To make walking easier during the healing process, he designed a shoe with an air-cushioned sole. Using old rubber tires, he constructed soles that had air trapped within closed compartments. He showed his prototype to his engineer/inventor friend, Dr. Herbert Funck, and together they decided to develop and produce the shoes. Not only did the shoe solve the doctor's immediate problem, but it also started to sell well in Germany. By 1959 the two founders decided that they needed a company to produce and distribute the shoes, then called Dr. Maertens, in other parts of the world. At first, many manufacturers rejected the concept of an air cushioned sole as a short-lived gimmick. However, the R. Griggs Group, located in the village of Wollaston in England, decided to go along with the idea by creating the first work boot with the revolutionary sole. On the first of April 1960, the first cherry red eight-eyelet work boot was produced and named 1460 (1/4/60). To sell the brand name better in England, the name was anglicized to Dr. Martens. The range was branded AirWair and the rest is history. ## Features - THE PUNK: The original boot with higher laces and more attitude; Classic punk silhouette with 10 eyes, grooved edges and yellow stitching - AIR-CUSHIONED: Dr. Martens famous “bouncing” AirWair soles are comfortable, oil and fat resistant and provide good abrasion and slip resistance - MADE LIKE NO OTHER: Boots built to pound the pavement; The leather upper and sole are heat-sealed together for exceptional durability - AUTHENTIC AS YOU: Made with classic leather that only gets better with time; Use Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to protect the leather and keep your boots clean, soft and supple - KICK THE NORM: From utilitarian work boot to cultural icon, Dr. Martens became a symbol of self-expression; Stand up, stand out and wear them well ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000BNRWDE | | ASIN | B000BNRWDE | | Best Sellers Rank | #7,357,412 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #52,012 in Women's Boots | | Boot Form Type | Combat | | Brand | Dr. Martens | | Closure Type | Lace-Up | | Color | Black Smooth | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (17) | | Date First Available | October 24, 2005 | | Department | unisex-adult | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00768396002267, 00800090823288 | | Heel Type | Block Heel, low-heel | | Insole Material | Ethylene Vinyl Acetate or Polyurethane | | Item Weight | 900 g | | Item model number | 11857001 | | Manufacturer | Dr. Martens | | Manufacturer | Dr. Martens | | Material Fabric | Leather | | Model Name | Dr. Martens Number of 1490 | | Occasion | Work | | Outer Material | Rubber | | Pattern | Solid | | Product Dimensions | 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches; 1.98 pounds | | Seasons | Spring | | Shaft Circumference | 14 inches | | Shoe Height Map | Ankle-High, Mid-Calf | | Sole Material | Manmade | | Style Name | Boot | | Style Number | 11857001 | | Toe Style | Closed Toe | | UPC | 768396002267 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | lining-description | Leather | ## Images ![Dr. Martens Unisex 1490 Smooth Leather Mid Calf Boots, Black Smooth, 5 US Women/4 US Men - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fvduiXlwL.jpg) ![Dr. Martens Unisex 1490 Smooth Leather Mid Calf Boots, Black Smooth, 5 US Women/4 US Men - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61O33j+sjvL.jpg) ![Dr. Martens Unisex 1490 Smooth Leather Mid Calf Boots, Black Smooth, 5 US Women/4 US Men - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71LHIq6c43L.jpg) ![Dr. Martens Unisex 1490 Smooth Leather Mid Calf Boots, Black Smooth, 5 US Women/4 US Men - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61oINJJL0QL.jpg) ![Dr. Martens Unisex 1490 Smooth Leather Mid Calf Boots, Black Smooth, 5 US Women/4 US Men - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71F5DBdYopL.jpg) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/28643954-dr-martens-unisex-1490-smooth-leather-mid-calf-boots-black](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/28643954-dr-martens-unisex-1490-smooth-leather-mid-calf-boots-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-08-08*
