Dr. Martens‘ luxury, thick-soled boots have had quite an evolution since their original founding as workwear shoes in 1940s Germany. By the 1960s, they became a staple of the punk rock scene, becoming a sartorial symbol of the counterculture before hitting the mainstream.
Their popularity was first helped by bold-faced names such as The Who’s Pete Townshend trendsetting them onto the catwalks. Now, it’s nearly impossible to walk outside without seeing Docs out in the wild, with everyone from Tyler the Creator and Bella Hadid to Olivia Rodrigo and Dua Lipa boasting the versatile shoes as wardrobe staples. Best of all, many of their’ best styles are on sale for Black Friday — just in time for seasonal closet switch-outs and holiday gifting.
