Boots made from snake, alligator or crocodile skin are nothing new, but the Dr. Martens Pascal Boot is definitely different. Lately Dr. Martens has been putting some interesting spins on their classic styles.

The Dr. Martens Pascal Boot is made from "[croc-embossed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-croc)" leather. Right now it looks like the only colorway they are making is an all-black boot. The Dr. Martens Pascal Boot are modeled after their [classic "8 Eye" high-cut style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-8eyelet-boot).

**Implications** - I can easily see [rock stars rocking these croc boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chuck-70s-1). Who wouldn't want to walk the streets with boots so sleek and smooth that people would call you "cold blooded?"
