Dr. Martens boots, long the uniform of punk and rockabilly, are here wrapped in a Japanese irezumi skin design, as though the leather itself had been tattooed. The pair is offered in US 8 / UK 7 / EU 41, shoes only.
The Piece
This pair of Dr. Martens boots is finished with a skin-style Japanese tattoo design in the irezumi idiom, giving a punk and rockabilly staple the appearance of tattooed skin. The design carries the name Pascal EA Asiana.
Irezumi, the Japanese tradition of full-body tattooing, draws on woodblock-print heroes, dragons, carp and waves, and its imagery has long crossed into rockabilly, punk and street fashion.
