From Workwear to Global Style Icon

Dr. Martens has a story that stretches far beyond fashion. Founded in Northamptonshire, England, the British footwear brand introduced its first and most iconic silhouette, the 1460 boot, on April 1, 1960.

Originally designed with comfort and durability in mind, the boots were embraced by workers who appreciated their distinctive air-cushioned soles. Over time, however, Dr. Martens found a much broader audience.

Musicians, artists, and members of various youth and subcultural movements adopted the footwear, transforming Dr. Martens from practical workwear into an enduring symbol of individuality and self-expression.

Today, the brand’s signature details—including its yellow welt stitching, grooved sole edges, and distinctive heel loops—remain instantly recognizable around the world.

The store also features modern franchises such as Zebzag, Buzz, and Lowell, expanding the brand’s offerings for customers seeking fresh interpretations of the unmistakable Dr. Martens aesthetic.

Beyond footwear, the collection includes sandals, bags, small leather goods, and accessories, making the new location a destination for those looking to incorporate the brand’s distinctive style into different parts of their wardrobe.

The opening represents another step in Dr. Martens’ growing presence in the Philippines and places the brand in one of Metro Manila’s most dynamic commercial districts.

For travelers and lifestyle enthusiasts spending time in Makati, Glorietta remains a convenient place to experience the city’s evolving retail scene. The arrival of Dr. Martens adds another internationally recognized fashion name to the area’s extensive selection of shopping destinations.

More than six decades after the first 1460 boot rolled off the production line, Dr. Martens continues to balance heritage with modern design. Its footwear has moved from factories and music venues to city streets and fashion capitals, while maintaining the rebellious and individualistic spirit that helped build its global following.

With its new Glorietta store, Makati shoppers now have another place to step into that legacy—one built on craftsmanship, comfort, and the confidence to stand out from the crowd.
