From platform sandals to lace-up boots, festival season is a the perfect time to step your shoe game up, and Doc Martens has you covered.

Because there’s usually a lot of ground to cover at music festivals, comfortable shoes are essential. Whether you’re attending Coachella, Lollapalooza or smaller music festivals and concerts this year, having a comfortable shoe doesn’t mean sacrificing your style aesthetic.

With just a couple of weeks until Coachella and Stagecoach officially take over Indio, Calif., two months until Bonnaroo and four months until fans are rocking out at Chicago’s Grant Park for Lollapalooza 2024, everyone needs a sturdy and durable pair of shoes to take the biggest music festivals of  the year.

Luckily, Dr. Martens is turning festival season into sandal season and boot season with designs that will make you stand out and stand a little taller. And they’re suitable beyond your music festival needs. Doc Martens are great for casual, everyday wear, whether you’re heading to work, school, etc.

To make sure that you get on the right foot, we’ve rounded up a selection of Doc Martens platforms and boots — and a must-have accessory — to take to music festivals and concerts.

From new arrivals to bestsellers and a classic that we can’t get enough of, see below for a list of Doc Marten statement sandals and boots that are perfectly designed for festival season and available in men’s and women’s sizes.
