The Wing Tip Dr. Martens Let You Look the Part But Still Be Punk

— March 18, 2010 — Fashion
When I first read about these boots, I actually yelled out loud, "Oh my god, Wing Tip Dr. Martens!" several times. So, yes, I am excited about these--that is for sure.

Dr. Martens teamed with Japanese brand Uniform Experiment to unleash these bad boys. The Wing Tip Dr. Martens come in two rad colorways, and are available only in the 7-hole style for the time being. You will be sure to show up any of the skeezy punk kids who hang around.

2. Revival of Retro Styles - The Wing Tip design of the Dr. Martens boots taps into the trend of bringing back vintage and classic fashion elements, appealing to consumers nostalgic for past eras.
3. Alternative Subculture Influences - The punk-inspired design and rebellious aesthetic of the Wing Tip Dr. Martens targets the growing trend of consumers seeking alternative fashion choices that defy mainstream norms.
Industry Implications

2. Footwear - The collaboration between Dr. Martens and Uniform Experiment presents opportunities for the footwear industry to tap into alternative subcultures and revive retro styles to attract a niche consumer base.
