About
The story of Dr. Martens begins in 1945, when Dr. Klaus Maertens, a 25-year-old German medic, designed an air-cushioned sole to ease a ski-related ankle injury. Impressed at how well his own invention helped him heal, Maertens took a prototype of his shoe to an old friend who went on to become a mechanical engineer, Dr. Herbert Funk. The two joined forces and started creating shoes using left-over military supplies. In 1947, they began official production of Dr. Martens shoes.
