Dr Martens Womens 1460 8-Eye Croc Black Boot

Brand Info

The Dr Martens brand was born on 1^st April 1960 and since their introduction they have created a quiet revolution within the footwear market.

Dr Klaus Maertens, based in Munich, Germany, had a number of inventions, the most special being a shoe sole that due to its honeycomb design was quite literally made of air. The Griggs family were based in Northampton, England and they had a reputation for making high quality footwear. These two parties combined forces after meeting through an advert in the classified pages and since then an icon has been born based on innovation and self expression.

Dr Martens’ classic design has been synonymous with subcultures and fashion movements from Mods in the 1960s to Punks in the 1970s and they are seen as an “anti-fashion” product with a high fashion following.

To celebrate their 50th anniversary Dr Martens have collaborated with some of the most high fashion bands around to create an album that represents both the brand and the spirit of the people who have pulled on a pair of Dr Martens over the past 50 years.

Dr Martens are committed to offering the same high quality styles that has earned them they’re reputation and every shoe they produce offers exceptional levels of comfort, practicality and durability.

Dr Martens are also dedicated to social responsibility and they choose their suppliers based on the fair treatment they show to their employees. Dr Martens work in conjunction with Impactt who are a third party who specialise in supply chain ethics.

Thanks to their steadfast stance on creating high quality products Dr Martens are sure to remain an iconic brand over the next 50 years!

Technology Explained

Benefits

Dr Martens Shoes have superior durability thanks to the upper and sole being stitched together, not just merely glued, this ensures long lasting wear. 

The honeycomb sole helps to control the temperature as it traps the air inside to keep the shoes insulated and it also provides long lasting comfort all day long. 

The leather upper gives great protection while allowing the feet to breathe. 

The air cushioned sole helps to reduce the shock and stress placed on the joints and spine, this helps to reduce aches and pains as well as minimising fatigue in the legs and feet and there is additional cushioning placed strategically underneath the ball of the foot.
