Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1460 Nappa Leather Lace Up Boots

The seem across the top of the toe below the laces ruined the fit. Had to return.

I normally wear 8-1/2 and I ordered these in an 8 which seemed to be the correct size. My problem with these Doc lights is they are still very heavy. They weigh 1.5 per shoe and I felt as if I was dragging my feet around. They are so cute but for this 70+ year old woman, too heavy. I'll stick with my Pikolino boots that weigh half that and have more support but still look coo.

I usually wear a size 8.5 M or W and the 8 in DM is a perfect fit. These boots look good and they are comfortable would need a few wear to totally break it in. I would have kept them if the toungue were not attached to the sides, and you cannot lift the flaps/tongue up and its pressing too hard onto your feet when you walk which makes them uncomfortable, makes them tight. Hard to put on and off.

I was so excited to finally get some docs on sale, but now I'm heartbroken. The bridge where the laces end is VERY low, making these shoes tight and uncomfortable. I wish they fit. They are beautiful.

I’ve had two other pairs of docs before these ones. My feet randomly grew and they got too small, so I bought these in the Black Napa Leather. I expected and am okay with them being slightly too big lengthwise because I am in between sizes, but they are really loose all around the width of my feet. The Black Napa Leather creases really easily and doesn’t feel very sturdy, so if you don’t like those elements I wouldn’t recommend the material. Overall these shoes are just okay. I would return them, but I’ve worn them twice outside and I’m lazy. They are alright, so it’s not that bad. I’d give them a 5/10.

LOVED the look but so uncomfortable!!!!!! Painful, actually! Stiff!

The boot is really really cute. However, it was way too narrow and very hard.

I really wanted to like these but they were very uncomfortable when I tried to walk in them.

These boots are heavy and not as comfortable as I thought for the price. I thought since they’re so expensive it would feel like walking on clouds, but no, that’s not the case. We’re creased after the first day use.

the size was good, felt true to size but there is no arch support.

Oh I much I wanted to love these!!! The style is so cool, timeless and hippy! But, oh my, the leather is thick and stiff and I was ready to bleed and suffer for about a month to break them in. But once I put them on… there was a huge stitching seam on the top inside, where the tongue is attached. It’s so rough, and sticking out so bad it’s like a sharp piece pressing the top of my foot. Who designed that???? So sad to return them.

If you’re looking for a stylish way to fight the cold or snow like I was, then this is the boot for you! Patent-leather is in the season and I don’t see it going anywhere which is why I had to grab these before all the hype beast jumped on them. I never owned a pair of Dr.Martens so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’m a size 8 yet normally I like to get a half size up for wiggle room. Unfortunately these boots don’t come in half-sizes( which manufacturing should reconsider??) They fight wonderfully besides the fact that they’re slight right width wise. I’ve only worn them twice so I’m praying they loosen up with wear! Other than the width of the shoe these are a great buy!

The tongue and vamp of shoe were so stiff and tight and pressed against the top of my foot. It was so painful I could hardly walk and I have a narrow foot. Shoe itself is very stylish.

I've wanted a pair of these since the 90s but I'd never even tried them on before. These are the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn. The area where the tongue starts is done in such a way that it feels like a metal rod is pressing across the top of your foot. There's a thick seam there and the material is bent and taut. Hard to explain. The sole is stiff and doesn't give. The insole is hard. How the heck can anyone wear these things? Find another brand that actually cares about style AND comfort. They could've made these comfy on the inside, but it's like they take pride that there's a tough break-in period people have to endure just for the style and brand. No thanks!

Absolutely huge! I wonder if I even got the right size or right sex for the boot. They were huge on me. Hard to even review. On top of that, they were just a little too Frankenstein clunky.

Not happy with this purchase and the waste of time and resources in receiving and returning them. The product description just says premium leather. It does not say anything about a rub-off dye. I was specifically trying to avoid the rub-off styles. When the boots arrived, it was clear they had already been rubbed off in a few places, which is not at all the look I was going for. Wish the product description had been more accurate.

Not a comfortable fit for wide calf. Leather may have loosened up after wear for a better fit, but I'm not willing to chance them never fitting well.

I really wanted to like this--it's not like the picture. The leather is--not leather?--shiny and feels like plastic. I love purple and this is ugly in person. This boot had almost no support except for the incredibly stiff plastic upper.

I currently own the same boots without laces and love them so thought this would be an easy fit; however, where the tongue of the shoe is stitched into the shoe digs into the top of your foot so badly that I couldn't wear them even around the house. I have pretty flat feet so I was surprised that these would dig into my foot as much as they did. Overall, I am disappointed.

i request a size 5 but you guys sent me a men size 10 so i never got to wear the shoe. it was entirely too big.

These just don't work for me. I'm a 7.5 shoe size. Since they don't come in 1/2 sizes. 7 was too small and 8 was too big.

These are so incredibly stiff I have no idea how one would “wear them in”. I couldn’t even get the laces to tighten them. Returned and bummed

This a review on the shiny patent leather finish. Very disappointing. I lived in 1460s through the 1990s. These are not the Docs of the 90s. They feel cheap and have scratchy seams on the inside — and much lighter in weight than the ones I was wearing 25+ years ago. It seems that since my last pair, Dr. Martens has started manufacturing in China. My old pair were made in England and were of significantly better quality. In addition to the general cheapness of these boots, the patent leather squeaks. LOUDLY! I went to the Dr. Martens website to try to figure out how my beloved 1460s had declined so much. Well, as it turns out, if I want the same quality as my pair from the 90s I have to pay double the cost to order a “made in England” pair with the original materials and specifications directly from Dr. Martens. I may just have to do that because these cheap mockeries of the 1460s are going right back to Zappos

These seem like some kind of fake leather to me. Not happy at all.

TERRIBLE? returned! They SQUEAK, CRACKLE and stick to floor while walking. SO DISAPPOINTED
