There is no doubt that Dr. Martens and A-COLD-WALL* have established a distinctive design lineage since their first meeting. Brutalist interpretations of utilitarian silhouettes defined by an architectural severity that reflects the British working class of Samuel Ross‘ childhood. And as this latest instalment was to be no different, they present a revalued silhouette in soft leather and sharp moulded edges.

The 1461 shoe is available in black or grey WP nubuck. It is a soft, water-resistant nubuck with a weathered effect that sits on a high Bex sole. The grey shoe features a translucent Iced sole with ecru stitching, while the black shoe sits on a smoked sole with yellow stitching. The silhouette is punctuated with silver rivet detailing and the laces have been replaced with a central zip with an A-COLD-WALL* branded pull tab. The Dr. Martens signature heel loop is present in shaded tones and inscribed in yellow.

The campaign, starring Jenna Fetcher, reflects the groundbreaking spirit of this exclusive union. The collection will be available on 26 May through drmartens.com and selected retailers.
