Theses are REALLY slick looking! I love these. This just happens to be one of my favorite Doc styles! If you're looking for extreme comfort, then Docs aren't for you (unless you buy insoles).

Not a safety shoe; not enough support mid-sole. I've been wearing mine about six or eight months now. Not long after getting them, I realized that they weren't really great for working on your feet on concrete all day. They're great for walking, office stuff, etc., but not if you work on your feet. The soles are too flexible. The uppers stretched out pretty quick and insoles bought me a few more months. I'll be going back to CATs for work.

Best safety shoes ever. I’ve been wearing these shoes for 2 years. I was looking for a new pair, and can't find them in Ontario, Canada at the moment. I had mine refurbished and they look like new although I still want another pair.

Slightly umcomfortable Working in retail I'm constantly on my feet. I originally had an older pair of doc's which I was very happy with. Stepping up the notch from my original pair I went with these cause of the steel feature for extra ruggedness. The shoes look fantastic, however tended to hurt my heels and all around feet. I now only wear these for when I go out, opposed to everyday work. If you're looking for something more comfortable i suggest you get the 1A08 series shoes.

I've worn Doc Martens all my life. I was born with ankle problems and wore the 10 hole boot's all my childhood. My ankle's are fine now but I still wear the steal toe shoes every day to work. On greasy oily floors they are awsome. Truly a non-slip shoe. The hiking style tread type proved to become a little hard on the feet after wear, but the regular original sole is still a great wearing shoe. Don't be put off by the initial tightness, without this there would not be any support once broken in. Then they fit like a catcher's glove.
