Dr. Martens Red Pack Coming Soon!
by jobot *** posted on December 22, 2009Dr. Martens have got to be one of the biggest success stories of fashion re-invention as of late. As early as two years ago, the mainstream majorly frowned on the boot company as being abolsutely ‘passe’ and as a staple in the uniform of punks from the 80’s or 90’s grunge kids. With the resurgence of plaid and the brand’s diversifying their usual black, red, or matte green hues to bright PVC splashes of colour helped to welcome them back from the underground – bouncing soles and all! For their latest ‘re-issue’, the boot makers have replaced the usual yellow stitching on the leather and the soles to red and followed suit with the shoe laces. The goth kids are going to go ga ga for them! I wonder if the designers behind this new style know of the ‘unspoken’ code behind different coloured laces in your boots and the message that they give to others who know the code? I seem to remember wearing different coloured laces as being a rather racist statement – let’s just hope for Dr. Marten’s renewed fame that the general media don’t catch wind!
Keep your eyes on the Dr. Martens website to be the first to know when the new 3 and 8-hole Red Pack marches their way into the world.
