Sustainability

Doing the right thing for PEOPLE AND THE PLANET

At Dr. Martens, we have made timeless, durable products for more than six decades. As custodians of the brand, we are committed to standing by our belief in doing what is right for people and the planet - in leaving things better than we found them.

We have set ambitious long-term commitments which we are working towards across our Planet, Product, People sustainability strategy. We have a responsibility to protect our planet and contribute to the global effort to limit the impacts of climate change. To do this, we continue to take targeted actions to reduce the long-term impacts of our business and operate in a responsible and ethical way. We remain focussed on improving our own operations and supporting our supply chain to do the same. We are also committed to creating an environment where our people can thrive and feel empowered to express themselves. We believe everyone should feel supported and included whatever their role in the Dr. Martens community.

Our sustainability strategy

Committing to leave things better than we found them

We launched our sustainability strategy Planet, Product, People in 2022, with the guiding principle being to leave things better than we found them. We are not afraid to stand up for what we believe in, which is why sustainability IS embedded in our new business strategy. We are making strides on our journey – follow the links below to find out what we have achieved so far and where we want to go in the future.
