After sparking rumors of a collaboration with an Instagram post earlier this year, JJJJound’s link-up with footwear stalwarts Dr. Martens has finally been unveiled.The Canadian label — which began as a compilation of inspiring imagery and harmonious design references back in 2006 — has partnered with the likes of New Balance, Vans and Reebok over the last few years, as well as a more recent accessories release with Japanese brand PORTER.Now though, teaming up with Dr. Martens for the first time, JJJJound reimagines the epochal Archie II silhouette in both “Dark Brown Crazy Horse” and “Black Wyoming” leathers, with the former said to represent the contemporary creative, and the latter the traditional creative.Hand-crafted in Dr. Martens’ Wollaston-based factory, each shoe houses the brand’s instantly-recognisable signature yellow welt stitching, with the Wyoming sitting atop a “Smoke” V18 outsole and the “Brown Crazy Horse” upon a trans V18 outsole.Both finished with a JJJJound sewn-in tab, a set of blind eyelets and a dual-branded sock liner, the Dr. Martens x JJJJound collaboration will be available from July 31 via the Dr. Martens webstore.In other news, PLEASURES has reworked Reebok’s Club C 85 and Club C Legacy for its latest collaboration.Click here to view full gallery at HYPEBEAST
