DR. MARTENS
Born from a broken foot and a pile of discarded rubber, Dr. Martens is the ultimate "utility-turned-icon" success story.
What started as a German doctor’s DIY orthopedic solution in 1945 was bought by the British Griggs family, who added the now-legendary yellow stitching and AirWair soles. On April 1, 1960, the 1460 boot hit the streets, and footwear was never the same.
