I'm so happy that Dr Martens is making vegan shoes and boots! I haven't worn Dr Martens for many years, but was inspired to buy these boots. So far, they seem really comfortable and well made. I do wish they were more red - the color is almost brown. But I'm really happy I bought them, and hope that Dr. Martens will expand their vegan line so I can get a pair in another color.

I have always liked the style of Doc Martens 8-eye boots and have over the years had several pairs. I would have to say, whether you are a vegan or not, the vegan boots are just better. The synthetic leather is softer than the real leather that it uses on its regular boots and shoes. The boots are easier to put on and take off and they are more flexible and more comfortable. That no animal product is used in their manufacture makes them just that much better.

Purchased these boots for my son. They're terrific looking and extremely comfortable. He loves them!

Great boots! I had to triple check that they were vegan because the quality is so far above what you see in most vegan boots. They're just as comfy as I remember non-vegan Docs from the 1990s. I wear them everywhere, and they still feel good after 4-5 miles. Best purchase ever.

Material looks okay at first and was definitely cherry red, almost purple, but creased immediately. Foot box fit true to size but ankle/upper is super wide with lots of overlap, making these unwearable laced up (I think my ankles are "normal" sized).

I couldn't ask for a more perfect boot. I have never owned a pair of Dr. Martens but these are very comfortable. They also came true to size. I wear an 11 in most shoes like Toms and skate shoes and I wear a 10 in converse Chuck Taylor's. I bought a size 11 and I have a little room to breathe with an exquisite fit. Pick these up!

These are awesome! They are the most comfortable boots that I have worn. The non leather is so much more supple and comfortable. Cruelty free! Who can beat that? I hope to order the brown pair too! And Zappos is the best! I would buy everything from them if I could.

While I was proud to find that Dr. Martens makes a vegan boot, I wasn't so happy with the overall comfort. I gave them a month, knowing that docs typically need a long break in period, but found that the front of the soul was breaking in, contrary to the heel. I didn't realize initially, but this changed my entire posture and my lower back started to hurt. They would be great if the heel wasn't so hard.

Pretty comfy working boot, but does require an extra insole or cushion for jobs that require lots of standing. I work as a bartender and am on my feet for long hours. They are a little heavy, but they are very durable. Give them a few days to soften up and break in. Extremely fine construction. Just what I'd expect from the maker. Form and function!

As a longtime lover and wearer of Docs who has gone vegan, I thought beating the crap out of my old 'pregan' 8 hole (since age 14, almost 16 years now) and 20 hole (age 19) pairs was all I could do - till they unleashed the new vegan styles! It's been ages since I had a new pair, but I do think the soles/footbed are a bit stiffer/harder than my old ones, but a bit of break-in should be no problem. The veg leather of the cherry is a lovely blood-brown color and they're soft, but no cracks; we'll see how they hold up to scuffs. Love them so much, they might end up as wedding shoes; who knows! Wore them out to the city over the weekend and was warm, comfy and got lots of compliments. I'm a 5.5 and got a UK 3. Perfect!

Fantastic. Beautiful boots. Solid, durable material. I've gotten several compliments from strangers while wearing them. The color is very appealing in its subtly. Overall, a classic boot. And it's vegan! Here's to hoping that Dr. Martens exponentially expands their vegan line of shoes. How awesome would it be get some of their other shoes in a vegan version?!
