Cool stuff from the early days

Trust me, I completely get that. And I actually like the look of the non yellow stitching. Iβm 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 βoriginalβ users encounter knee/back problems from wearing them in the pit. All in all, great stuff!GlowGirl said:
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 donβt care as much about advertising the brand πTJ80 said:

good stuff Erica! Iβm sure you had some Docs on too, miss those daysΒ
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.Β0 -
I canβt 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.Β0

I attempted to add the Mono style to my cart (on deep discount right now!! Only $90), but theyβre sold out of what will likely be my size. Weβll see if my local store has them, because I do think theyβre awesome. I live in black eerrthang. π Shoes are almost always the only place Iβll splash color except for when I donβt. πGlowGirl said:

That's so cool!Βrightcoaster said: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
