Doc Martens ads

[Indigo Al]

A crass attempt to cash in on punk, or so tasteless they actually ARE punk?

Crass. Repugnant. Ugly.

Just a few words that come to mind.

Along with stupid, especially on the part of Saatchi & Saatchi.

Doc Martins. AS expensive as ever, but now made in China.

It's a cheap cash-in for punk. I remember doc martins were popular throughout the 80's, but punk has been so filtered & intergrated into mainstream society today that it has lost its original purpose. The doc martins are meaningless.
