50 Years Of Dr Martens

Dr Martens turns 50 this year and to celebrate they have collaborated with 10 artists



"To celebrate our 50th Anniversary, we 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. We also asked 10 directors to make videos for each of the tracks."

One of our favorites is the Noisettes cover of Ever Fallen In Love With Someone You Shouldn't by the Buzzcocks. Video directed by Rankin and Chris

Bnn remembers when DM's were the only boots to be wearing in the 90s. You would team them up with your Trends suit from Dalston, or customised studded jeans rudegal style. Now we've fallen back in love with them especially the Darcie patent black ones.

My Dad found these years ago and thought I would like them. I was doing art A level and decided to cut them up for collarge (I regret that now).
