The footwear model receives a new update with its premium touches using [suede](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anistone-lo-suede-biker) and a sturdy Goodyear welt. There is also a new detail in place of the usual loop, with an updated bright orange back pull. Notably, the boot infuses AirWair technology in order to maximize its durability whilst delivering comfortable elements as well. Overall, the new 1460 boot silhouette perfectly blends touches from both labels -- there is the classic traditional look from Dr. Martens and fashion progressive sensibilities from BEAMS. The lacing system at the front sees an additional opening at the side with zipper enclosures. The premium boots are finished off with an [air-cushioned sole crafted from rubber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-1460-rain-boots). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 67% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Premium Collaborative Footwear:** Fashion brands can collaborate to produce premium footwear with both classic and progressive sensibilities, incorporating durable materials and innovative technologies. - **Updated Boot Silhouettes:** New versions of classic boot silhouettes can incorporate fresh details, materials, and technologies to appeal to modern consumers. - **Comfortable and Durable Materials:** Footwear brands can prioritize both comfort and durability by incorporating innovative materials and construction methods into their products. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Footwear:** Collaboration between fashion brands can lead to innovative products with both fashion-forward and functional features. - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can leverage collaborations to create new products that combine classic and modern elements, attracting a wider range of consumers. - **Manufacturing:** Incorporating new materials and construction methods can help footwear manufacturers create products that are more comfortable, durable, and innovative than ever before. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vintage Collaborative Rugged Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thisisneverthat-7.md) - [Bold Maximalist Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exoshield-xx01.md) - [Collaborative Stealthy Fall Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanamica-and-dr-martens.md) - [Waterproof Classic Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-rain-boot.md) - [Brand-Honoring Staple Bold Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/14xx.md) - [Reworked Rugged Boot Styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stssy-x-dr-martens-2295-decon.md) - [Hybrid Dynamic Fashion Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-leather-boot.md) - [Avant-Garde Dramatic Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-dmxl-megalace.md) - [Rubberized Weatherproof Boot Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-1460-rain-boots.md)
