In the 80s and 90s, Smiley® became the symbol of electronic music subcultures founded on acceptance and uninhibited joy — the 1460 Smiley® boot celebrates music’s positivity and the defiant optimism of the dancefloor. The 8-eye boot is built with our black Smooth leather, an all-over Smiley® deboss detail and yellow upper stitching. The boot is fitted with yellow eyelets and dual laces: a black pair with Smiley® text and a secondary yellow pair with the Smiley® branded icon. DM’s enduring DNA is evident from top to sole, with a black and yellow heel loop and signature yellow welt stitching to secure the grooved DMS outsole. Smiley® branded detailing is also on the boot’s sock and footpad.
