Dr. Martens has announced that it is partnering with fashion designer Rick Owens. Known for his post-apocalyptic reimagination of brutalist fashion, Rick Owens promises to be one of Dr. Marten's most boldest collaborations to date. The two-part collaboration in March and May explores Rick Owens' dark underground aesthetic applied to classic Dr. Marten's silhouette. Subverting its 1460 Bex platform sole boot, the March drop is bound with the designer's signature dramatic lacing system and loud with both brands' philosophy for championing the alternative. 

The first Dr. Martens x Rick Owens drop will be available from 20 March from drmartens.com. 

Dr. Martens has also collaborated with designer and engraver Johnny Dowell, AKA King Nerd. Nodding to shared energy and passion for customisation, the collaboration celebrates Dr. Marten's boots with a distinctive imprint. King Nerd has etched designs onto the metal plats and toe cap on the 1460 boot and 1461 shoe, making them completely bespoke. 

The collection is now available from drmartens.com.
