Dr. Martens
Dr. Martens
Dr. Martens, also referred to as Docs, was first introduced to the footwear scene in 1960 by Dr. Klaus Maertens and Dr. Herbert Funk. Known for their wide variety of footwear, including oxfords, Chelsea boots, combat boots, loafers, and more, Dr. Martens is well-known for their iconic welt yellow stitching placed throughout each silhouette. Their grunge-like designs were initially intended for England's postmen, police officers, and factory workers. The Dr. Martens boots and other footwear from the brand were worn by rebel teens who helped transition it into everyday apparel and wardrobes worldwide. Some of the brand's most notable silhouettes include the 1460, Bex, 1461, and the Dr. Martens 1461. The functional and individualistic designs put forth by the Doc Martens brand remain as a staple within closets. Dr. Martens has done a variety of footwear collaborations with notable brands such as Lazy Oaf, Stussy, and Mura Suicoke.
