This is what people forget. The original British skinhead culture was not the Neo-Nazi football hooligans that are always portrayed today. Being a skinhead was a fashion and cultural statement, following on from the 1960s mods. There was even a sub -genre of gay skinheads. Good times and great gear! A look that was much better than the scruffy beardy weirdy hipsters of today
@@briandyers8981 I agree. My point was that the media categorises all skinheads as violent thugs. I was attempting to put the record straight from my own experience of skinhead mates I had when I was younger. None of them were football hooligans or paki bashers but friendly guys who happened to liked to dress in a particular way.
I love the comments below telling us this and that, Mods rode scooters not skinheads bla bla bla. We are anti Islam so we're racist..... You just know none of them were there in the late seventies. None of them remember seeing a band with black and white musicians for the first time. None of them realise two tone wasn't a racing flag, it was anti racist. And anyone could drive a scooter, the highway code didn't say you needed to wear a parker to drive one! So happy I was there, so happy I was heavily influenced. I am having a rant so I will shut up but before I go, the new Specials Album seems to have all the DNA in tact from the early releases. Political, radical, thought provoking. Hopefully it will wake up some young bands to what you should be singing about.
Bring back? You can get Dr. Martens on their website that are MADE IN ENGLAND all day long. The Asian made ones are for people that don't want to spend $200 for a pair of boots. But the genuine ones are totally available.
My first pair of Docs were great. Bought my second pair many years later.....something was totally off in the fit....discovered the second pair was made in China............never again.
@@wataboutya9310 true its a small England based dept. You can get exclusive custom made though. You paying at least twice as much, but quality comes with a price eh
Send me a new pair probably only got another 2-3 years left in my current pair mind you been in Doc's since i was 11 & in that time (Am almost 50 now) have had 4 pairs so i get about ten years out of a good pair?
First pair of Docs in 1977, black pair, no yellow stitching. Second pair ox blood, yellow stitching. Third pair black, maximum eyelets (can't remember how many), bought in Timpsons 1984 for thirty quid! Well worth the money back then.
Im filipino and I LOVE your músic. I wish someday to a concert but im worry to be beaten in the middle of. I respect all culture and races but I would like to read to others their opinion. Let me know If Im wrong
You have nothing to fear from this skinhead movement, it is anti racist. You would be made very welcome at a concert, especially if you have a skinhead and Doc Martins...👍🏻
I #STANDFORTHING. I 80s I came Mod, what I stand for dancing only like SKA music, shouldn't beat up people for there pair of Dr. Martens. In 80s it was very bog Mod fashion here in Ontario Canada, some place in Ontario Canada still big fashion for Mods. I did have Mods friends, Rude Boys, Rude Girls, Skinheads listen to SKA, I knew Punks too. I am still Mod, Dr. Martens is very comfortable foot wear after when you break in you're Dr. Martens.
I wish that out here in America when you take em to get resoled they do the original classic sole but instead they put on still cool but less cool waffle stomper soles
If China would do just a great job as before it wouldn't be an issue, I have the same problem with Vans, skateboard shoes, they feel great but the glue doesn't hold up. Come up with the cute commercials all you want, but picking up the pace with quality, wuld be a good move .
I don't get this Skinhead Mod love in you see today, back in the early eighties they really hated each other.As soon as the Mods rolled into a seaside town on their scooters the Skinheads would be coming off the trains all ready for a weekend of punch ups.
scootering and northern soul started them to realize they had a lot in common (which had always existed anyway). Also a lot of right wing skinheads in the 70's & 80's made it difficult for them to get on with mods (loving motown/60's soul/ska/bluebeat/jazz - produced by black artists). Now the two cults appreciate each others music and clothing.........so more in common than differences. In the early 80's i ran a scooter club......we had mods, skinheads, punks, rudeboys, just lovers of scooters and any patriot was welcome - but no rascist's.
Keep Doc.'s made in England.I ware RedWings now.Too many Doc.'s are made in different Countries now & don't have the standards carried out the way they're made in England those are resl Doc.'s

Well said and that says it all
@@markwilliams7461 Thanks for your reply to my comment. It is something about which I have strong feelings. Glad I'm not alone!
The Skinhead Culture is Not' a fashion statement or a Whimsical fad..It is an inner Personal identity Culture and Lifestyle.

@@spicecrop SADLY NOT PRODUCED IN THE ORIGINAL WAY FROM THE ORIGINAL AREA , BUT HEY YOU YANKS DON'T UNDERSTAND CULTURE DO YA !
Still "made in Britain"
@HappySpringPerson I think the thickness of the sole is a lot thicker than they used to be
New docs knocked fuck out of u heals sure everyone remembers .
Are these the Original "Made in England" Dr. Marten's? Or are you promoting "made in china for Guess brand" Dr. Marten's? Huge difference.
Absolutely pal.
No comparison. They're pish now.
Made in bangladesh, i was dissapointed and will. Never buy again
I still have my oxblood red boots from back in the days 👌
My Ben Sherman shirts and Doc Martens have seen their last days very sad indeed
14 year old skin here, keep the faith.

My first pair of Docs were great. Bought my second pair many years later.....something was totally off in the fit....discovered the second pair was made in China............never again.
Solovair is the way to go brother!

I think you can still get made in England Doc Martens. However they are about twice the price of the Indian or Chinese made ones.
Yea its a bummer
@@wataboutya9310 true its a small England based dept. You can get exclusive custom made though. You paying at least twice as much, but quality comes with a price eh
As a Rocker hate to admit it but I still like the music of the skin heads.
What do I stand for. Coz me legs ache if I sit down for to long..
