From bold loafers to throwback sneakers, these fresh releases are made to turn heads. Whether you're into timeless classics or 80s nostalgia, there's a pair here calling your name. Let's check out what's hot right now. Dr. Martens Adrian Tassel Loafers Dr. Martens is bringing a bold new energy to one of its most iconic silhouettes. The Adrian Tassel Loafer, first released in the 1980s, returns this season in a standout Cherry Red Arcadia colourway. Known for its mix of smart tailoring and rebellious spirit, this loafer blends classic British craftsmanship with an updated twist that suits modern city life. Made with high-shine Arcadia leather, the shoe starts off with a deep, glossy finish that gradually reveals a rich cherry red base as it ages. The contrast becomes more visible with every wear, giving each pair its own character. Decorative tassels and the signature moc-toe stitching complete the look, offering both polish and personality in one versatile design. While it remains rooted in Dr. Martens' English heritage, the Adrian Loafer feels just as at home wherever you are. Its easy slip-on style, durable build and vintage-inspired charm make it a go-to option for anyone who moves through their day with confidence and style. Whether paired with oversized trousers or a structured skirt, this is a shoe made for self-expression. Shop the Adrian Cherry Red Arcadia Tassel Loafer today – and all iterations of the staple silhouette – starting at US$150 (~RM699) online and in Dr. Martens retail stores. Nike Dunk Low 'Stranger Things' Nike is teaming up with Netflix's 'Stranger Things' once again for a new Dunk Low collection, just in time for the show's final season. First released in 2019, the collab returns with two new pairs inspired by the show's 80s vibe. Since Season 5 is set in 1987, the classic Dunk is a fitting choice, mixing retro design with elements from the Stranger Things world. The first colourway, Phantom and Midnight Navy, has already surfaced. It features cracked leather uppers, a yellowed midsole for a worn-in feel, and flipped branding that nods to The Upside Down. Details like the 'Nike 1987' badge on the collar, upside-down tongue tag, and Stranger Things co-branded insoles bring the theme to life. The finish is intentionally raw and distressed, creating a look that feels lifted straight out of Hawkins. A second version in Black and Speed Red is also on the way, though images have yet to be released. Both pairs are designed with fans and collectors in mind, with retro touches that match the show's timeline and a sense of storytelling built into every layer. From the burn-away tongue detail to the scuffed sole, this is a drop that pays tribute to one of Netflix's most iconic series. The Stranger Things x Nike Dunk Low collection will retail for US$155 (~RM729) and will be available Holiday 2025 on and at selected retailers, both in-store and online.

Dr. Martens Adrian Loafer Is Made to Move in the Concrete Jungle
So fresh and full of finesse, that's the New York City style scene. Where prints and patterns run wild and shoes and silhouettes pack nearly as much personality as their owners – if not more – and no one blinks an eye because that's the way of the concrete jungle. There's no room to judge your neighbor for their fashion tastes. There's only space to express yourself freely through style. New Yorkers and even the transplants they love to hate – and rightfully so – deserve threads that match their energy and feets that keep up with them from borough to borough. Perhaps that's why the city's booked, busy and best-dressed take to suave yet sensible silhouettes like the Dr. Martens Adrian Tassel Loafers, because they don't cramp either their lifestyle or style: they complement it. Dr. Martens signature loafer silhouette may not seem like the perfect fit for a city-certified 'fit. But that's the thing about NYC, there are no rules and no limits to style or self-expression. Any average New Yorker can rock the classic shoe style, now available in a Cherry Red Arcadia colorway, to the train or to the latest IYKYK Lower East Side spot where they can loiter, catch a vibe, without ever looking out of place while always looking like themselves. These DM mainstays are designed with the everyday city slicker in mind, whether they walk on the wild side, style-wise, or keep it casual but cute, not wanting to do too much but just enough. For every native New Yorker and their besties, what's 'a lot' and 'what's not' looks different, though there's no right or wrong answer. Both classic camo jeans with a striped mohair sweater or a pleated skirt with a preppy polo, pair well with the staple shoe, offering that effortless off-duty model vibe even when you're on the clock. This iteration of the Adrian Tassel Loafer can take any look to the next level – from a crisp white cami and carpenter shorts to a jean jacket and oversized chino shorts – thanks to the Arcadia leather that subtly fades away as you wear the loafers to reveal a contrasting, bold cherry red base color. One that simultaneously appears in the shoe's tassels, apron and moc-toe. And just like how no two true NYC style savants bring the same flair to their fly, no two pairs of the Adrian Tassel Loafers are quite alike either – with the deep red leather hue emerging more and more as you wear the shoe. Despite this new twist to DM's iconic design arriving this year, the loafer dates back to the 80s, when the British brand first released the disruptive yet distinctive silhouette. Since then, Dr. Martens has toyed with the shoe style, introducing new iterations like the Adrian Bex Smooth Leather – a platformed alternative – and the Adrian Yellow Stitch Smooth Leather – for the ones that like to play it safe while still serving a look. Although Dr. Martens hails from a cozy county in England, the Adrian Tassel Loafers leave their mark all the way across the pond in NYC – into the closets of those who make the city their catwalk – even when it's just their everyday. Shop the Adrian Cherry Red Arcadia Tassel Loafer today – and all iterations of the staple silhouette – starting at $150 USD online at and in Dr. Martens retail stores.
