The A. Sauvage x Dr. Martens collaboration marks an ingenious merge between an up-and-coming menswear label and a resilient and relevant shoe company.
A. Sauvage is a talented English designer and photographer who has released several short films in the past. His passion for menswear, film and collaboration with Dr. Martens together manifested the short film titled ‘The Student.’ The film follows an awkward young man in black and white shots. Each frame is delicate, meant to express a sense of eccentricity and showcases the collection. The collaborative collection features a series of chic men’s Oxford style shoes in black patent, navy and one pair comes with a white sole.
The A. Sauvage x Dr. Martens monochrome video is offbeat, shows off the collection of footwear and is memorable.
