For those in the same position as I am and are in search for a new pair of boots, the Underground x Dr Martens FW 2011 Collection wouldn't be a bad route to go.
The Underground x Dr Martens FW 2011 Collection has the former putting a bit of spin on the latter's classic 1460 boot for the upcoming release. Two models will be available for this series. The first is a simple, black, all-leather high-top that while subtle, looks incredibly badass. The second is the same, except for the fact that it features a strap on the top that's been embedded with a series of studs for more of a punk rock feel. Both styles also feature a zip-up design right in between where the laces lock. Owning a pair may change your mind about walking in the winter.
