The influence of Dr. Martens undeniably changed when Pete Townshend sported a pair of 1460 boots on stage in 1967.

Well, due to this, it’s only fitting that Dr. Martens team up with Townshend’s legendary band, The Who, for a special collaborative collection. As for what to expect, the duo has dressed Shoes to t-shirts, with every piece designed to capture the scooter-riding, bespoke-suit-wearing, seaside town-crawling Mod aesthetic, all while underpinning it with Dr. Martens‘ famed durability.
