Factory work boots and a cushioned sole developed by a medical doctor recuperating from a broken foot seem like an incredibly unlikely starting point for footwear that would become a staple of cutting-edge youth culture.
But why would a shoe synonymous with individualistic style have a story about doing things the usual way? After widespread adoption by subcultures in 1960s England unlocked the fashion potential of their humble work boots, the genie was well and truly out of the bottle and the genre-hopping style of Dr. Martens was born.
The Adrian rolled off the production line in the 70s - fusing mod-like smartness with DM's-level durability. A subcultural favorite for decades, the Adrian loafer is a versatile silhouette fromthe Dr. Martens Archive.This time, Dr. Martens revamped the shoe with full-grain Westminster leather from C. F. Stead for an embossed, two-tone finish. The loafer is fitted with an antique gold snaffle trim and stands on a rugged BEN sole with a plain welt and a rugged commando tread.
