Here at Grazia HQ, we are all about Dr. Martens in any and every colour, patterns and style (and there are lots). They’re one of those investment pieces that will see you through every season, alongside your beloved Hunter wellies and Havaianas flip-flops.
But besides that, we obviously have other reasons why we love our fave combat boots:
1 THEY’RE PERFECT FOR MUSIC FESTS
As glamorous as the idea of wearing gladiators to a music fest sounds, we sometimes need to be realistic and practical, because not only will your feet be dirty 24/7, your beloved glads will be ruined. So when you see your fave celebs rocking out at Coachella in any glads (or gulp, heels) just know that they’re not really rocking out. Instead, they’re just posing for pics.
2 THEY GO WITH EVERYTHING
Whether you’re wearing a skater skirt and crop top separate, jeans and a tee or going for a military look with those khaki pants, your Docs are like the shoe version of jeans in The Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants, and go with everything and can suit anyone, no matter your style.
3 THEY WORK FOR EVERY SEASON
And we’re not talking about fashion seasons, we‘re talking about actual weather seasons. Whether you’re styling ‘em bare legged with a dress or fashioning them with your fave pair of skinnies in winter, these shoes should be sitting front and centre in your wardrobe.
4 THEY’RE THE PERFECT ANTI-STATEMENT STATEMENT
Docs originated in the 80s, a time where fashion represented chaos and – ironically – making a statement by not making a statement through your clothes. The connotation still exists, so, if you’re looking for an effortless and understated look, Dr. Martens are your new BFF.
