Dr. Martens – 8 Eye Boot, 3 Eye Gibson Shoe

The wait for some of you is finally over.  Doc Martens wised up and now sell vegan models of the popular 1460 8-Eye boot, and the 3-Eye Gibson shoe.   The shoes are made of “Felix Rub Off” material, which I guess is their proprietary fake leather.  Judging from the pictures they did it right, since they look high quality and emulate the finish of the regular Doc Martens.   I won’t get all sentimental about the brand, but suffice it to say that it brings back the 90′s and the grunge era.  I am too young to remember when they were big in the 80′s punk scene.

Speaking of Punk, you can get either of these shoes at Punk.com.  It’s a great site, I never even heard of it before, but they have a great selection of vegan shoes.

8 Eye Boot in black, 3 Eye Gibson Shoe in cherry or black.


1460 Vegan 8-Eye Boot, and 1461 Vegan 3-Eye Gibson also available at Zappos!

    I’m so stoked they reissued these after many many years of not making vegan Docs.My pair from the 90′s are still wearable but could definitely do with a new sole.My only gripe is the gold eyelets.So ugly!
