As a person who lived thru the prime NIN era, I always thought of Doc Martens more as a “Cranberries gals” thing than a “NIN fans” thing.

I don't know what this thread is about, but I still have a standard pair of Doc Martens black boots that are at least 30 years old in my closet. Plus, a brown lower cut pair that look more like hiking boots that at at least 15 years old. Plus, a bunch of other boots that I'm more likely to wear because they are much more comfortable.
