Since the early 1960s Dr Martens’ boots and shoes have been manufactured using the air cushioned sole technology that has made them famous worldwide. Made by the Griggs family factory, which has been making shoes since 1901, the technology for the new soles came out of research in Germany where a private inventor made the sole to help a friend get over a ski accident. Here at Brookes we have a range of boots and shoes from this world renowned company that are ideal for numerous work environments, and also can be utilised as stylish leisure wear.

One of the best sellers we have in this range is the Dr Martens Benham Safety Hiker Boot. This lightweight boot is made from a combination of industrial synthetic Nubuck and Mesh, with a padded collar and has a steel safety toe cap which not only conforms to the current European Standard but actually exceeds it. The outsole is made from Nitrile Rubber and incorporates a puncture resistance midsole, which is also heat resistant to 300°C and is SRC slip resistant. It has a breathable mesh foam backed lining and a removable anti-static contoured and cushioned footbed. The boot is completed with metal logo eyelets and fastenings with industrial strength lacing so you know this is a boot that won’t let you down.

For those who jobs are more office based put still need to satisfy safety requirements that take a look at the FS206 Safety Shoes from Dr Martens. This particular shoe retains the Dr Martens stylish look and also retains the practicality and features of a boot to satisfy your work environment’s safety rules and regulations.
