Doc Martens are like Chuck Taylors — they’re timeless. The black work-boot style has been a celebrity trend for years, with singers including Olivia Rodrigo, Phoebe Bridgers, Selena Gomez and more sporting the shoes in their streetwear and even red-carpet looks. The platform boots may be a staple piece, but finding Doc Martens sales can be rare. Rather than wait for the prices to drop, Doc Martens dupes give you the look for less, so you can show off the elevated look without having to burn a hole in your wallet.
The classic look usually entails an above-ankle fit with a lace-up combat boot design, but those aren’t the other styles that have taken over social media. You can also find Chelsea boots, platform Mary Janes and Oxford shoes on both stars and influencers alike.
Most of the boots run for $100+ each and even with a sale you’ll most likely still in the high $90 range. Most dupes though can go for as low as $20 and give you that grunge utility feel, while keeping your wallet from shaking its head in disappointment.
Rather than scour the web yourself for quality, reviewer-loved pairs, Billboard Shopping did the research for you and found a few of the best Doc Martens dupes from Chelsea styles to the classic combat boot to add to your rotation and enjoy the look, for less.
