Dr Marten Boots
A man called Dr Maertens and his university friend Dr Funck invented an air-cushioned sole and were looking for like-minded innovators. A man called Griggs whose family had been in the boot making profession since 1901 contacted Dr Maertens and a name was decided on, a plan hatched and the first pair of Dr Marten boots were made on the 1st of April 1960. At first it was mainly working men that wore the Dr Marten boots, then were very popular with men with ‘skinheads’ and punk people. Over the years Dr Martens have been in and out of fash-ion but are gradually getting more and more popular. They are known for their bulkyness, bright colours and how different they are.
