Dr. Marten's Wintergrip Pack Prepares for Winter Conditions
Dr. Martens introduces its 'Wintergrip' pack for Fall/Winter 2018, designed to combat the terrain that comes with the colder seasons. The collection is comprised of signature silhouettes including the 'classic 1460 8-Eye' boots, the '2976 Chelsea' boots, the '1460 Kolbert,' the '2976 Alyson,' and the '8053.' Notably, all of the uppers are elevated with a 'Snowplow' construction -- this means that it is informed with water-repellent leather.
This material also repels salt grit that is often found on the ground during the snowy season. The silhouettes are lined with fleece for warm and comfortable elements -- it also sits on top of the high-performing Wintergrip sole to prevent slips. The colorway options for the rugged designs highlight black, dark brown, and 'Cocoa.'
