  1. Thanks Eloq!

    Lad Musician lace up boots, roughly $600:

    Dr Martens Drury, $120 USD

    These lasts are so similar that I think the former must have been inspired by the latter. Obviously the Docs lack the creeper sole but you could easily have them re-soled and still be paying around a third of the price.

    Docs available here, although currently mostly out of stock. Pop over to the UK site for more sizes (although the price is higher there):

    any other boots like the Lad Musician? Creeper sole and all. I found some Marc Jacobs, but those aren't really a cheaper alternative.

    I've learned recently through a purchase-soon-to-be-return that Docs are crap quality in the average range. I don't know about the Made in England collection.

  2. "With death so near, Mother must have felt like

    someone on the brink of freedom, ready to start life all over again. No one, no one in

    the world had any right to weep for her. And I, too, felt ready to start life all over

    again. It was as if that great rush of anger had washed me clean, emptied me of hope,

    and, gazing up at the dark sky spangled with its signs and stars, for the first time, the

    first, I laid my heart open to the benign indifference of the universe. To feel it so like

    myself, indeed, so brotherly, made me realize that I’d been happy, and that I was

    happy still. For all to be accomplished, for me to feel less lonely, all that remained to

    hope was that on the day of my execution there should be a huge crowd of spectators

    and that they should greet me with howls of execration."
