| Dr Martens | |
| The Doc Martens phenomenon came about through an unlikely union of two kindred spirits in distinctly different countries. In Munich, Germany, Dr Klaus Maertens had a garage full of inventions, including a shoe sole almost literally made of air; in Northampton, England, the Griggs family had a history of making quality footwear and their heads were full of ideas. They met, like a classic band audition, through an advert in the classified pages of a magazine. A marriage was born, an icon conceived of innovation and self-expression. | ![]() |
Dr. Martens is a footwear, clothing and accessories brand, and the footwear products are most often known as Doc Martens, Docs and Doc Martens Boots. The Dr Martens concept was first established in the 1940's. Over the years Dr Martens boots have evolved from the famous 8 tie boots to incorporate a whole range of fresh and innovative designs. This special footwear has uniqueness because of its air-cushioned sole, which was developed by Dr. Klaus Martens of Germany.
