Got an old pair of DM's kicking about?  Outgrown them, or are they just too beat up now? (Not Likely!)  Here's an Instructable that you can use the iconic Dr Marten Air Wair tag for.

Cut a piece of you black webbing roughly 200mm.  The length will depend on your wrist size.

Sewing

Place the DM tag central on the webbing and sew it on, using the thread and needle.  I used black thread, but yellow could be used to give the iconic yellow DM stitching look.

Now cut two pieces of elastic 50-60mm long.  Stitch them on to both ends of webbing.

Cut one bit each of the male and female velcro, about 10mm wide.  Stitch one onto one end of the bracelet and one about 15mm from the other end.  (The 15mm gap can be changed depending of wrist size.

Put the bracelet over your hand, onto your wrist, do up the velcro, and your done.  The elastic should allow it to stretch over your hands, and the velcro hides the elastic and secures the bracelet.
