Doc Martens 

Also known as Doc's and Dr. Martens very well known for having a yellow stitching that bonds the bubbery air cushion sole. This footwear was developed by Dr. Klaus Märtens of Germany. The first Dr. Martens boots in the United Kingdom came out on 1 April, 1960 (hence known as style 1460 and still in production today) with an eight-eyelet, cherry-red, Nappa leather design. Doc's where first worn by working class people, then later adopted by the skinheads and punk rockers in the late 1960's. Goths, new wavers, and hardcore punks wore them in the 80's then they where adopted by the grungers and skankers in the 90's. Today, Doc's have been gaining popularity back by Indie, bohemians, urban twenty-something's, stoners, even college kids.

Doc Martens carry out many functions. They're great for camping out, riding a bike, kicking A**, getting your A** kicked, keeping your feet warm, looking sexy, being a fashion rebel
Her Doc Martens look cute. My Doc Martens got scuffed while I was breaking a fall on my fixie. I went to the independent art gallery and every five people where sporting a pair of Doc Martens. These Doc Marten feel comfy on my feet.

Doc Martens 

A boot formerly worn by working-class English people and later adopted by the punk crowd. In the 90's it surged in popularity eventually leading to it being produced overseas with cheap materials and shoddy construction. Now little more than a fashion statement for young twenty-somethings trying to be cool and "different" despite their ubiquity; a far cry from their working class origins.
Girl 1: Ah man I really want some Doc Martens to show off to show all the guys at work I'm not like other girls.

Girl 2: Nah those boots are for posers, get some Redwings if you wanna be taken seriously.
