Skull imagery, cryptic symbols and enigmatic epigrams. Jean-Michel Basquiat was one of the most influential postmodern artists of the 20th Century. In this new collaboration, our iconic 1460 silhouette provides a new canvas for his legendary artwork. Energetic album piece ‘Beat Bop’ enhances our 8-eye boots with its graffiti-influenced symbolic print. Built from Backhand and Smooth leather, the boots are finished with yellow welt stitching, an AirWair heel loop and red and yellow tipped laces with a crown print lace charm.
- Born on 01.04.60. Named the 1460. Over six decades, our 8-eye work boot has become iconic
- Backhand is full-grain leather that’s comfortable and soft to the touch
- Hardwearing and famously tough, our Smooth leather can be polished to shine or scuffed-up. It’s up to you. Clean with a damp cloth and care with Dr. Martens Shoe Polish
- Our Goodyear-welted lines are heat-sealed at 700°C and reinforced with our signature welt stitch
