2976 Chelsea Black Patent Boots

Although the first Dr. Martens 2976 Chelsea boot was created back in the 1970s, its original design dates back even further to the Victorian era. Farmers were drawn to its snug fit and convenient elastic ankle gusset, but the kickass style was just an unexpected bonus. Today, the 2976 Chelsea boot is a sleek and fashion-forward choice for men and women alike. Slip them on with ease thanks to the elastic gussets, and enjoy all the signature Doc' details such as our iconic stitching, grooved sides, and scripted heel-loops. These boots are part of our 'Lost Archives' collection and are crafted from the classic Dr. Martens Smooth leather, a lightly textured patent material. And of course, they sit atop our famously comfortable air-cushioned sole.
