Yep they're shoes -
While I know this from past orders, the shoes are not as comfortable as people would have you believe. IN addition to being heavy the do not bend well and if you squat often they have a tendency of having the sole crack. I like these shoes; however, because I know I can get a solid year out of them as a server, in the wet oily environment of the kitchen and then look good out on the floor. I know they are more water-resistant then some of the more popular "shoes for crews" and work well with a steel toe I can trust. However they are about a half size smaller then reported, and can be quite a bear on ones legs.

I'm on my feet 8 hours a day, working in a hazardous environment, Dr. Martens are by far the most durable and comfortable steel toes I've tried, not to mention their cool looks and quality construction. I also have a pair of the DM steel toe Grizzly's, which seem to size a bit more appropriately. Because I wear two pairs of thick socks with my work boots, I buy them a size larger than my normal shoes, but I had to buy these a full size larger than even my other DM's to achieve the same fit. A good set of insoles would be a welcome accessory for any of Doc's boots, as the standard ones are a little on the hard side. I've beat the living Hell out of one pair for 6 months straight, and despite some deep cuts in the leather, they are showing no signs of wear significant enough to compromise the protective integrity of the shoes.

Great “shoe”.
I purchased a pair of these things just over a year ago. My very first pair of Docs. My mother had always told me that Docs outlast anything else she has owned, so I finally took her up on it. That was a major selling point for me as I tend to completely destroy whatever is on my feet. I don’t know how or why. Anyhow, these things hurt my feet like crazy for about a week. Now they're the most comfortable thing I own. They have held up quite well for me. They don’t look very pretty anymore and I have some wear on the soles, but still my first choice when going anywhere. They are a heavy shoe, yes, but just wear them for a few days and you forget all about it. I’ll gladly wear these walking around Detroit over my Adidas. I now own 3 pairs of Docs and am back on Zappos to order another pair.

Pretty decent if you need to wear steel toes -
I got these because I needed shoes I could wear with khakis but still needed the safety toes. Overall, I think they are decent - no more or less comfortable than other safety shoes/boots - but at least these look cool. I wouldn't want to live in them or walk too much though. They are heavy and inflexible but aren't all work shoes like that?
Additional Brand Information
One of the most respected and well-know icons in the world, Dr. Martens' boots, shoes, work shoes, and sandals continue to set the standard for durability, comfort and fashion. Dr. Martens's trademark look and quality construction has been recognized world-wide since 1960.
Where the classic 1460 style was being used by mailmen, union workers, and factory workers, it soon became popular among the masses. The 1460 continues to thrive, symbolizing individualism, originality, and taps into a individual's unique style who's willing to make that bold statement.
Dr. Martens doesn't think of itself as a "shoe" brand, but rather a way of thinking, a self-expression if you must. Popularly known as Doc Martens, they allow you to feel free to rock your grunge shorts, spike up your hair to the heavens, showoff your body art, whatever floats your boat. So whether you call them Dr. Martens, Doc Martens or just Docs there are no limits to your creativity.

Shoe review -
I bought the shoe cause I disliked the high top shoe that restrain your ankle. After I received the shoes and wore them for 10 days straight, I noticed that there was a pressure point in my left shoe in the center of my foot. It was like having a toothpick in there. Very uncomfy.
I would've noticed the comfort level if I tried them on at Boot World. However, the shoes were more expensive. Something to consider next time though.

Strong, sturdy… and maybe a little cute -
Probably the most solid pair of shoes I own, these feel indestructible and are holding up well. They look good and are comfortable to be standing in. My only surprise was how heavy these are for such a small shoe. If you are going to be doing a lot of walking or any running, this is not the shoe for you.

Good shoe -
Nice heavy duty, well made construction shoe. Little tougher to break in and narrower than other Doc Martens that I've bought in the past, but all in all, happy with the purchase and would buy them again.

Great shoe -
At first I was worried about buying shoes online. I am very picky when it comes to my shoes, but I went with a great brand. And everything was fine. I would definitely buy these shoes again. They work great for work and weren't really all that expensive. Good buy, definitely!!!

Dr. Martens 7A12 Series -
I work in Production and as a Stagehand, so I wear steel toes all the time. Like most of the others have said about the shoes, they’re great overall. The fit, comfort, the style adds class to them, etc. I've bought 2 pair & plan to buy another in the near future. I've also purchased the "Caterpillar - Pursuit Steel Toe" shoes. If the "Dock Martins 7A12 Series" had better traction on the bottom, like those, they'd be perfect all around in my opinion. They get very slippery on the bottom in wet conditions & in dry when trying to push heavy road cases or rigging up above, & etc. they slide too easily. That's the only downfall I've noticed in the 2 years I've worn them.

Good shoe but runs large -
I own three pair of Docs and did not think twice about purchasing this shoe for my steel-toe choice. Unfortunately, this shoe is too wide in the heel for my narrow feet. If you have narrow feet, opt for a different style.

Look and Purpose all in one -
Being a woman working at a factory, it is not easy to find decent looking shoes. I have a job on my feet all day and need shoes that won't make my feet hurt by lunchtime. This shoe leaves me with no pain at the end of the day and they make me look good too.

Satisfied -
I purchased my first pair of the steel toe Dr. Martens and am very satisfied with them. The overall weight of the shoe is hard to get used to and also the color from one to the other was slightly different. Great shoes and I hope they last a long time.
