Dr. Martens is a legendary brand that has a fascinating origin story. In 1945, near Munich, Germany, Dr. Klaus Maertens injured his foot while skiing in the Bavarian Alps. To facilitate his healing process and make walking more comfortable, he designed a shoe with an air-cushioned sole. Using old rubber tires, he created soles with sealed compartments that trapped air. He shared his prototype with his engineer and inventor friend, Dr. Herbert Funck, and together they decided to develop and manufacture the shoes.
Not only did the shoe solve Dr. Maertens' immediate problem, but it also gained popularity in Germany. In 1959, the two friends realized that they needed a company to produce and distribute the shoes, which were then known as Dr. Maertens, in other parts of the world. Initially, many manufacturers rejected the idea of an air-cushioned sole, considering it a short-lived gimmick. However, the R. Griggs Group in Wollaston, England, embraced the concept and created the first work boot with this revolutionary sole.
