Rick Owens and Dr. Martens reunite with a collection built around height, tension, and a distinct sense of construction.

Summary
- The collaboration reworks Dr. Martens’ icons through Rick Owens’ sculptural and industrial aesthetic.
- Inflated DMXL soles, exaggerated lacing, and textured black leathers define the new silhouettes.
- The limited release arrives October 16 through both brands and select global retailers.
Rick Owens’ latest partnership with Dr. Martens continues their exploration of structure and shadow. The new collection extends from their earlier work but shifts the focus toward balance and engineering.
Each style rests on Dr. Martens’ DMXL sole, an inflated platform made from EVA and PVC that creates both lift and density. The uppers come in Lunar and Republic leather, materials chosen for their texture and restraint. In place of embellishment, the boots rely on construction and proportion to define their shape.




Heavy laces trace across the surface like framework. On the 1460 Megalace, wide pearl laces intersect the front in measured lines, while the taller 1860 Pentalace stretches the same rhythm upward. A steel-toe version adds a colder utility with grey wraparound laces and a sharper outline.


Attention sits in the smallest choices: the extended tongue, the open-grain finish, and the familiar yellow stitching that keeps a quiet link to Dr. Martens’ roots in workwear and punk. Nothing feels ornamental; everything functions within a clear geometry that speaks to both brands’ sensibilities.
The collection releases October 16 through Rick Owens, Dr. Martens, and select global retailers, produced in limited quantities.
