Dr. Martens launches new repair service in collaboration with The Boot Repair Co.

Dr. Martens has teamed up with UK footwear restorers The Boot Repair Co. on a new service to prolong the life of its boots, shoes, sandals and accessories – using the same machines, methods and materials used on new pairs.

Offering more than 10 different services, from sole replacements and stitching repairs to zip and eyelet replacements, the services start at £22 for an upper repair on non-welted footwear and go up to £79 for welted footwear resoled using classic DMs translucent "bouncing soles".

Customers just need to visit the ‘Repair Service’ page on the Dr. Martens website, where it says ‘Rebuilt. Reborn. Returned’, add the service they want to their basket and select ‘return delivery’ at checkout.

Then they will need to package their DM’s securely along with the order confirmation and take them to their nearest Post Office.

A spokesperson for Dr. Martens said: "Whilst we pride ourselves on the durability of our products, we know that our wearers purchase our shoes and accessories to be worn day in and day out, making it impossible for them not to experience general wear and tear.

"As a brand, we care about the longevity of our silhouettes and we know our customers do too, so launching our repair service felt like a great way to give customers the option to breathe new life into their well worn Doc’s."
