First made in the mid-'60s, the unisex 3989 Brogue shoe features a unique combo of wingtip style with AirWair Bouncing Soles - a rebellious union of proper menswear and counterculture attitude.
Part of our Lost Archives collection, this unisex shoe is made with the classic Dr. Martens Smooth leather, a lightly textured, highly durable leather with a soft sheen. The 3989 serves up tons of signature Doc's DNA, like our iconic yellow stitch, air-cushioned soles - and tons of style.
Upper: 100% Leather
Lining: 55% Leather, 45% Textile
Sole: 100% PVC
Material
Smooth - durable and famously stiff to start, this leather can be polished to a dapper shine or artfully scuffed-up depending on your preference.
Care Instructions
Wipe away dirt using a damp cloth. Apply a neutral or correct colored wax based shoe polish. Buff with a Dr. Martens Shoe Brush to restore shine as desired.
Construction
This is a Goodyear-welted product. The upper and sole are heat-sealed and sewn together, not merely glued like many footwear constructions.
