Wouldn't trade them for the world
My Doc Martens are everything I aspire to be. They're strong yet beautiful. Sturdy yet flexible. Powerful yet intelligent. They easily adapt but make a statement of individuality. I wouldn't trade them for the world. I love my Docs.

The Irish connection
I didn't wear Doc Martens until I moved to Ireland, and besides being darn comfortable and perfect for Irish weather, my knee pain disappeared (sports injury) as I was wearing great (and stylish!) supportive shoes.

At least I didn't dress like my parents.
Docs signified teen angst and rebellion for me and all the other kids growing up in suburbia. When I started wearing them my parents didn't get it. For girls Docs showed the world that for the first time "cool" meant more to you than "pretty" and you were developing your own sense of style. True, all your friends wore the same shoes so your style wasn't necessarily original, but it was getting there. At least I didn't dress like my parents.
