I wore Monkey Boots at school, they used to fall apart really quick so mum got into buying me Docs... Those things were almost indestructible... Wore them from the age of eight, gave my last pair of ten hole steels to my dad when I grew out of them at about thirteen... He wore them in the kitchen...
Back in the early seventies, suedehead time. Twixt skinheads and mod revival boys wore Docs and girls wore Monkey boots*. Still can't reconcile myself to them.
