You know the drill, It’s time to get obsessed.
Guess what. Dr. Martens just collabed with Rick Owens again. You know the drill, it’s time to get obsessed. The two brands have been collaborating since 2021 where throughout the years they have explored the possibilities of Dr. Martens silhouettes through a Rick Owens lens. This most recent collab, The 1460 DMXL Megalace boot, is actually the first of Dr. Martens new 14XX line. At the heart of it lies the new DMXL sole, which is a true testament to Dr. Martens’ commitment to innovation. Crafted from a lightweight EVA compound base with resilient PVC pods, the inflated sole offers an exaggerated interpretation of the brand’s classic construction, redefining deviance in footwear design – and a cute connection to Rick Owens inflatable boots ;).
The 1460 DMXL Megalace boot stands as the ultimate Dr. Martens x Rick Owens shoe. Featuring inflated contours mirrored in the boot’s upper and extended tongue, the design pushes the boundaries of traditional boot construction. Crafted from supple Lunar Leather, the boot juxtaposes structure with unexpected flexibility, while signature pearl megalace pattern and brushed silver hardware add that extra touch of lux. With the unmistakable yellow welt stitching and Dr. Martens script, the boot seamlessly embodies the heritage of both brands.
Adding an extra dimension to the collab is London-based producer, performer, DJ, and face of the collab: Sissy Misfit. Renowned for her genre-defying music and conceptual performances, Misfit’s unique style complements the avant-garde spirit of Dr. Martens x Rick Owens. Basically, the 1460 DMXL is the new total IT-boot of the season. So get it while you can, because this is a drop you can’t miss.
