Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1461 Core

Dr. Martens doesn't carry half sizes and they're a bit on the narrow size, so order a size up. For example, I'm an 8.5, so I ordered a size 9 and they fit fine. An 8 would have been way too snug. They're comfortable and stylish!

I was between sizes, as i typically wear a 7.5 in women's shoes. The 8's were way too big. Thankfully the 7's fit great. Very comfortable shoe.

I love them. The leather is awesome and they’re true to size. Highly recommend to get a pair, or three.

I LOVE these! They are beautifully made and super versatile. I can wear them with pants and skirts; and for casual or work attire! I cannot believe how comfortable these shoes are; like walking on a cushion; I don’t think they are too heavy like other reviews have stated. The heel is a little stiff and needs some breaking in; but I just wear thicker socks and have been fine. The sizing is the only tricky part. I am usually an 8 1/2 or 9 in shoes so I got a 9. They are a little roomy but not too big, especially with socks. I think I may have been fine with an 8 but it probably would fit a little too tight. I will be wearing these all winter!

I wanted to love these shoes. The color is unusual and beautiful and Docs have a good reputation for durability. Sadly, they were just too uncomfortable and felt like bricks strapped to my feet: no flexibility, no cushion anywhere in the shoe. I had to send them back.

These shoes weigh a TON. They are cute and but I can't imagine wearing them daily. They would kill my ankles

I love these shoes! So comfortable just like my 1460 mono’s. Unlike the reviews, I do not find these heavy and I have some heavy Docs. So happy with them!!

I wore these through the 90’s. This pair was for my daughter. She wears a 7.5 and we Sized down after reading reviews. they fit pretty true to size. Her toe hit end of the 7. I know The rest will stretch and She has a narrow foot, so it was moderately comfortable, but for length- I returned them, will try the 8.

These are unbearably comfortable, which makes it hard for me to return them, but I worried that they looked too young on my elderly body.

These are adorable shoes, no doubt. However, they scratch very easily and after only one wearing, they have scuff marks on the tips and I’m concerned that the pink color will not stay pink. ?

I have had the vegan pair for six years and I just purchased these. The insoles in these are much more comfortable. They are not hard as rocks. I plan to keep them for many years. They are the perfect work shoes. They run true to size. I typically wear a size 8 and the 8 fits perfectly. I have 13 pairs of Dr Martens and for me Dr Martens usually run true to size except for the Mary Janes and the Blaire sandals. The insoles are also removable but I do not plan to remove them.

I really love these shoes, they're so comfortable. But I need them for work and they just don't look right with my uniform pants.

I am a size 10 but because I thought these may be unisex, so I ordered a 9 ladies/8 mens. They fit but I honestly have to take the insert out. I know a 10 would be too large. Love the shoe. Maybe after wear and stretching, I can put the insert back in. I wore them for 2 days in Philly. They look and feel great. Zappos as always is so fast with shipping. They are an outstanding company. If you are a solid 10 you probably should order a ladies 10/ mens 9 and wear thick socks. For me I wear a lot of thin or translucent fun socks so the size I purchased works for me.

I LOVE these shoes. The teal color is unusual and very cool. This is my 6th pair of doc martens, so I had high expectations and these shoes passed with flying colors! Zappos is the best...next day delivery.

these shoes look fantastic! the color is exactly as depicted in the picture. i thought they might be a little big. they are looser in the heel than i like, but after wearing them twice the fit has improved. there was no real break-in time needed, either. i walk a lot around town and stand for half the day at work. no fatigue or sore spots.

Fit and sizing on these are great. Slightly stiff and slightly heavy, but mainly just really supportive. Could use a pinch more arch support.

loved the shoe but it wasn't the look I was going for with my outfit(s)

These fit more narrowly than other Doc Martins that I have purchased recently. I had to return them because they created pressure on the front pads of my feet when I inserted orthotics. Other DM's shoes are deep enough that I don't have that issue using them with my orthotics. My feet are very narrow with a high arch, and I am extremely tender footed. For many with normal feet, they might be fine.
