Shop / musshoe high platform sandals
The Dr. Martens women's sandals, known for their classic durability and tough attitude, feature a new voss wedge platform style that blends edgy and comfortable design. These sandals are built on a super-lightweight EVA sole with a ripple tread, offering stability and traction. Crafted with a smooth, coated leather in a matte finish, the sandals boast a sturdy, lightweight zig-zag sole that exudes the brand's legendary DNA.
Originating from Germany in 1945, the Dr. Martens story began when Dr. Klaus Maertens injured his foot in a skiing accident in the Bavarian Alps. To ease his healing process, he designed a shoe with an air-cushioned sole using old rubber tires. Impressed by the prototype, his engineer/inventor friend, Dr. Herbert Funck, collaborated with him to develop and produce the shoes, which were initially called Dr. Maertens.
The air-cushioned sole design not only solved the doctor's immediate problem but also gained popularity in Germany. By 1959, the two decided to expand the production and distribution of the shoes globally. However, many manufacturers initially dismissed the concept as a passing fad. But the R. Griggs Group, located in the village of Wollaston, England, recognized the potential and created the first work boot with the revolutionary sole. On April 1, 1960, the first cherry red eight-eyelet work boot, named 1460, was produced, and the brand name was anglicized to Dr. Martens.
The Dr. Martens women's sandals are designed with two adjustable buckles, allowing for a customizable fit. It is important to note that these sandals tend to run large, so it is advisable to order a size down for the best fit.
The fabric type of the sandals is leather, and the sole material is man-made. For care instructions, the sandals should only be hand-washed, as they are imported.
In summary, the Dr. Martens women's sandals are a testament to the brand's enduring legacy, blending classic durability with a contemporary, comfortable wedge platform design. The sandals' air-cushioned sole, sturdy construction, and adjustable buckles make them a versatile and reliable choice for fashion-conscious wearers.
