It was in the 70s that we created our square-toe last — retuning the distinctive round silhouette that has become the DM’s signature. These new 2796 Chelsea boots take inspiration from those original archive designs, but are set on a new narrower, sleeker square last to sharpen up this classic silhouette. Welted on an extra rugged 1 3/8 inch Bex sole, they’re otherwise the same Chelsea boots we’ve been turning out for decades: built from tough Smooth leather punched with our iconic yellow welt stitching and tagged with a scripted AirWair heel loop.
- The 2976 is the rugged Docs take on the classic Chelsea boot. Manufactured since the 70s
- Hardwearing and famously tough, our Smooth leather can be polished to shine or scuffed-up
- Elevated edge you can wear every day. The Bex sole is 1 3/8 inch with a rugged commando tread pattern — for traction and a chunky profile without too much height. Designed to test your limits
- Construction – Made with our Goodyear-welted lines that are heat-sealed at 700˚C and reinforced with our signature welt stitch
- Sole Height – Platform height: 1 in; Heel height: 1 3/8 in
- Footbed – Slimmer and a more tapered shape
MATERIAL
A twist on the classic Dr. Martens leather: durable, with a smooth and polished finish.
