Dr Martens is collaborating with upcycling company Our Legacy for a collection that features offcuts from tanneries, writes ILM.
The Our Legacy Workshop collaboration has been created with leather offcuts from two tanneries which are Horween and C. F. Stead.
Heavyweight Chromexel leather from Horween forms the upper for the first shoe in the limited collection, while Desert Oasis red suede from C. F. Stead was used to create the second shoe.
The Workshop collection was launched in 2016 by Our Legacy to recycle and repurpose old garments and ensure that no effort or material is wasted.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
