Pleased...but -
First of all, the Zappos Customer Service is simply outstanding. They all were extremely helpful in every regard. The only problem I had was that the shoe color in person seemed darker than pictured on the website. I still like the color, it just happened to be different. All in all a great shoe. I will never buy shoes online unless it is from Zappos.

1460 DM still great shoes -
My husband bought these boots for me for Xmas in '05 and the dark cherry color is nice. I've owned 5 prs of Docs shoes over a 20 year period and they were all made in England. Some Docs are more comfortable than others according to the style. It's just the cut of the shoe to a person's foot. Re endurance factor I've had the oil tanned leather uppers wear out but have never had a problem with the soles. The stiff and smooth leather upper all hold up like iron. I was apprehensive about the China made quality of these boots but I must say they are my most comfortable Docs yet. Truly! I wear them at least 3 days a week for 8-9 hr stretches. They were just a bit stiff in ankles and top of boot initially but now they are my first choice for both walking long distances or standing on concrete all day. (Chinese make everything else these days, why not Docs.) I wear thick socks and have thin wool insoles to keep my feet warm on cold ground. The quality is there for me to recommend these and give them top rating. Zappos is great to buy from, easy return policy and are great in customer service so give them a try and hopefully you too will proclaim the comfort of these 'kicks'.

What happened to my old friend? -
I bought a pair of 14 eyelet Docs back in 1987, when I was young and thought I was cool. I wore them for 20 years off and on. I walked out of Ground Zero on 9/11 and for 9 hours more until I got home. I had to throw them out, with a tear in my eye, because the strain had finally destroyed them. I bought a new pair, hoping to have my foot friend back, only to find that Dr. Martens were no longer made in the UK, rather they had been made in Thailand. These boots LOOK like Docs, but they are made like a $10 Rolex. Where my old Docs still had treading on the sole after 20 years, I can dent the sole of these boots with my finger. What happened to the boots that took me through HS and out of Ground Zero?

1460 Cherry Reds -
The 1460's still look as good as ever. Despite the initial break-in period they hold their stiffness and shape really well. They seem to still be indestructible, just like the older British made docs. Where else can you find cherry red's other than Zappos? Gotta love it!

These boots are awesome. A little rough to break in but after that initial break in they fit like nothing else!

WSClark -
This is a near-perfect boot. It is instantly comfortable and can be worn all day without issue. I would recommend a short break-in, but you can put them on and go.
I first bought a pair of 1460's in the Sixties. Now, forty years later, it is still my favorite shoe. I have six pairs of Docs - three 1460 and three others.
The 1460 Docs are always the first out of the closet. My favorites are my black pair, but I do like the tan ones also. If you need a quality pair of boots, the 1460's are the ones for you.

I have not worn Docs in a while and this was just like "coming home" again! Great quality. Like other Doc's I've had, they do take a few wearings before they feel really comfortable, like your own. So worth it!

A gem in disguise -
These were a gift for my daughter who requested them but she wanted a color (that you don't carry). She was initially disappointed in the black... but now she has decided that the Black was the best way to go. She finds them more versatile for work, school and play. She says they are also quite comfy now that they are broken in. A great shoe for her. Thank you!

Actually, I've been buying this same shoe for my adult son who lives in NYC for years. They hold up well; thus he gets perhaps one pair per year.

The Best -
Dr. Marten's are long lasting, classic, comfortable, and the smartest boot on the market. Our son has worn Dr. Marten's since high school and is still wearing them after finishing college and a master's degree. Don't think he'd ever consider wearing another shoe if he didn't have to dress-up for work. Dr. Marten's are the best!

This is the first time I have ordered through Zappos. I rec'd the item in just a couple days. I was a good experience. I just as soon order through them, than go out shopping.
Thank you.

Nicely surprised -
After hearing some horror stories about the decline in quality of Docs, and after wearing them regularly for the past 15 years, I was hesitant to buy another pair of boots. However, the leather broke in easily with some saddle soap and mink oil, and the fit was spot-on as it used to be. The only complaint I have is that the air wair soles (as mentioned in other reviews) don’t feel quite as bouncy as they once did, hence not giving this boot 5 stars. Still a nice boot, happily, though we will see if they hold up as remarkably long as the made in England variety.

Disappointment -
They look cool but they just don't seem to fit my feet! They are really uncomfortable. They feel too narrow in the toe and instep and too big in the heel. I can't even stick it out long enough to see if they break in.

I bought these for my fiancé for his birthday. When he first started wearing them the top of the boot rubbed his skin raw and then scabbed. He thinks this happened b/c he laced them too tight at the top. But, after about 2 weeks of pain, he says that they are the most comfortable shoe he owns!

Comfortable on the first wearing, beautiful red color, though a little heavy on the feet; I think it is added exercise...very happy with them.

I was very happy with the speed at which my order was sent to me. I had a pair of these I bought back in 1993 and I just wore them out>>>. The leather was stiffer but the comfort is still there when the boots were broke in. I would use Zappos to buy boots again.

Right now, I can only give these boots a comfort factor of 2. Once they break in, and that takes me quite a while, Doc Martens become the best casual boot to wear.

Too bad -
Like a lot of you guys - most of my Doc's were the original UK made and fit great and lasted years. Well, when they finally gave out I tried the Chinese made ones and they are terrible. The leather is stiff and doesn't break in, the fit is different and the soles are not the same. Alas, I've bought my last pair or Doc's and it pisses me off.

Loved These Docs -
I have knee and back problems...I can walk longer, faster & with less pain when I wear these boots. Not only that, they look great. I would gladly buy another pain.

Perfect shoe -
I wear these boots just as they were intended--to work in. Great quality, fit, and wear. I will continue to purchase docs when I need a new pair. Just put an insole in them and they are good to go with very little break in time.

Whoever changed the kind of leather they use should be fired -
I love my Docs, and my old pair was finally really destroyed, so I ordered the same style & size. The other reviewers aren't kidding--sometime between 1998 and now, they've started using leather that's extremely stiff and painful and nearly impossible to break in. I wore mine to a movie, thinking that the walk through the parking lot would be a good short first breaking-in, and wound up with shoes in the same rock-hard condition they started out in, and bleeding calves. Not blisters; skin scraped off the back of my legs. I've been spending some time every night hitting them with a hammer on the floor, which seems to be helping. Otherwise, they're still Docs and still awesome, but don't expect to be able to wear them right out of the box.

American sculptor -
Man!! I love these boots!! They fit great, everyone comments on them (sometimes good, sometimes not), but I am into being different. I can wear them all day and not feel the least bit of foot discomfort. I put gel inserts into all my shoes, but that just makes a great shoe better. I highly suggest getting a pair of these!!

GREAT BOOT -
I find this boot to fit great and feel very lightweight on your feet. I own Red Wing boots and in comparison these are much lighter.
Having worn boots a lot I didn't find any break-in issues.
The pull loop is a great tool for getting the boots on.
I am an 11.5 (US) bought the 11s (UK) and they were too small. The 12s (UK) fit great!
