JDB's Boots.

Another pointless and random thread from me!

Well i've been watching the videos from Generation Terrorists up to The Holy Bible and JDB is always wearing black boots. Just wondering if anyone knew what boots they were? They look like Doc Martens but its a random guess. Any help is appreciated

I would contribute something useful, but I can't hear anything in my head apart from "Sexy boots! Get on your boots! Yeah... Foxy boots!"

Sorry. Probably DMs knowing James' taste, though I don't know for certain.

Ah, so that's where James got the Na-na-nahs from.

Yep Doc Martens. James did say in an interview that he had bought a pair one size too big on purpose! He's gone back to wearing them (A new pair obviously) after years of wearing trainers.

James didn't JUST wear that one type of boot during that time though. sometimes he wore ones with yellow stitching (more Doc Martens) and sometimes ones with stitching across the toes which i dont think are doc martens at all...?
i miss his big bad boots....

Hahaha, Harri, I like your comment, very indeed, but I hate that U2 song. James boots are Doc Martens, sure.

Yep, these and these, but mostly the ones I posted earlier are the ones he wears lately (I prefer the newer pair, personally, I like the solid black... cheaper too)
