Dr. Martens Debuts 2025 Snake-Themed Lunar New Collection
Lunar New Year 2025 officially begins January 29, and luxury footwear brand Dr. Martens is in a celebratory mood with their brand new Year of the Snake collection.
Drawing inspiration from the theme of the year, the capsule features a versatile range of iconic Dr. Martens silhouettes, including the renowned 1460 boot, the 1461 shoe and a leather backpack to round it out. Per the brand, each style is crafted in snakeskin-embossed leather, and features a rich, full-grain finish, and the brand’s signature craftsmanship. Both the 1460 boots and 1461 shoes feature a snake-print backstrap in a bold red color that brings the luck element into the collection. Gold accents and snake charm details finish the silhouettes, with the 1461 shoe celebrating the good fortune of the new year through its eye-catching red outsole.

Aside from this collection, Dr. Martens is off to a strong start to kick off 2025. Earlier this week, the brand debuted three new boot styles equipped with the chunky, blown-out “DMXL” sole that first hit the scene in 2023. Additionally, two new models were introduced into the collection as well, the DMXL 2976 Chelsea ($170), characterized by a front-facing zip-up design and elasticized gusset, and the DMXL 8-Eye ($170), which features a medial side zipper and innovative lacing system.
The brand also announced their elaborate Valentine’s Day collection earlier this week as well. The collection includes two footwear offerings and two accessories, all of which range between $140 to $200. The Caiti boot and Kemsley shoe are the main standouts of this capsule, as they are defined by their leather craftsmanship, leopard prints and pink contrasts. Both boot models are completed with velvet pink bows, and feature a glitter design on the outsole. Similar to the Lunar New Year 2025 collection, the Valentine’s Day assortment comes with two bags that can either be worn as a crossbody style, over-the-shoulder or as a backpack depending on your preferences.
