MIE 3989 Brogue Shoes”, a vintage model made in England

Dr. Martens’ 3989 model was introduced in the mid-1960s. The “MIE 3989 Brogue Shoes” faithfully reproduce the specifications of that time and are manufactured in Northampton, England, just as they were back then. The “MIE” stands for “Made in England,” and since the MIE collection is manufactured in a small factory in the U.K., there are many Dr. Martens fans who insist on the U.K.-made models because they are rare and are produced in extremely small numbers compared to models from other countries. The QUILON leather is characterized by its matte and fine texture, and has a mature atmosphere different from that of smooth leather. The brown side of each leather part can be seen only in this model. The design of MIE, which radiates a deep flavor, is especially popular among adult men, and matches with austere, classic styling. The candy-colored outsole gives the MIE a one-rank higher quality design, which is also a point of fascination for men.

3989 CHROME EXCEL Brogue Shoes “, featuring a combination of austere colors

This MADE IN ENLAND model is made of ” Chromexcel leather “, a famous leather from Horween Leather Company, a long-established leather tannery in Chicago, U.S.A., which was established in 1905. Chromexcel leather is “combination-tanned”, a technique developed about 100 years ago. This is a tanning process that combines two different tanning methods: tannin-tanning, which is often used for leather goods, and chrome-tanning, which is often used for leather goods. This tanning process is said to result in a durable and flexible leather with a texture that can be enjoyed as it ages. The leather is then coated with a special oil made from a blend of beef tallow, beeswax, vegetable oil, and other fats. Black and burgundy color panels create a cozy look. A Horween leather label is added to the laces at the top of the eyelets for a special touch. The Dr. Martens logo and the words “MADE IN ENGLAND WITH HORWEEN LEATHER” are printed in gold on the insole for a cool appearance after putting them on and off. The yellow stitching characteristic of Dr. Martens is used, and the brand’s characteristics are also well reflected.
