DARK BROWN CRAZY HORSE
Style: 11849201
| Technical Component | Specification Detail |
|---|---|
| Design and Silhouette | The 8053 is a 5-eye casual shoe that sits between the 1461 three-eyelet oxford and the 1460 eight-eyelet boot in the Dr. Martens lineup. The silhouette is more relaxed and chunky than the 1461 - a casual everyday shoe rather than a dress oxford - with a padded ankle collar that adds comfort and a slightly more substantial profile. |
| Crazy Horse Leather | Crazy Horse is Dr. Martens' oil-finished, distressed leather - a pull-up leather that develops a unique patina with wear. Scratches and scuffs lighten the surface and can be rubbed out with your thumb, creating a lived-in, characterful finish that gets better over time rather than showing wear. The Dark Brown colorway deepens and warms with use, developing a rich two-tone effect across the surface. |
| Welt Construction | Built with classic Dr. Martens DNA - grooved edges, visible stitching, and the Goodyear welt construction that has defined the brand since 1960. The welt process heat-seals and stitches the sole to the upper, making it significantly more durable and resoleable than cemented construction. |
| Sole and Comfort | The AirWair air-cushioned bouncing sole delivers oil and fat resistant, slip resistant, and abrasion resistant performance underfoot. The padded ankle collar adds comfort and support around the ankle, making the 8053 one of the more comfortable Dr. Martens styles straight out of the box compared to the stiffer 1461 oxford. |
| Fit and Sizing | Men's sizing listed with equivalent Women's sizing (Women's runs 1 size larger). Available in Men's M8 (Women's W9), M9 (Women's W10), M10 (Women's W11), and M11 (Women's W12). Dr. Martens sizing runs true to size for most - if between sizes, size up. Crazy Horse leather is softer and more pliable than Smooth leather, making the 8053 easier to break in than the 1461. The padded ankle collar also reduces heel rubbing during the early break-in period. Apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam regularly to keep the leather conditioned and accelerate the softening process. |
WASH & CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Wipe away surface dirt with a soft damp cloth. For scuffs on the Crazy Horse leather, rub gently with your thumb or a soft cloth - the pull-up effect means light marks will often disappear with friction. Apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam or a quality leather conditioner regularly to keep the Crazy Horse leather supple and enhance the patina development. Avoid heavy water saturation. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash.
