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, "Docs" or "DM's" 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. A brand built to put a bounce in the step of those who stand out from the crowd, Dr. Martens is available through Direct-to-Consumer (Retail and Ecommerce) and Wholesale channels. The brand's collections range from its Original silhouettes - The Icons such as the 1460 boot, 1461 shoe, 2976 Chelsea boot, and Adrian loafer - to modern franchises like the Zebzag, Buzz, and Lowell.
