User Reviews
After 2 years of wearing them in a fast food environment they held up surprisingly well. They do have plastic/rubber padding above the toes and the material did not rip. I also do not have back pain or foot pain from these boots, they also have so much space for your toes as well. Food and liquids fall into the boots everyday but never have seeped through to my socks. After 2 years I do have to point out that the outsole went from rubber to a hard plastic and ended up cracking open the outsole when they bent. Not disappointed by this because these have lasted me much longer and kept me pain free than any other “work shoes” I’ve ever had.
These are bada** for work boots! So comfortable, I was wearing vans for awhile and after switching, the soles on these feel like I'm walking on air. I did replace the insoles though because the original ones are pretty thin. I didn't have issues with the top of the boot rubbing my skin raw, even when my socks weren't high enough the first day I wore them. But I also always leave the first one or two eyelets unlaced.. maybe that helps.Here's the main thing that will help someone thinking of ordering:I sized down based off the other reviews. I'm normally a 7 in docs but I got a 6 in these, and they are the exact same size as my 7's!I'll be back soon to order another pair for when these wear out. Big shout out to the seller for selling these at an affordable price. These are 100 or more everywhere else. So thanks!
These boots fit really well with no breaking in period for me. I wear a size 8 women’s shoe or a size 6 1/2 boys. I’ve previously purchased Dr. Martens in a size 7mens/8womens but they seemed a bit on the large side. So for this pair I purchased a size 6mens/7womens and they fit perfect. I don’t have skinny feet...my foot is regular to maybe a tad bit wide and I had no discomfort. Also the toe box on this shoe isn’t narrow so that helps. The shoe feels lighter than other Dr. Martens I have now. They look really nice with capri sweats that I wear at work as well as ankle jeans.
I wear 6.5 or 7 women. The size 7 was about a size big on me.i did order the size 6.. waiting on them. So nice boots
Switching over from a life long wearer of converse, I wore these straight out of the box to work. 4 hours in, great. 6 hours later, I was dying. I had no idea that docs need to be broken in in small intervals over the course of several days. Thick socks are a must for the first few days. I spend 8 to 10 hours a day on my feet on concrete floors, these are fantastic. Comfortable, fits very well, and is improving my terrible posture. Oddly enough, I have no back pain as I usually would after work. And they look amazing! Also, they were cheaper here than the doc website so definite plus on pricing. Just remember if its your first pair of doc martens, its going to be a rough breaking in process. But well worth it. I tried sliding on a wet floor, couldnt even budge. Would definitely recommend for any job.
These boots exceeded my expectations. So comfortable and cute. I definitely recommend
Fits as expected. Use for work and on my feet moving constantly. Comfortable enough. Durable. I did spray it with some scotch guard to repel water & dirt. Helped a lot during raining season. Never go wrong with docs.
Homosexual stereotypes aside, I am shocked at how many compliments I’ve received on these boots. It’s starting to get cold out - and my old Chukka boots were falling apart. These were really an impulse purchase to stave off the cold weather. For that, they’re working quite well. My feet stay warm, they’re more comfortable than my old Chukkas, and are fairly simple to keep clean.I’ve never been complimented on my footwear before. In the two weeks I’ve been wearing these, I’ve had four separate compliments on them - including that gem of an endorsement in the headline. Here’s a quick summary of the others:“Nice Docs, man. I’ve moved over to them for all my wear needs. Are they comfortable?”“I really like those boots.”“I think I need to get new boots, those look great”I thought all of this was pretty odd. I’ve never noticed or felt compelled to comment on another’s footwear. Somehow, in the span of two weeks, I’ve gotten what I think are a lifetime of comments and observations from four gentlemen who have an eye for quality footwear.
