Years ago, I went into a DM store, bought a pair of boots. The girl took my picture to upload onto the DM Facebook. But because my shirt said “skinhead reggae” they never uploaded it. Doc martens has gone way south.
In the early 1970`s we didn't have Docs ..... we wore 18 hole Bombadiers, army boots or steel toe capped work boots ..... still jeans and stay press tho.
with all due respect I think your bomber jackets are boring our gabber bombjacks look so much😝😝🤪🤪if you only look at rotterdam gabber sound of hell or Rotterdam Terror Corps bombjacks it looks much 😛🤪🤪
Shoes are shoes, people of different walks of life and subcultures wear Docs. Punks, Skins, goths, hipsters and several other groups. People have their own style and docs come in all shapes, sizes, colors and patterns.
Athalia lol you have all the best response's, these people swear they own this shoe,these shoes started as working boots!! They weren't made for skinheads or punks! I'm not a hipster,punk,skinhead,NOTHING, I am simply a person who wears what I want and happen to own about 7 pairs of docs, ahhh the freedom of the USA to own what I want,lol
those people are literally saying ,,WE STAND FOR EQUALITY'' and you just flush this ideology in the toilet, with choosing who can a who cannot wear a specific type of clothing. Well done.

Skinheads are the same everywhere, some left, some right and most don't mess with politics of any kind. Skinheads aren't the nice guys, we were thugs , racist or anti racist.
Yeah. CHICAGO. Ever been? It was an awesome place in the 80s. A real hip, but still brass knuckle town. People had a spine then...before these transplants came in with no long term intentions. But had the nerve to cry about Chicago culture, so began the gentrification. By these soft ass, but wealthy, transients.
Modern,, Skinheads,, have no pride and stands for nothing they are not even working class these days. And a loot of them are simply gay. just a fucking fashion show. So what is the point if not? Let the white working class have the OI! back..
I completely love how dr. Martens as a company celebrates its subculture roots…… Most companies these days would distance themselves to be woke. Good on you dr. Martens. I just got a brand new pair of 1490’s. I’ve been punk since the 80’s. My first pair was 1984, I’ve never worn any other docs than the 1490’s with white or yellow laces.
@@coach20348 yeah man. Example, PC "I can't believe they let trump appoint such a conservative douche to the supreme court" Woke, "why the Fuck do 8 people have final say on the law of the land?"
I’m just starting to get into the skinhead style and music and this kid asked if I was a nazi skin him not being a skin himself so how do I let people know that I am there for tolerance and not ignorance?
@@evanricheson1630 tell them that...? doesn't matter how people view you as a skin if you know you're not racist. im an australian skinhead and you wont believe the amount of times ive been compared to romper stomper, but i always clarify who i am and what i believe in. people are usually willing to have a respectful conversation about it in todays age too.
@@daggerfriendlyunless you are or have spent a number of years in the scene then you don't get to speak for us. Stop trying to pretend skins are just misunderstood nice guys, we weren't.
i'm no historian but if skinhead culture and fashion were started by lower class Jamaican immigrants how does Dr. Martens (as for the matter other expensive brands too) truly represent the skinhead culture?
skinhead began in the 60's, which had a very strong class system, much of which was identified by clothing. skinheads, (like teds before them) wore expensive, stylish, cutting edge clothing, to be, a class above, they didnt just wear the same as everyone else. Italian style suits, made of English mohair, the latest airwear boots, high quality hand made british brogues, american style button down shirts. listening to the latest imported music, ska and soul. Later on with punk, the image changed to become an aggressive statement, music styles changed, to raw , basic oi. the politics of the british working classes, interlinked, football hooliganism, its evolved, in many directions. too todays ebay skins, and a worldwide connection. but all are part. Some people get stuck in their little part, but for the 100's of 10000's of skinheads, over the years, its often been the best part of their lives, growing up, with the best music, style, friendships and experiences. that's what the skinhead reunion is about
Yes it's sadly that all these brands have nothing to do with working class anymore. A Fred Perry Polo or a ben sherman for 50£?! Seriously?! No original skinhead could have bought that.
people saved money for months to buy one piece of clothing. my first crombie cost £25. at the time i earned 90p per day, so i saved whatever i could, for that coat, and it made me feel a million dollars wearing it, :)
+Kee Hyun An Because many working class job's involve manual labor. If you are working in a factory floor or something labor intensive you need comfortable, durable, and protective shoes that are going to last a long time. Spending that kind of money on Doc's or Grinder's makes perfect sense because it is much more expensive to constantly have to replace your shoes. Doc's used to be made in England and were very durable and comfortable.
Used to shit myself as a young teen walking on The Gallery in Sheffield on a Saturday if you had hair beyond your collar you'd get punched but still prefer them days lol
Non of these dudes are nazis hopefully but the skinhead culture isn’t to big with black people or anybody of a darker tone anymore which is sad because you don’t see people be proud of what they came from. Like without Jamaican Skins and Rudeboys things like Docs, Flight jackets, and Polo shirts wouldn’t be big with a lot of mainstream culture.
