Any original D.M. fans out there?

I'm talking about the original Doctor Marten boots, before the company flip flopped on their values and sold the company to an evil buyer who employs slave labor.
Doc Marten boots were produced for the working class, English bobbies and factory workers and even posties wore them, they were strong and affordable. Now they've pretty much sold out and gone to hell.
I'm still enjoying my original D.M.s. And when they wear out, there's that choice. To replace or not. Would you?

I got my first pair in 1991, with roses embroidered on them. I still have them, but my brother bought me an Adventure Time pair with Jake the Dog, for my birthday this year.

How many holes? Mine are ten, and cherry red.
@Cavedweller: 12, I think. Real comfy now. I wear them with thick socks and skinny jeans.

@bijouxbroussard: I've instructed my family to bury me in my boots.
@Cavedweller: I understand. These are what the Jake ones look like, I haven't had the nerve to wear them out yet.
