DOC'S NEW CLOTHES
by Kim Jakobsen To

I havent been wearing Dr. Martens since I was 11. I stole my sisters black pair, sprayed them silver and went to the school disco smiling. Now, after a new ad campaign, the 'design your own pair' competition on their website, and the stage in Camden they sponsor to show new muscial talents;the kids are once again wearing the bouncy boots. With a collaboration with Yohji Yamamoto and a range in different candy colours, you can easy mix them with the colourful rubber leggings from Walter Van Berendonck, or the Gap (red) t-shirt by Giles. Anything you want, except for a flower-patterned skirt.
