Three leather shoe designs associated with London-based designer Sage Toda-Nation arrived through two collaborations on September 30 and October 1. The releases comprise a Sage Nation x Dr. Martens 1461 Oxford and two shoes from YMC’s ongoing partnership with Grenson; pricing, availability and sales details were not provided in the source report.
London-based designer Sage Toda-Nation had three leather shoe designs released through two collaborations on September 30 and October 1: a Sage Nation x Dr. Martens Oxford, followed by a biker boot and slip-on from YMC’s ongoing partnership with Grenson. The closely timed releases bring his work across his namesake label and YMC into three distinct takes on classic leather footwear.
The first release was a Sage Nation x Dr. Martens 1461 Oxford, launched September 30, according to Highsnobiety’s report. Its double-welt seam runs down the upper. Highsnobiety describes that detail as a nod to the Box Pleat trouser, a signature design associated with Sage Nation. The collaboration gives the familiar 1461 form a specific visual link to Toda-Nation’s clothing work.
On October 1, YMC and Grenson released two more designs through their ongoing collaboration: a biker boot with zigzag stitching and a slip-on shoe with a neat, piped profile. Highsnobiety characterizes the slip-on as reminiscent of Lemaire’s piped loafer, while describing the boot’s detailing as noticeable without making it a hybrid of unrelated styles. Those are the publication’s design assessments, not independently verified product specifications.
Together, the releases make for three shoes in two days, with Toda-Nation’s work spanning two British footwear partnerships. The source report does not provide prices, stockists, materials beyond leather, production quantities or information about whether the shoes remain available.
Three Designs Across Two Partnerships
The launches put Toda-Nation’s design work in three separate shoe forms at once: an Oxford, a biker boot and a slip-on. Rather than relying on one collaboration to define the week, the releases connect his namesake label with Dr. Martens and his work at YMC with Grenson. For readers following the designer or considering the products, the range offers a concise view of how his approach is being applied to established footwear categories.
Highsnobiety’s report praises the shoes’ balance of shape and detailing, and raises comfort as a central concern when buying leather footwear. Those comments are editorial opinion; the material provided does not include wear testing, customer reviews or independent evidence about fit and comfort. Buyers would need product information and in-person or retailer guidance to judge those qualities for themselves.

From Sage Nation to YMC
Toda-Nation is a London-based designer whose work spans Sage Nation, his namesake label, and YMC, also known as You Must Create. The report says he has been building a reputation through both roles, but supplies no further career timeline or independent measure of that reputation. The two collaborations in this release reflect those separate professional connections: Sage Nation with Dr. Martens, and YMC with Grenson.
Highsnobiety describes the YMC–Grenson partnership as ongoing and says earlier releases had offered fresh interpretations of Grenson’s signature footwear. The new pair adds a biker boot and slip-on to that collaboration. The report also identifies the Oxford as a 1461 model and ties its seam detail to Sage Nation’s Box Pleat trouser, providing the clearest stated connection between the shoes and Toda-Nation’s clothing designs.

Prices and Availability Not Listed
The source report confirms the release dates and designs, but does not list prices, retailers, quantities, size ranges or current stock. It also does not provide product specifications beyond the designs’ leather description and the named visual details. Availability may differ by location or change after publication, so readers should check the brands’ official channels or retailers for current information.
Comfort is discussed by Highsnobiety as a broader challenge in leather footwear, but the report does not document a wear test or provide customer feedback on these particular shoes. Claims about comfort, durability or construction quality cannot be confirmed from the supplied material.

Check Brand Listings for Stock
The next practical step for shoppers is to consult Sage Nation, Dr. Martens, YMC and Grenson or their authorized retailers for product pages, pricing and availability. The source material does not announce a future release date, restock, additional collaboration or further details from the brands, so no later milestone is confirmed.
Any updates on stock or specifications would need to come from the brands or retailers. Until then, the confirmed development is limited to the three designs released across the two partnerships on September 30 and October 1.
