How To Style Dr. Martens

Dr. Martens offer a distinct look easily recognized by all. With their rugged edge style and unique takes on boots and sandals, one might think ‘Docs’ (as many have coined them), only fit a certain look.  But with a variety of styles, incredible quality and unmatched comfort, we beg to differ. For more than 30 years, Abbadabba’s has carried Dr. Martens and we continue to be one of the only locations in Atlanta with such a wide array of their styles.  We rounded up our favorite ways to show off your Docs below!

The Classic Look 
Tights and Docs are a classic combination. Plain black tights effortlessly balance out the classic look of the 1460’s and expand the range of possible outfit options you can wear with these shoes. Pair your tights-and-Docs combo with high-waisted cutoff shorts and a plain tee for a trendy finish that still looks put-together! You can also go for a different, dressier date night look by throwing on a sundress.

A Bold Twist
Looking for a fun new pair of shoes to wear around campus? Try embracing the classic, bold, and edgy style of Doc Martens with the fresh floral look of the Pascal 8-Eye Rose Skull Boots. Skulls not your style? Then create some flash in a pair of Glitter Boots. Patterns and prints on shoes are a fun way to spice up any outfit, and adding both of these options to your closet will add a bold touch to any ensemble. 

Add Some Edge
Distressed jeans are a must for creating edgy looks with your Docs and are perfect for lounging in the dorm room to hitting the streets. The texture of ripped jeans adds depth to your outfit that balances out the heaviness of your boots. If you want to add a more grungy vibe to your look, pair dark jeans with a loose tee and a denim jacket on top! Or go for a classier, more sophisticated finish with your boots and pair them with high-waisted black jeans, a blouse, and a leather jacket. 

These tips are just some of our favorite ways to style Dr.Martens! The options are endless, which is why this brand stands out from the rest. Shop our entire Doc’s collection by coming into any of our 3 locations in Little Five Points, Buckhead or East Cobb!
