Dr. Martens Womens Floral 1460 Boot

I am someone who has been regularly turning my ankle over since a fall back in November 2016. Since then I've got various casts and wobble boards to help strengthen the ankle, but in shoes there is always the susceptibility to another turn. because of this I decided I needed more boots that cover the ankle as walking is one of the pastimes I really enjoy and use to supplement other exercises. As part of this I decided my 24 year old 10 eye DMs were in need of another pair to share some load and so i bought these. Some of the reviews seemed to indicate the quality was lower these days as they aren't all made in england. Lots of stuff isn't made in England nowadays and is fine. These boots fall into that category. The leather was gorgeous on arrival, and the colour was as I remember and very obviously new as it bore no cracks or scuffs. The boots themselves gave me an immediate nostalgia shot back to the 70s and 80s when I was never without a pair for those less formal occasions like football or general nights out. I have been wearing these indoors and outdoors since arrival and they are stiff enough to need breaking in, but these days I find that quite reassuring...much like an album that requires several listens to get into, but then remains with you for life. The fit is so good that even the breaking in process has been no more than a bit uncomfortable around the upper ankle and instep areas, but as each day goes by that lessens and the sheer warmth and comfort grows every step. as I say, I love my walking and have my Karrimor boots for beaches, bridlepaths and rougher terrain, but for cities of cobbles (Prague/Rome etc) and pavements such as an upcoming visit to York, then I think these will be perfect for the comfort the bouncing airwair soles provide. A great product, that looks great and a very good price on Amazon.

Item arrived on time, first of all. As soon as I opened the parcel, and the shoe box, I realized I was in front of the best boots I ever bought in my life. Tried them before buying in a couple of shops, and unfortunately looked like I was in the middle between sizes 7 and 8. Size 7 very short and painful for my feet, size 8 way toooo large. I decided to risk and go for a 7 then... and I was totally right. Leather is of a really good quality, and took not more than 4 days to break in the boots. It expands up to a few mm, and gives you just some standable pain at first. One blister only, on my right heel, and that's all: now they're the most comfortable shoes I ever got. I use them to go to work, have walks around, sometimes I dance also... they're just perfect and comfy, keeping feet warm and dry. I got the boots in brown colour, and I might buy black as well soon. Would totally recommend them to anybody: they fit and look GREAT.

As long as you take the time to break a pair of DM’s in you will be so comfortable for years to come. Excellent thick soles, great style and whilst they are expensive, they are well worth the money because you can wear them for years. This is the 4th pair of DM’s I’ve bought, I totally love them.

These are unisex so the sizes always seem a little large for my size 6 feet. Nothing a good thick pair of boot socks and good lacing won't fix. A few reviews I read said the leather was quite soft but I find it quite stiff and on the first wear they cut into the back of my heel, even through thick socks. I'd highly recommend breaking these in a good bit before doing any serious walking in them. They are very sturdy though, have the classic Dr Marten soles and certainly repelled water on the first wear. You can feel the wax on them and I imagine this will need topping up from time to time to keep the water out.

I bought these as a gift for my boyfriend and needless to say they are a very good durable product from Dr Martens. So far he's worn them to multiple festivals and although they take a while to break in and have caused a few blisters they've cleaned up very well every time. Being wipe clean leather they're very easy to clean and get the mud off, they laces take a bit more work but that is to be expected. They also kept his feet very warm and dry and have a good grip on the bottom in muddy and icy weather. I personally love the colour of them, they stand out a bit more than the black ones but they're not too garish or in your face and they still go with a load of different outfits. That, the low price and them being an easily recognised iconic boot made them a great purchase. Would recommend some thick or comfy socks before they're worn in because apparently they can be quite uncomfortable at first because of the stiff leather.

These classic and iconic boots really live up to their name. Despite being new and the material obviously quite stiff, they are still quite comfortable to wear and are very rugged and durable. They also tend to go well with whatever I am wearing which tends to be fairly dark clothing with grey or black skinny jeans, but suite my look well nonetheless. More to the point the price of these are amazing for the fact that you are getting original and authentic Doc's. In most shoe shops, the price of the classic coloured Doc's never drop below £100 even during sales, so to get a pair for less than £80, I was ecstatic. I am still wearing them in but thoroughly enjoying them. And I recommend getting one size up from what you normally wear so that you have enough room in them for your feet to breath. I usually wear 9-9.5, so got a size 10 and fit perfectly. The seller was very quick to dispatch and they arrived in good time and undamaged. Much recommended.

I love my boots

I've been buying and wearing Dr Martens for about seven years now and I own several pairs, all of which I have bought after trying them on beforehand in a store. Knowing the product well, I know that in general I wear a size 7, despite wearing a size 8 in all other brands of footware. I am a woman and so I would suggest if you can't try on a pair beforehand, perhaps go for a size smaller than you would in a trainer or shoe. A walking boot is a good comparison but these boots are generally on the larger side as they are intended to be unisex. I had been looking for a dark brown pair for a few weeks and was lucky enough to stumble upon this pair on Amazon for less than £80 and although this might seemed like a lot of money to pay for a pair of boots, knowing the product well, I knew it was a good deal. I couldn't find another similar pair for less than £110 brand new on the internet or my more local stores. This pair is a lot softer in the leather than my previous pairs, which leads me to believe they may also be a little less weather resistant, so it's important to use some kind of protector on the leather. Although Docs are somewhat water resistant (fear no puddle) they are not repellent or all weather resistant, so be careful! These boots generally take some time to break in and shape to your foot. Because the leather stretches it's important not to go rambling in them straight away. I recommend wearing them a few times for short periods just to get used to them. It's very common to get blisters between your heel and the top of your foot if you don't break them in properly, and even then, you might still get some rubbing. If you're concerned I recommend sticking large plasters to the inside heel of the shoe for the first week or so. Please don't let this put you off, as once they are comfortable, these are the best brand I have ever owned. Pros for Docs in General *The soles are thick and resistant, after years of walking around in them, there is still much wear left. *The leather stretches *Feet are kept very dry in rain and walking through big puddles *Last for years *Loads of varieties available *Unisex *Shoelaces last (I've not needed to replace a pair yet!) *Can pull on easily with the tag Cons for Docs in General *Can be uncomfortable when new *Patterned pairs can erode quickly (even though the shoe itself is hard wearing) *On the large size for most women *More expensive than other brands
