I'm looking through altculture.com, not finding much interesting.

But it makes me think of something I saw in an editorial one time, maybe in True Tunes.

What's so alternative about wearing Doc Martens? They're 100$+ shoes. If you want to be alternative, different from the coopting fashioncorps, wear something cheap.

Of course, I wear 100$+ shoes everyday (currently Naot), but it's not to be alternative. That's okay, right?
