1976 for me

 

[Dirty Harry]

Black and about 78/79, I was just a skinny kid and looked like a golf club from the side.

Brown, yellow laces around the time of punk.

They seem to be extraordinarily expensive nowadays.

Mine were 14 hole Oxblood in 78. I bought black 16 hole docs in 80. Had several pairs.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

One of the girls at our place has a pair of olive green boots and a pair of purple boots, they do look smart. Her mum has a yellow pair......
