[Dr. Martens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pascal-love-letter-boot) unveils a new iteration of its iconic [1460 boot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-1460-rain-boots) silhouette with intricate patchwork detailing across the sides -- the introduction of the 1460 Dragon Embroidered Boots feature a contrasting design. The design team in Camden created this update, adorning the side with dragon motifs in a color palette that highlights yellow, red, and green.

It is then detailed with antique golden eyelets and the tonal theme follows through with a gold sock liner as well. The premium edition of the silhouette retains its [8-eye lacing system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-8eyelet-boot) and the construction of the polished smooth leather across the uppers for a sleek finish and durability. The signature welt stitching is also prominent as a touch of contrasting elements along the bottom.
