on the sole, contrasting its lighter, cream-coloured upper stitching. Finished with soft leather, shoppers love their comfort level from first wear.

Finished with the classic AirWair heel loop and tonal flat waxed laces, these boots will see you through the chillier temperatures and well into 2025.
Dr Martens has a reputation for being a triple threat, with most of its boots being comfortable, durable, and stylish. So it’s no wonder these particular pair have garnered a 4.9 star rating. Shoppers hail them as the ‘best pair of Docs I’ve owned’, stating they’re like slippers from day one. This soft leather is absolutely brilliant.” High praise indeed.
Another, who loved them so much they bought three pairs, shared: “Deliciously soft and comfy. My third pair! Excellent from start to finish. So soft and oh so comfy.”
The colour, too, has been marvelled at with one fan of the shoes raving: “Absolutely love them! Colour is lovely and neutral so will be easily matched with anything. Comfortable as soon as I put them on, like walking on air. Really looking forward to wearing them this winter.”
They’ve even been cited as the “Perfect boots. Perfect fit. Look amazing. Feel amazing, so comfy from the very first wear.”
While this may be the case for the vast majority, one shopper found there to be ‘too much space in the toe box and heel’. For anyone who loves the style but can’t justify the price, there are a few alternative brands to try instead.
Heavenly Feet has a number of boot styles and a similar shape costs slightly less at £64.95. While, Schuh’s Andria Lace Up Boots in Taupe are £42 has similar features such as the chunky sole, laces and neutral shade.
If you’re a fan of the lace-up look but hate the faff of fastening them, New Look’s camel-coloured boots, £39.00, come with a zip fastening to help you get the lace-up finish without the hassle. For Dr Martens’ discounted 1460 Tumbled Nubuck Leather Lace Up Boots, get them here.
