There’s a reason Dr. Martens is such a well-known brand that has remained at the forefront of all the latest trends in footwear. Throughout the years, the English company, which started back in 1947, has pulled off successful collaborations with Marc Jacobs, Keith Haring, Lazy Oaf, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, just to name a few. Docs are more relevant than ever, with models, editors, and creatives making the brand’s combat boots and lug-sole loafers a season-less wardrobe staple that helps achieve a quintessential ‘90s vibe. Docs complete a variety of looks, from a breezy summer dress to jeans and a T-shirt to oversized suiting. Their versatility is what makes them a transitional shoe option that’s worth the investment.
While Dr. Martens has stayed pretty committed to the classic combat boot – continuously reinventing the wheelhouse when it comes to churning out slight variations on the silhouette – other footwear labels have also taken note and adapted the look. Prada’s chunky loafer with the metal logo on the upper, for example, takes inspiration from the same decade, while Ganni developed quirky details for the shoe, like buckle closures rather than laces and a creeper-style rubber sole.
Whether you’re searching specifically for an authentic pair of Docs or you’re wanting to check out a wide range of retailers that make similar styles, there’s some footwear here for you. Keep scrolling for 24 interesting ways to build a look around your Docs – no matter your general aesthetic – and then shop a few of our latest favorites.
