Dr. Martens Display Reflects New Brand Image
Dr. Martens wanted to reconnect with a new generation of consumers as well as reach out to a broader audience.
Opolis Design, Portland, OR, created the Original Since campaign, which abandoned the Dr. Martens boot as a symbol of youth rebellion and turned it into a symbol of youth empowerment.

The campaign profiles young, creative opinion leaders, with their birth date scrawled across their image. Above the date are the words “Original Since”. Rather than using professional models, Opolis cast real individuals off the street to add a level of authenticity.
The concept was applied across an array of branding initiatives including a global POS package.
