Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1460 Smooth Leather Boots

I have to agree with others that the quality on the leather has gone down. Size wise, I wear a 9.5 US, I bought the UK 9 and added the inserts and they fit perfect. So, if you are a US size, order a UK size 1 smaller, if you are a half size, add the inserts and you will be set.

Love Dr. Martens. Great boots that last for years. Comfortable and great looking. As always, Zappos makes buying shoes as painless as possible. Great shipping from and to, if for some reason you're not happy.

Love the look of these boots. Solid looking. Took a few days and blisters to break in. Got a size smaller and they fit great. Only thing: haven't even worn them a couple of days and already the leather is peeling and flaking. They are cheaply made uppers even though they have a solid sole wish I would have went with another pair because of the flaking, peeling leather.

There is a seam that runs along the top of the shoe that cuts into the top of your foot (front of ankle). It would be a great shoe with the exception of this. It is extremely painful! Don't think it would be possible to break in, seems like a defect.

My order was delivered timely and the boots were exactly as expected. They run big, our son actually wears a whole size lower in Dr Martens. Great service - thanks!

The size is true to spec. I am a US size 10 and based on prior reviews to buy a size down as it comes oversized, I did. But I had to exchange it as it was now too small.

AWESOME Customer Service! I had to exchange for a different size and my boots were out of stock. Zappos let me know when they got them back in and sent me my new pair before they even got the originals back! Everyone I spoke with there were very personable and bent over backwards trying to help me.

I purchased these for my 15 year old son. He is very happy with them. It took a few days to break them in, but he wears them everyday. I like them because they are appropriate for most occasions and they can easily be cleaned. He wears an 11 in running shoes, but we sized down according to reviews and they fit.

Honestly, I've avoided most boots due to comfort issues for years now, but these break the pattern. Took very little time to break in, and now that they're soft and pliable, it's almost magical walking around in them. Even though they aren't the UK version (Mine are from Vietnam), the construction seems tight. My only note on these shoes is that I originally bought a different pair which were supposedly my size in the US (I wear a size 14US/13UK), but they were cramped and seemed a half size too small. I bought these in a 15US/14UK and though they are a bit big/loose, it's still super comfortable. Compared to the other sizing comments, I'd warn anyone who wears a 14 to buy a size up, specifically.

This is my 3rd pair of black 8-eye Docs (#1460). Love them. Fit well, seams are solid. Leather is good quality.

Very frustrated to have had these Doc Martens for a year and see both shoes have their soles begin tearing away from the bottom of the shoe. And, after really only wearing 2-3 times per week. Not happy to have to have them re-glued. I hope they last, but will reconsider buying Doc's in the future.

I've been a long-time Dr. Martens 1460 wearer over the years, and these are no different. Consistent fit and quality are what keep me coming back, although you won't have to that often since these boots usually last a good 5yrs+ when cared for. I chose the Grizzly color for a new office/shop environment which works well without having to switch to full-dress shoes. All-in-all a great boot with no-frills.

Normally wear a size 10.5 or 11 but these run a 1/2 size big the 10's fit me perfect. After a week of breaking in these are the most comfortable boots I have ever owned.

Like them. These were a little stiff to break in and took a little time to loosen up. They could use a little more support. I recommend buying insoles.

For people commenting on the poor quality, Doc Martens have not been the same since they started making them elsewhere. One can still order boots directly from the original manufacturer and get better quality but they cost more.

Great color and quality but way too big! I am not going to return them since I have already worn them on the farm, thicker socks will suffice. They are very comfortable.

Hooray for Docs! Get these and you won't regret it, but be prepared for a slight break-in period (well worth it). I had a green pair about 20 years ago and the sizing and styling are still true to form. Can't go wrong as style never goes out of fashion!

Nice boots for casual wear. Definitely not for real blue collar work or long periods of tramping about. I have a low arch and these are very comfortable. Also I wear a D width and they fit loose without and insole. The leather requires little to no break in time. Size 12 slightly big.

Comfortable and iconic, but it's appalling that half sizes aren't available. I wear a 9.5 in all types of shoes, therefore, I needed a 9.5 in Dr. Martens. Unfortunately, U.S. 9s are too small and U.S. 10s are too large.

I didn't believe the hype and bought a pair of UK 12 (US13) since most of my other Docs (shoes and chelsea boots) fit better at that size, but these 1460s really do run large, at least all the way up there. I dance between a 12 and 13 in US shoes all the time, and for these, I ended up returning the larger pair and getting a UK 11. These needed no breaking in out of the box, perfectly comfortable from day 1. Seems that Doc Martens quality is still there.

I love these boots! I tried em in a women's size 8 and size 7. This women's size 6 is way too adorable! They are so cute it is illegal! They are attention getters and there is nothing as gorgeous as them for fall!

I've worn Doc Martens for years. Bought two pair of the Originals and am highly disappointed. I don't even believe that they are leather. Looks more like plastic or vinyl. Uncomfortable and the one pair squeak horribly. I contacted Doc Marten with my concerns regarding the boots and they responded with their return policy regarding defects and/or damage. Thing is, it is not a defect or damage, it is like thinking your buying a BMW 5 Series but get a Pontiac Fiero.

These are much too cute! I love them so much! They fit snug and I didn't know that's how they fit! People stop and ask where did you get those shoes! They are so different and cool! I adore them! (So does everybody that asks me where I got 'em!)
