In time for the colder months of the year, Dr. Marten's and Schott NYC joined forces for the release of two new designs, dubbed the Schott 1490 and and Schott 1460.
The Schott 1490 is the taller of the two makes, with the 10-eye design boasting a sleek aesthetic that's complemented by zippers on the outer sides, which are partially covered by small snaps. The Schott 1460 is a bit shorter with an 8-eye design, and includes small silver star embellishments. The combat boots can be laced, or can have a zipper attachment clipped in for a different look.
Both boot designs use Dr. Marten's signature Smooth leather, making them durable and easy to clean.
