>>279602thank you. you're one of the good ones as well, talking from an aboriginal perspective.
>>279604kink boots were what punks called them in the uk and here, some aroud the late 80s and early 90s the uk started calling them dm boots, as first and second wave punk died. the term kinky boots remained here untill about the late 2010s, when the started simply calling them "docs".
and yes, it's funny how it's been completely commercialised now. when my father was 30, a pair of doc martens would cost the equivalent of 2 hours minimum wage, now they cost 14, and they made in india now. the "revolution" is dead. it's just a bunch of rich kids pretending to be working class, while the working class pretends to be rich. the funniest part is that tin pot commies youths buy into it too.
