As usual, Zappos is unbelievable, I ordered the boots late on 4/29 and they were at my home on 4/30 in the afternoon. I have owned Dr. Marten's for over 20 years, and I am very pleased with the moisture managing lining in these new boots. The fit is true to size and they are really nice. High quality construction, nice leather, materials, and stitching. These were purchased for motorcycling, and my initial impression just wearing them around the house is, they will be very comfortable. It's nice to have a shoe that is also very comfortable once you get to a designation on your bike.

About 3 years ago, I purchased a pair of Doc Martens similar to their current industrial boots for my job. http://www.zappos.com/dr-martens-hardwick-ind-st-black. They are still in great shape after having seen a year and a half in a tire factory where shoes rarely last more than a year without showing heavy wear, so I was inclined to look for a pair of Docs when my sneakers started to wear out. These fit me perfect and feel great. I'm very picky on how a shoe feels around the ankle. I like something that will hold the shoe in place without being uncomfortable or restricting movement. To me, this shoe strikes the perfect balance. The sole feels great to walk on and kind of has a springy feel to it. Zappos was very prompt with their delivery and even escalated my shipping even though I had selected the free option. I ordered these a mere 20 hours before they showed up at my door.

I love these boots. I wanted a black boot that wasn't too clunky for the office yet wearable in the winter and these could be the only shoes I need. The sole is the oxford style instead of the tread boot which at first is a drawback, but it makes them very comfortable and walkable and hasn't compromised much traction so far. The lining is thin and soft, but surprisingly warm and allows for heavier socks. The "9 eye" keeps a tight cinch on the laces and makes slip-on/off a little difficult, but they fit like no other shoe I know and really wrap your foot without feeling tight. Medium width is a fuzzy term so I was pleasantly surprised at the generous width. I'm a size 10-2/3 wide and the 45eu (11) was perfect. A very comfortable, durable all around shoe.

Back to Docs after years of infidelity. Like coming home. Comfortable as a warm bath. Good and wide for my big banana feet.

Wonderful fit and feel - This sandal is wonderfully comfortable and I have very sensitive feet. They fit true to size and support all day. I bought them because they looked cute and comfortable - a combination that is hard to find.

Daisy - I purchased these as a replacement for some other Josef Seibel shoes that are very worn after 6+ years of comfortable service. The footbed and sole style of these is different than my old ones which were very comfortable from day one. The Daisy needs to be broken in as the top straps are cutting into my feet. Also, the arch area seems shallower than the design of my old ones (I have a high arch). I think they may be OK after break-in, but wish they had the same out of box comfort as the other design. Also, I ordered the same size as my old ones, but these seem larger.

Cute! Great shoe! I really love the look of this shoe. I was looking for shoes to wear on our trip to Europe, and I think I found it. They look great and are very comfortable for walking. The only draw back...we had a little rain last week and they really leak! Not for wet weather! Otherwise, great.

Very supportive shoe, with caveat - Looks good, Leather feels soft & subtle, Very good & supportive sole and arch. One thing though, on the top of the shoe, where the laces start, was tight. It has loosened with wear. I may still take the left shoe to the shoeman and have the top stretched a bit. Take this in consideration if you have issues with the top of your feet.

Great work shoe - I am a waitress and these boots are great for long hours on my feet! Felt tight over the top at first but soon stretched out.
