Dr. Martens is an iconic British footwear brand founded in Northamptonshire, England. Its first silhouette, the 1460 boot — named after the date it was produced — rolled off the production line on 1st April 1960. Originally chosen by workers for their air-cushioned comfort and durability, “Doc’s” or “DM’s” boots and shoes were later adopted by musicians and subcultural pioneers who took them from the street to the global stage.
Over six decades later, Dr. Martens operates in more than 60 countries and employs around 3,700 people. The company continues to honour the brand’s heritage through its Made in England footwear, manufactured at its original Northamptonshire factory, while meeting global demand from multiple high-quality production sites across Asia. All our products are made with an unwavering commitment to craft, combined with innovative techniques.
