Dr. Martens is a British footwear company founded in 1960. Its most well-known product, the 1460 AirWair boots, was honored as a British cultural icon in 2006. Dr. Martens' boots initially found popularity with women above 40, who found them very comfortable. Later, British police officers started wearing them, albeit for different reasons. But what really made the brand iconic, however, was its popularity among musicians and celebrities.
