I don't know if anyone has seen these yet...they were leaked by an employee at the ad agency that created them and were set to run in print in the UK. Due to an explosion of disgust, they won't be ran, and Airware has terminated the contract with Saatchi & Saatchi. The ads feature Kurt Cobain, Sid Vicious, Joey Ramone and Joe Strummer wearing the boots in heaven.

doc martins weigh a ton, which is probably why cobain wore converse all-stars.

True but for long hard working days they are comfortable, If I am not wearing a pair of Italian loafers I am wearing my Doc steel toes..

Mmmmm, Doc Martins.

Doesn't offend me, although I am not a fan of any of those people.

I only wear Doc Marten steel toes. I'm really sad though, I think they discontinued my model: 2225.

The ads don't offend me in the least, and I love my Docs.
