Known as one of the quintessential fashion pieces of the ’90s, Doc Martens are definitely on trend in ’09. Hate them or love them, we have spotted these ecclectic boots on stylish celebs, such as: Solange, Amber Rose and most recently, Ciara.
Docs came back on the scene via British hipsters (part of the UK “New Rave” movement) in the fall ‘06 and started trickling back on runways in the U.S. earlier this year — with the help of designer Marc Jacobs. Peep some of our Doc Marten picks below. Are you feelin’ the DM trend?
*1. PASCAL RED – $110 // 2. WHITE SOFTY ANGEL WINGS – $150 // 3. YELLOW SMOOTH – $98 // *4. 1460′s in GOLD – $85.60 // 5. CHERRY RED DARCIE’s – $130 // 6. CORSET [BLACK+SILVER] – $150 // *7. BLACK PATENT LAMPER – $115 // 8. WHITE+AQUA FLORAL PRINT – $120
Some things should NOT come back in style.
not for me. but whatever floats their boats
Agree with #1.I’m pretty sure the trendy kids will be all on this though like 00s babies.
LoL.!!! @ #1 yes your soo right.! Somethings should jst stay n the past and not in the future.
Liked them then, like em now, there is something sooo edgy about the look, makes your look more punk and funk. *tru story*
Well Actually I’m a 80′s baby and I like them!! I always liked those boots since back in the day!! You just have to rock them the right way!! Angel & cici Rocked them right to me!!
I had a pair back in elementary school the black with the gold threading classic(the low top) they were the shit i wore them so much my friend hid them under my bed to prevent me from wearing them hahah!!!! anyways their mad heavy..and gave me blisters cuz they were so heavy and trapped a lot of heat but i didnt care…i would cop a pair but thier too heavy might need to get another brand
Nah I’m good, they can keep them. NEXT.
Jodeci boots? I think NOT!
UHHHH these have been on trend for the past THREE YEARS….oh yeah but not in the hip hop community….they are LATE with alot of things.
I fucking hate those boots, so ugly
it’s for european punks!
LOL @ 9 that’s what I was thinking when I saw this post! I had my moms buy me 2 pair and I wore them with thick white scrunchie socks I was trying to look like SWV… those were the days
Those boots ugly as shit and look a hot mess on Ciara, Amber and Solonge. I don’t care what’s in style…it’s all about what looks good, and rockin combat boots with stretch pants and a skirt AIN’T gon get it.
lmao @ 13; word. no thanks on this trend =// these boots is fail. fail fail fail.
not to mention all of the people pictured are people who i think try too hard fashion wise & fail. smh
i say if you like it i love it…
dare to be different
The boots are mad ugly, but the red ones are the best ones. I still wouldn’t buy those things.
lmao @ #9!!!! Thats EXACTLY what they are!! If you are a true 80s baby you know those are some JODECI boots!! LMAO!
I think when you were actually apart of the era when rockin them were cool, you cannot possibly see how this trend should be brought back in 09.
No thanks, I rocked them enough back in the day….
@11 the scrunchy socks and some shorts!! Lol
I had one of those,taught it was hot
Soalnge is so sexy, shes fly 2
Dayum imma an 80sbaby and all…..but never will you see me rockin those boots….c’mon now…now we must be runnin out of ideas because this fashion cycle mess is drivin me crazy……I remeber back in elementry school on how bad I wanted a pair of those H-TOWN KNOCKIN ……..JODECI FOREVER MY LADY BOOTS…LMAO…and how pissed I was when I asked my mom to desperately buy me a pair and she came back with some ole fugly black with the green linin rain boots…I was soo tottally embarassed to rock those ugly azz boots when all my friends had the “it” jodeci boots…
but how ironic it is those particual ugly azz rain boots are instyle today…in various colors and styles……lol….crazy crazy how this world spins.
You must have strong legs to rock these.lamoooooooooooooooooooo.
Ok, so now Amber Rose is a celeb? Since when?
I am not feeling the boots. Sorry !
The price is too high. Like, for what? Anyway, Ciara and Amber look pretty in their pics.
OMG please dont bring these backkkkk…… lol…
This was a trend in the 90′s ….foreal
I had number 5′s in black when i was like six but that was in 1993, lol…. i mean ok it can be ok if they bring em back but it’s too hot for them..
Im just saying
I’m an 80s baby and them boots need to be left right there. In the 80s.
Also, what is with the word “edgy”?! I can’t stand that word.
@20 – Franky Deville – Somebody rockin knockin da boots! Lol.
Aaaahhhh, the 90′s are coming back!!!! Yay!!! I always wanted these shoes when I was in Middle School!
I’ll pass. My feet already look big, don’t need shoes to make them look bigger.
i LOVE docs. mostly black ones though. some people can rock the floral ones. silver is cute. the rest are ugly to me
docs looks great with mini skirts, short dresses, peplums, and shorts. i hate them with everything else. i feel like with docs. you need to show off legs. it’s so sexy
forgot to add that cici makes it look dumb
i LOVE ciara one
Ah yes, the quintessential skinhead accessory. Hate never goes out of style. Ain’t a dayum thing 90′s about Doc Martens. These bytches been around since the dayum late 70′s…
well dang. if 90′s trends are coming back, can 90′s music come back too?! i will tolerate those red ronald mcdonald boots if they just make music like they did in the 90′s again!
@delight the first skinheads weren’t racist. racist people liked the look and stole it but essentially they aren’t racist so wearing them doesn’t mean you’re advocating hate. i mean there are black skinheads as well
SHIT IF I KNEW THESE JOINTS WAS GONNA COME BACK OUT I WOULD HAVE TOLD MY MOM TO SAVE MINES BC IM PRETTY SURE THEY WOULD HAVE STILL BEEN IN GOOD SHAPE BC I DIDN’T HAVE TO WALK ANYWHERE, LOL, AND MY FEET ARE STILL THE SAME SIZE THERE WHERE WHEN I WAS IN ELEMENTARY, I WOULD SO GET ME A PAIR BUT I THINK THEY HAVE TO BE ROCKED RIGHT AND ONE GOOD TIME!!!
wow.. doc martins have bin around FOREVER! i have never liked them.. and i just dont think i ever will like them.. thats one thing u will never see me wearing!
I would argue Gareth Pugh is more to blame for poseur kids (the punk theme is enduring there, there would be no need of their taking inspiration from ANY designer)in England wearing them and here, more urban outfitters or, if you’ve got the loot, opening ceremony than Marc Jacobs, but whatever. They’re still not cool at all precisely because so many trendy women with their ersatz style and their need to be cool insist on wearing them. It is NOT cool to wear them, PERIOD. Anybody who is cool in Docs will be wearing the rattiest pair you’ve ever seen…and that will be because they owned a pair in the nineties before people wanted to puke at the brand. Hardy harrr harr@ all these celebrities who know nothing about style.
@ #31 u are so right
i only recognize them because they skin heads used to rock them hardcore. these boots were their signature style along with their bald heads, which that amber chick is looking like. i thought she was a skin head for a second.
u would never catch me wearing these. plus the all pink is a BIG NO!!!! ciara get lost please!!! do us that one favor.
NAH I WILL PASS….
whateva!!! These shoes are stupid as shit!!! Everytime I see them, I called them “The Chucky Boots” LOL, Child’s Play all day!!!
Now that’s true ’90′s boo!!! Whachu know about that?!
But I’mma say Ciara look is the simplest and cutest of them all! But still stupid boots
@39. I’m dying at your comment about the Chucky boots. LMAOOOOOO!!!
I love them..i had the patent leather ones for some time now, and still wear them..
ce-ce stepped out fresh wit hers….. wuts the shirt she has on?
ugh, HIDEOUS! i hate those shoes… i honestly don’t see the attraction at all.
I like 6 and 7. Something you could wear a lot more than you could with the other colors. Those cost too much money to be buying it in bright pink and end up not having much to wear em with lol
People been wearing them as the ‘in’ fashion shoe since Fall 2006.
a mess THEN; a mess NOW
Docs are the shit!!! I love them!!! Agree with someone above hip-hop is always late. Docs with a short flirty floral dress…HELLZ YEAH!!! MY STYLE INDEED!!!
those are hideous…can you imagine those on a woman with big feet?!?!?!?
I use to rock those so hard back in the day when I was like in grade school damn throw backs.They look cute on everyone I just wont be bringing them back… Solange and Amber are giving

I’m not wit it but if it singles the 90′s are coming back “in” and the 80s are finally going out-then I’m all for it…I swear the 80s have been “in style” longer than they were in the…80s. I hope chockers don’t come back in though, LOL
doc martens are so old school, i see they have been everywhere again, i like the updated looks, i think that a are a part of hip hop so i love em
i WILL BE BUYING THE YELLOW ONES AND a BLACK AND BROWN pAIR FOR WHEN IT STARTS TO snow..i love this TREND!! i MISS MY DOCS…I WISH I KEPT THE ONES FROM MIDDLE SCHOOL!! DAMMIT
YO ARE Y’ALL SERIOUS?
YA BOY DON’T ROCK DOC MARTENS.

Ciara boots on her debit master card $110
Solange boots on her debit mastercard $85
Both of them lookin like sideshow bob
PRiCELESS !
THERE BEAUTFUL JUST NOT THE BOOTS BUT MAYBE I’LL GIVE THE BOOTS A CHANCE
OH AMBER WHO ?
Please do a bit more research. these boots weren’t worn by euro punks. these boots were part of the main wardrobe staple of skin heads and neo-nazi punks. There’s no way in hell I’d wear anything that was ever a part of that. Wake up and stop pushing this crap as fashion before you find white hooded sheets in style too. These celebs are ignorant.
These shoes are so hideous!!!
