8053 Quad

Sizing: Dr. Martens only come in whole sizes and run big. If you usually wear a half size, we recommend going with the whole size below it. If you usually wear a whole size, we recommend sticking with that size.

Comfort at new heights. The 8053 shoe is a 5-eye silhouette with a padded collar — a little extra cushioning to make short work of a long day. This platform version of the shoe stands on our chunky Quad sole to elevate every outfit without compromising comfort. Our instantly recognizable yellow welt stitching and grooved edges finish the sole. The shoe is made with Polished Smooth leather, which shapes itself to your feet with every wear and looks great scuffed or buffed to a shine.

The Quad sole was built to empower as the original DM’s platform, the sole standing at 1.5 in (~3.8 cm) with a heel height of 1.875 in (~4.75 cm) and a chunky commando tread. Made with Goodyear-welted lines that are heat-sealed at 700˚C and reinforced with the iconic yellow DM welt stitch.
