Originally taken up by wayward adolescent youth as a symbol of rebellion Doc Martens are firmly on the list of lust.

Solid, indestructible and defiantly special things have definitely moved on from the basic bomber boot of yesteryear.  Now there’s an intriguing elegance and a characterful charm to their no-nonsense appearance.

I want.

 If these weren’t embossed with paisley I would buy them for The Husband for Christmas…with the paisley?..just a bit too feminine? (Never, in a million years thought I’d ever say that about DMs..).

A possible compromise..but once you’ve seen that beige leather edging in the pair above..they look almost..boring! quell horreur!!

I  saw this green pair walking down the street and my eyes followed, instinctively.

And my heart turned the same colour.

Would you ever think these were a pair of Docs?

So lush..

J’adore..

These would be treated with the same care I would give a small, cute, furry animal…
