Doc Martens have definatly proved that can pass the test of time. My dad used to wear them back in the 70's and here I am in 2009 with almost the exact same design on my feet. I own 2 pairs of classic boots - in black and oxblood red, as well as another 2 older pairs I wore throughout high school and some orange ones. The reason I love Docs so much is because they look cool! This cannot be denied, they are the coolest boots ever, and no matter what anyone else says its important to be cool! They're also so hardwearing (the amount of things I have fallen into or kicked without so much as a scuff!) and are extremely versitale - they can be worn with skirts, pants, shorts ...  Read the complete review

I also have a pair of Doc Martins actually I have 2 one pair of lace ups and another pair of navy blue 8 eyelet boots. I must say they are the best shoes I have ever had. I prefer to only wear Leather shoes as I don't like having smelly trainers that get dirty easily. the docs go with everything in my wardrobe the 8 eyelet boots are the most versitile as you can match them with Jeans and shirt or tee or denim shorts and tee for a more funky look the lace up pair I match up with shirt and tie for work. Unlike trainers they always look good year round they are easy to clean and feet don't get hot and smelly after a long walk. They come in a range of ...  Read the complete review

Doc Marten boots are the only footwear for me. Just like Walli10 I am a girl with size 9 feet and I share the frustration of trying to find shoes that fit. My problem is compounded by a dislike of "fancy" shoes and shoes with heels (i'm 6 foot as it is). Ever since I was about 10 I have wanted a pair but my school wouldn't let you wear boots so I had to wait. When I left to go to college I jumped out and bought my first pair. I got the classic 1460 (1st April 1960 was the day they were first produced) 8 eye boots in smooth black. Ah I can remember the first time I clomped about in them after years of boring shoes and trainers. It was great. I ...  Read the complete review

Cast your mind back. It's the early nineties and you're at a festival watching The Levellers, with dreadlocks and combat shorts and a vest on. What are you wearing on your feet? Yes, DM boots, with hiking socks. OR, cast your mind back to a different past. It's the early nineties, and you're watching Pearl Jam. You have long hair but it's not dreaded. You are still wearing combat shorts OR stone-washed blue jeans with rips at the knees, with a T-shirt. But you are still wearing DM boots with hiking socks. That's not to say that Doc Martens have only been around for that long. In fact, they are fifty odd years old, the ...  Read the complete review
