I haven't decided yet which of the Adventure Time line I will be purchasing in the near future ... it's a tough choice.
Coming from the US, I would say somewhere between probably and definitely. Unfortunately, I watched part of the video and now hoping for memory loss.Am I the only person who remembers this?
Being an x Punk myself I wore them for over 30 years & still buy the odd steel toe cap pair.However my favourite boots are German para boots.I do a lot of long distance walking & find that these are the best boots ever & I usually get a new pair every other year.I much rather them to D.M's.For years I have believed that Dr. Martens (DMs) were worn by beatniks and punks.
Now in my (relatively) early 70’s, I now own 6 pairs. I buy them, mostly off eBay, half a size above my normal shoes and they are amazingly comfortable, sturdy and cope with my bunions with no probs.
I should add that my wife, a tad younger, has 4 pairs of DM boots
Has anyone else suffered shoe regression?
I have a pair of Merrell hikers, bought from George Fisher in Keswick, great boots.I have a pair of Keen and a pair of Merrell hikers that I rotate. Great LW hikers.
I remember it well,if you ever get the chance read thisAm I the only person who remembers this?
Out of snow bound boredom - been looking at DM's. Bloody hell they are expensive nowFor years I have believed that Dr. Martens (DMs) were worn by beatniks and punks.

Yeah Glen, becoming a fashion statement made a big difference in price from when virtually every beat cop in our division wore a highly bulled pair of D.M.s. Nowadays of course most of our local cops are wearing " tactical " type combat style boots which look as if they were polished with a lukewarm Mars bar !Out of snow bound boredom - been looking at DM's. Bloody hell they are expensive now![]()
