Product Description Named after the date of its creation, 1st April, 1961, our 1461 shoe has become iconic. Originally sold as a durable working man’s shoe, in the 70s and 80s the style became popular with political protesters, and as a fashion item at universities across Britain. Today it’s worn as a symbol of rebellious self-expression by individuals from all walks of life. This 1461 shoe stays true to the original and features a hardwearing Smooth leather upper, classic 3-eye fastening and yellow welt stitch; finished with an ultra comfortable AirWair technology and slip-resistant sole.
