To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martens 1460, the British footwear company launched

a limited range, and hosted an event in association with Vice Presents on 27th November. Living up to its close link with the music industry, the event featured performances by The Blacks Lips, Mazes, Flats to name but a few.


For the special occasion Dr. Martens designed a limited run of the 1460 en 1461, both the styles are presented in Black and Cherry Red colours. Besides the anniversary range, the boot brand asked 10 artists to record their version of a cult classic track, which represents the spirit of the people who’ve worn DM’s over the past 50 years. Dr. Martens also asked 10 directors to make videos for each of the tracks, including Rankin, Ace Norton and Anthony Burrill. With the music and video collaborations Dr. Martens wants to illustrate the diverse group of people that have worn its footwear of the last 50 years.
