    good stuff Erica! I’m sure you had some Docs on too, miss those daysΒ 
    πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I tried to do Docs again recently but they hurt my feet πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
    Oh come on! I've had Docs throughout. It was a must that I continued to own a pair. When they started getting "cool again" I didn't know how to react. 🀣
    I still wear Docs. I just can’t jump in them anymore πŸ˜‚
    This is everything! πŸ˜†πŸ˜† I’m shopping around. I’ll give them another whirl. I think my sizing was off on my last try. πŸ€ͺ

    These are the ones I have. They are called Mono because the stitching is black instead of yellow and the tag is gray and black. I liked that they looked a little different. They have them at the Doc Marten store.Β 
    Sacrilege! That's like buying Jordan's without a "Jumpman" or a Rolls Royce without the fancy hood ornament. 😁
    Hah, exactly! πŸ‘†
    Everyone has different tastes. The all black ones sell really well. I bought them because i liked that they were a little different from the ones I used to have. I don’t care as much about advertising the brand 😁
    Trust me, I completely get that. And I actually like the look of the non yellow stitching. I’m just messing around and get the original point made that I quoted (which I thought was funny). So all good in my book, your street cred is still 100%!! Just a fun thread/topic, especially including the factor of β€œoriginal” users encounter knee/back problems from wearing them in the pit. All in all, great stuff!

    I can’t do Docs anymore. I switched to Danner and saw my local door doctor for custom orthotics. My feet feel like they are in heaven now. I suppose the orthotics would work in Docs, but I like the white stitching on the Danner boots better.Β

    I attempted to add the Mono style to my cart (on deep discount right now!! Only $90), but they’re sold out of what will likely be my size. We’ll see if my local store has them, because I do think they’re awesome. I live in black eerrthang. πŸ˜„ Shoes are almost always the only place I’ll splash color except for when I don’t. 😁

    The original point was funny. I get it. The yellow stitching is iconic. All good.Β

    Amazing!!! I need to track down some of those covers. I do see you have the song/show that inspired my handle in there :)

    This threads got great potential. This reminded me of the tape I recorded off the radio of the 4/3/94 Atlanta show. I was living with my grandmother finishing my teaching certification. It was my first live recording. Funny to have it as a Vault release now. I wore that thing out commuting back and forth to class. Good memories all the way around.Β 

    That's so cool!Β

    I think it was blanks and postage. I remember people were really helpful and generous.

    I think "spreading the Jam" was a term back then to share audio/video boots. πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„
