On February 1st, millions of people will celebrate the Lunar New Year, the Year of the Tiger. The tiger is a symbol of leadership, respect, and courage. The tiger acts assertively, is energetic, outspoken and takes risks. Dr. Martens is celebrating with a new limited-edition Lunar New Year Collection.

The limited-edition Lunar New Year Collection that landed in January, has taken the 1460 boot and the 1461 shoe has been reworked with tiger stripe camo-inspired uppers and a new pattern created by Dr. Martens in-house team in Camden, London. Both pairs are detailed with hidden botanical graphics and tiger motifs and enhanced with laser etching and flocking details.

This Lunar New Year limited-edition collection comes with a faux gold tiger tooth lace charm, gold eyelets and a popped red sock-liner. As always, each pair is welted on a tough Dr. Martens sole and finished with the classic yellow welt stitching. The 1460 has a popped red outsole, while the 1461 shoes have a classic smoke sole. This collection will give you the fierce confidence of a tiger in any outfit you wear.
