Technical details

Cushioning

There has been additional cushioning added within the structure of these shoes.

Dr Martens AirWair

A granular rubber compound is melted into a liquid and then injected into a mould which produces a unit that incorporates the famous AirWair technology, as well as offering resistance to a number of industrial elements, such as oil and acid petrol. The honeycomb design in the top portion of the sole (below the midsole) creates shock-absorbing, cushioned air pockets. The sole is then attached to the welt by being placed against a red hot blade to create a watertight seal.

Dr Martens Classic Sole

Classic Dr Martens soles are oil, petrol, acid alkali resistant

Goodyear Welt Construction

Goodyear Welted construction gets its strength, durability and repair qualities by stitching the shoe upper leather, lining leather and welt (a specially prepared piece of leather) to the ribbing that has already been bonded to the insole. The welt is then stitched to the leather or rubber sole.

Laces

These shoes use a traditional laced closure.

Leather

These shoes have been made with leather components.

Oil Resistant

The shoes' soles are oil acid resistant.

PVC

PVC is used in the soles and uppers of shoes. It provides a synthetic alternative to traditional leather. It is also innovative through its capacity to be molded into shape. Footwear also makes extensive use of PVC to provide shock absorbance, support, and strength in demanding use environments.
