The LGBTQIA+ community has worn and championed Dr. Martens from the very beginning. They are built into the DNA of the brand. This year we’re committed to supporting, elevating and celebrating the community that means so much to us. Not just once a year. Gender identity and sexual orientation matter every single day. As part of our commitment to support the community we're donating over €207,500 to LGBTQIA+ charities across the globe, including AKT (Albert Kennedy Trust) — an LGBTQIA+ homelessness charity, Le Refuge Foundation — a youth LGBTQIA+ charity, Jugend gegen Aids — a charity that tackles the stigma of sexual education and Refuge LGBT — a charity that provides shelter and support to victims of homophobia.  

A statement of solidarity. We’re proud to stand with our LGBTQIA+ wearers and community. Our classic 1461 silhouette in complete sole to stitch monochrome white amplify the colours of Daniel Quasar’s Progress Pride flag emblazoned on the Smooth leather upper. Inclusivity and representation for all to see.

• Second off the DM’s production line, the 1461 is a 3-eye shoe championed for its versatility
• Hardwearing and famously tough, our Smooth leather can be polished to shine or scuffed-up
