In celebration of the famed Irish holiday, Dr. Martens has added the 1460 St. Patrick's Day to its selection -- a unique take on its classic combat boot style, featuring a subtle hint of emerald green with Celtic symbols embossed over top of the high-end leather material.
The Celtic symbolism is featured all over the uppers, but stands out the most on the deep emerald portions, where more contrast is provided. Although noticeable, the hints of emerald and designs are subtle enough that the combat boots can be sported with a wide range of different looks -- making them well worth the investment.
The 1460 St. Patrick's Day boots are available in both women's and men's sizing for a limited time through the Dr. Marten's website, as well as at participating retailers.
