Raf Simmons Teams Up WIth Doc Martens

The British Designer dreams up a mettallic Marten for fall.

usa - In these tough economic times, there's nothing like diversifying projects to maintain income and interest: a trick both Raf Simmons and Doc Martens know too well. In addition to running his own label as well as mens and womens collections for Jil Sander, Simmons has extended his name and talent to a laundry list of collaborations including Asics and Fred Perry. Martens has done the same with recent partnerships with labels like Yohji Yamamoto and Stussy. So it only makes sense - and cents - for Simmons and Martens to collaborate in a venture of their own. The result is Raf Simmons for Doc Martens a collection of boots, loafers and shoes which borrow the Belgium designers clean, modern aesthetic. Our favorite out of the line has to be these mettallic versions. They add shine and sparkle - pun intended - to any look. The boots are scheduled to be in stores and online this month.
