2021 marks the 60th anniversary of Dr. Martens iconic 1461 shoe, the smooth, leather oxford look that Dr. Martens is known for. And, Dr. Martens has gone above and beyond to make a splash this year by partnering with two Japanese streetwear labels, A BATHING APE® and mastermind JAPAN to redesign its classic shoe. This East meets West collaboration merges three distinct subcultures, offering A BATHING APE®’s ‘shark mouth’ on one shoe, and mastermind JAPAN’s ‘skull’ on the other. The collab also features a triple branded dog tag, antique black ‘mastermind JAPAN’ and ‘A BATHING APE®’ branded lace charms, a tri-branded sock liner, and of course, classic Dr. Martens details including a black and yellow heel loop and yellow welt stitching.
