Doc Marten Outlet location?
I am traveling to London soon and have a big thing for Doc Martens. I know there is (was?) a Doc Marten factory store in London but I cannot for the life of me find out where it is! I have Googled for it in I don't know how many different ways but simply cannot locate it. Does anyone know where the Doc Marten factory outlet in London is located?Thanks in advance, I appreciate your help.

The ´store locator´ will give you dozens of other retail outlets across London.
Doubt you´ll find a ´Factory Store´, as all genuine Docs are now made overseas.

Not all of them...there's still a few made in Woollaston in Northamptonshire. Not many, but they re-started some production there so they can sell them as 'made in England' as it were.There used to be factory shops in Northampton and Rushden, but I suspect they are long since closed.

BTW, I'd be a bit cautious of the British Boot Company in Camden - went in a couple of months ago to look at a pair of Grinders and was very unimpressed with the owner's manner - heckling, rude about other sellers and told a couple of lasses who came in that everywhere else was selling fakes. He also got the price of the boots I was looking at wrong and then tried to cover up when I called him on it by talking about "different VAT rates". If they've got what you want and you're happy with the price, great, but don't be afraid to walk away.
