EMBEDDING SUSTAINABILITY IN EVERYTHING WE DO

At Dr. Martens, we have made timeless, durable products for more than six decades. As custodians of the brand we are committed to embedding sustainability in everything we do, as we aim to leave things better than we found them.

We have set ambitious long-term commitments which we are working towards across our sustainability strategy. We are supporting our consumers to extend the lifespan of their Dr. Martens products through repair and resale services, to keep them in use for longer. At the same time, we continue to explore and adopt lower-impact and innovative materials, while strengthening responsible practices across our own operations and supporting our supply chain to do the same.

We also support the global UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through our strategy. The SDGs and UN Targets most relevant to us and which the work of our sustainability strategy supports are:
