Doc Martens dead punks
Friday, May 25, 2007
Famous U.K. based footware maker
Dr. Martens
has fired the ad agency responsible for the recently unveiled print / poster campaign featuring deceased punks Kurt Cobain, Sid Vicious, Joey Ramone and Joe Strummer. The posters, created by Saatchi & Saatchi London, depicted the iconic personalities as angels wearing the famous boots.
Dr. Martens
is very sorry for any offense that has been caused by the publication of images showing dead rock icons wearing
Dr. Martens
boots, says a statement from the shoemakers.
An earlier article claimed that the images have been cleared for use in the U.K. only, in an arrangement with Corbis (the supplier of the original photographs). The images were created enhanced by photographer Dimitri Daniloff and retoucher Christophe Huet.
KURT COBAIN
JOEY RAMONE

Odd, I thought the Ramones wore Chuck Taylors.
