Customers Say

Customers find these shoes comfortable, with one noting the padding around the opening, and appreciate their solid construction, fantastic look, and versatility with jeans and khakis. The shoes are built to last, with one customer reporting 3 years of wear per pair, and they receive positive feedback for their quality. The fit receives mixed reviews - while some find them a great fit, others mention the sizing is way off, and the material quality is also mixed, with some praising the leather while others say they're not leather.

These have been my steady work shoes for 3 years and 3 months. They were comfortable out of the box, but with constant wearing and some conditioning have become uber-comfortable. The original insole gave out within 2 years, but some Dr. Scholl's gel-pads have done well to replace them. At long last I am looking for replacements. The padding that goes around the ankle on these is the weak link. It is not leather, but rather plastic and it is starting to crack and flake away. I think for my next purchase I may get a pair of 1461's that do not have the ankle padding feature. I think these shoes were an excellent value. Overall, I have been extremely pleased with these shoes, with the exception that they eventually wore out. Is it too much to hope for them to last forever?

Like the shoes, however if you are looking for the more original Doc don't go for the butero. Also have the shoes from about 5 years ago and the sizing is marked a size down from was it was then, so think about ordering smaller if you are looking at your old Docs for sizing. Other than that, love the shoes.

Super disappointed with these shoes. The a just over 6 month old and the sole is separating from the shoe (see photo) I have been wearing dr martens for many years and each pair has lasted me 2+ years. I am not sure if the quality is going down or if this was a defective pair but I will not be buying these again!

I'm extremely disappointed with my recent purchase. I've been wearing Docs for years and I love them, well most of them. I wore out a pair of 8053's and I replaced them with a new pair. This time I bought them a size bigger (US 13) because my big toe wore a hole through the top of the old shoe. I have a pair of wingtips 3989 size US 13 and bought a pair of ICON 7B10 STEEL TOE's over the summer US 13. The new 8053's are bigger than both of the other shoes. I hate to turn around and buy another pair of 8053's, but my foot is swimming in the new shoes and as you can see in the picture I can't tighten the laces any more. I wish a the sizes were true across all the styles. Very frustrating!

Review for Zappos VIP Points (What's this?)

After several months of having these shoes the soles have started to split down the length of both shoes. The cheap plastic rim where your foot goes into the shoe has been pealing away since the first couple of weeks. The quality of these shoes aren’t worth the price anymore. I would not recommend.
