Dr. Martens is the British brand of iconic footwear founded in 1960 in Wollaston, England: boots with yellow stitching, AirWair sole, and a rebellious attitude. Made famous by the 1460 model, it has become a cultural symbol from punk to contemporary fashion. At Vittorio Citro you find the official Dr. Martens collection — combat boots, boots, sandals, and original Chelseas — from an authorized retailer active in fashion for over 100 years.

The brand’s history
The origins date back to 1945, when German doctor Klaus Märtens invented an air-cushioned sole to recover from a skiing injury. In 1959, the British Griggs family acquired the license, and on April 1, 1960, the legendary 1460 boot was born (the number indicates the date: 1-4-60). Distinctive features: yellow stitching, the patented AirWair sole with air cushion, Goodyear welt construction, and durable leather that molds with wear. Today Dr. Martens is distributed in over 60 countries.
