Glow-In-The-Dark Bones

Doc Marten Releases ‘The Skelly' Combat Boot

Everyone’s favorite combat boot brand, Doc Marten, has come out with a new shoe that is bad to the bone (in quite a literal sense). Appropriately named, ‘The Skelly’ boot has an anatomical theme going on, with bones depicting legs and feet on its surface.

Although these shoes seem dark and ominous, they actually light up! Yes, that’s right, they are glow in the dark.

For all of you glam grunge fans, you can thank me for this fantastic find later.
