Every classic needs a twist. And Dr. Martens instantly recognisable Adrian tassel loafer is stitched with more than one alternative interpretation of the traditional silhouette. Already a cult favourite in cherry red, the loafer is now available more colours than ever with Arcadia rub off leather.
“Our heritage rub-off Arcadia leather has long been a hallmark of Dr. Martens craftsmanship — instantly recognisable for its rich, layered finish and customisable effect. This season, we’ve reimagined it in four colours — Green, Yellow, Blue and Silver — chosen not just for their visual impact but for what they represent within our archive. Applied to the Adrian tassel loafer for the first time, it feels like the perfect collision of old and new — an iconic leather reworked for a loafer that’s in step with what people want to wear now.” Adam Meek, Chief Product Officer, Dr. Martens

Loafers have been part of the Dr. Martens lineup for decades, but the Original Adrian tassel loafer has risen to the top of the list for wearers seeking timeless design with a difference. The loafer combines traditional British footwear construction with classic loafer features — plus DM’s penchant for disruptive design and eye-catching proportions. While traditional loafers are slim fitting and tapered, the Adrian loafer is made with a shoe last for a wider footbed and a bolder silhouette. The apron is also extended, and the protruding moc toe stitching adds a rugged dimension to the upper. Each tassel is handmade and meticulously threaded through the saddle. And the unmistakable foundation of the grooved DMS sole adds an air-cushioned bounce to every step. Each loafer will age uniquely over time as the top layer of colour gradually rubs off to reveal the contrasting base. Leaving you with a classic style that’s truly yours.
