Dr. Martens continues to build its 1460 Remastered collection with the unveiling of its third addition. This time around, the brand works in collaboration with both Babylon and BEAMS, conjoining three strong efforts. The silhouette retains its original shape as the three creative efforts create a minimal overall look.
BEAMS ensures that the design remains minimal and Babylon informs the model with its strong expertise of skate styling. The brands drew inspiration from the 'rude boys of the 60s,' infusing elements that capture the style of the streets of Jamaica. Branding details can be seen in the form of two embossed stripes at the heel in orange as a nod to BEAMS and Babylon's slogan, "Chaos" is seen on the lace charm.
