As Lunar New Year 2025 commences on January 29th, luxury footwear brand Dr. Martens unveils a captivating collection inspired by the Year of the Snake.
The capsule, inspired by the year’s zodiac animal, features iconic Dr. Martens silhouettes, including the 1460 boot, the 1461 shoe, and a leather backpack. Crafted from premium snakeskin-embossed leather, each piece showcases the brand’s signature craftsmanship and rich, full-grain finish.
The 1460 boots and 1461 shoes feature a striking red snake-print backstrap, symbolizing good luck. Gold accents and snake charm details further enhance the collection’s unique aesthetic. The 1461 shoe also boasts a vibrant red outsole, celebrating the auspicious beginnings of the new year.
Beyond this Lunar New Year collection, Dr. Martens has had a strong start to 2025. Earlier this week, the brand introduced three new boot styles featuring the chunky DMXL sole, first seen in 2023. The collection also includes two new models: the DMXL 2976 Chelsea boot with a front zip and elasticated gusset, and the DMXL 8-Eye boot with a medial side zipper and innovative lacing system.
Dr. Martens also unveiled its alluring Valentine’s Day collection earlier this week. This limited-edition collection features two footwear styles – the Caiti boot and the Kemsley shoe – and two versatile accessories, all priced between $140 and $200.
The Caiti boot and Kemsley shoe are showstoppers, boasting luxurious leather craftsmanship, eye-catching leopard prints, and striking pink accents. Both boot styles are adorned with elegant velvet pink bows and feature a touch of sparkle with glitter outsoles.
Like the Lunar New Year collection, the Valentine’s Day assortment includes two convertible bags that can be styled as a crossbody, shoulder bag, or backpack.
