[Cartoon Network](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortnite-adventure-time) has collaborated on a collection of [Dr Martens Adventure Time boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freizeit) that draw inspiration from the zany post-apocalyptic cartoon.

The Dr Martens Adventure Time line includes three pairs, the first of which are black and feature depictions of the show's characters Jake and Finn. The collection also has a pair to represent both Jake and Finn individually. The white pair represent Finn and feature his face, while the yellow represent his dog and companion Jake.

The Dr Martens Adventure Time collection is currently available for pre-order from Solestruck, but will also be available in Dr Martens stores after the March 2015 release.

This collection is an interesting collaboration as it potentially introduces the [cult shoemaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-awake-ny) to a new audience, and vice versa for the network.
