Dr. Martens' latest collaboration is alongside retailer Bodega and the result is a pair of 1461 Bodega shoes that are designed with the Winter season in mind. It features a Wintergrip outsole which is made to tackle the terrains of the snow.
The upper is made using pebbled leather in all-black complete with some nubuck accents and the Tectuff toe caps. The shoes are a celebration of two special milestones -- the 60th anniversary of Dr. Martens' 1461 and the 15th anniversary of Bodega. Additional details include the "HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT" debossed on the shoe and the black ski hook top eyelet. Rounding out the entire design is the dual-branded sock lining, the heel loop, and the yellow welt stitching.
