Spirit of 69

Last week iconic British boot brand Dr. Martens marked the launch of its Fall ’14 collection with a three-floor takeover of The Delancey in New York City’s Lower East Side. Aptly titled the Spirit of ’69, the collection harks back to the original tribe that wore and believed in the culture of the brand and brings together such collaborators as Trojan Records, Alpha Jackets, Brutus Shirts and Edwin Jeans. We spoke to Sara LaHaie, U.S. brand marketing and PR manager for Dr. Martens, about the collection and the brand’s ongoing #StandforSomething campaign.
