Dr. Martens shoes have been an icon of rebellion, individuality, and durability since their debut in 1960. Crafted with exceptional quality, each pair tells a story of resilience and style. However, the increasing demand has led to a surge in counterfeit Dr. Martens shoes flooding the market. To avoid falling victim to imitation, here's what you need to look out for:

1. Stitchin

Genuine Dr. Martens feature a distinctive yellow welt stitching that holds the sole in place. Look for evenly spaced, tight, and consistent stitches. Counterfeit versions may have loose or sloppy stitching, often in a different color.

2. Logo and Branding

Pay close attention to the logo and branding on the shoe. Authentic Dr. Martens will have a logo embossed on the heel loop, soles, and insole. Check for clear, crisp, and high-quality branding. Counterfeit shoes often have poorly done, blurry, or incorrect logos.
