It’s safe to say that after more than fifty years in business, Dr. Martens do not disappoint. What started as a small collection of boots and shoes has developed into a full blown menswear range that features everything from clothing to accessories, along with stores all over the world. The latest collection from this iconic brand is simply named ‘Tattoo’, and has dropped just in time for spring.
The collection sees the obvious return of the iconic 1460 boot and 1461 shoe but with noticeable differences. Retro inspired tattoo designs such as skulls, anchors and ships have been imprinted onto the shoes in bright, bold colours that will make the wearer effotlessly stand out from the crowd this season. Some of you may be thinking: “Why would I need to buy boots in spring?” But let’s face it, we’re in Britain and we shouldn’t try to kid ourselves.
Thankfully, the collection doesn’t stop here – two new leather satchels have also been released. The designs again take inspiration from classic tattoos, with each bag featuring various imprints similar to those seen on the footwear. Two gold fastening buckles grace the front of each bag, and the famous Dr. Martens logo finishes off these 11″ or 15″ satchels perfectly.
Every single item in the collection is available in black, red or brown. This palette was carefully considered as the design team wanted to produce a retro aesthetic that gave off an old-fashioned, back-to-basics, beginning of Dr. Martens feel.
Available online now at Dr. Martens and in all Dr. Martens stores.
