My Doc Martens Collection: A Love Story in Leather

I’ve never been a shoe girl. The only way I would get new shoes is if my mum offered to buy me a new pair. Cause I hated spending my money on shoes. Then, I found a pair of knee high Docs. My husband bought them for me 15 years ago for Christmas. Now, I have 14 pairs of docs and I’m still always looking for more. My holy grail is the museum Doc editions of Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights.
