Dr. Martens and Rick Owens are Back With Another Must-Have Boot

In a highly anticipated collaboration, Dr. Martens and the avant-garde maestro Rick Owens have once again joined forces to introduce an edgy brutalist-grunge boot for the Spring/Summer 2024 season. This dynamic partnership, which commenced in 2021, has consistently pushed the boundaries of Dr. Martens’ iconic silhouettes, infusing them with Rick Owens’ distinctive and exaggerated gothic aesthetic. Their latest venture unfolds within the canvas of DMs’ forward-thinking shoe category, 14XX, serving as a testament to the ongoing evolution of their creative synergy.

Unveiled as the 1460 DMXL Megalace boot, this cutting-edge creation marries supple Lunar leather with the unmistakable Rick Owens touch. The design features Owens’ hallmark elements, including an exaggerated lace system, harmonizing seamlessly with Dr. Martens’ revolutionary DMXL sole. The sole’s inflated contours and innovative construction find resonance in the boot’s upper, which exhibits an elongated tongue for a heightened sense of drama and style. The silhouette is artfully secured with a signature pearl megalace pattern, adorned with brushed silver hardware, classic DM heel loop, and meticulous yellow welt stitching, culminating in a harmonious fusion of Owens’ avant-garde aesthetic and Dr. Martens’ timeless craftsmanship. This collaboration not only marks a continuation of their creative journey but also stands as a testament to their commitment to pushing the boundaries of fashion innovation.

This latest dual-design from Dr. Martens x Rick Owens will be available in a full range of adult sizing beginning Thursday, February 8 at drmartens.comrickowens.eu and select partners.
