Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1461 Bex

I am OBSESSED with these shoes. I seriously want to wear them everyday. They make every outfit look cooler and they’re very flattering. They do run pretty big, however. I have very small feet and usually wear a size 5.5 or 6. I got the 5 in these, which is the smallest size available and they fit like a 6. I put inserts in though and they’re perfect. They do take some time to break in but once you do, they’re do worth it. The platform sole is not too chunky, but just chunky enough. A classic shoe that’s perfect for fall!

I didn't love the look of these as much as other Doc Martens -- they're more pointed in the toe than classic Docs, which I find much less appealing, but there was still lots to like and they would serve me for formal work stuff if they only fit right. That was the kicker. I wore them around the house ... ever hopeful that the narrowness across the middle of my foot (side to side, not on top) would ease, but I can't deny it: my wider foot needs a more accommodating shoe, and this was the first Doc M that has squeezed me there.

I'm very dissapointed. I've had these shoes 6 months, I wear them to an office every day, so i'm certainly not hard on them; They don't get wet, and I shine them with the martens balm every week. ALREADY, They've worn a hole on the right side where my pinky toe rests, which is ridiculous. These are supposed to be durable, long lasting shoes. And considering i've had 30 dollar cheap dress shoes in the past last longer than this, well lets just say i'm not happy about spending over 100$ on something that didn't even last for a year.

Needs time to be broken in but perfect nonetheless.

So disappointed with the quality and fit of these. They are nothing like the Made in England Dr.Martens. Very light weight, poor quality leather, brittle sole and little to no padding. I was looking to replace a well loved pair I've had for many years and I had no idea how much the quality has suffered since they are no longer made in England. Although the style is very much like the English Docs don't be fooled. I can't send them back fast enough.

I was very concerned about the chunkiness of the outsole, I am so glad it is well proportioned, it looks a bit dressy compare to the classic 1641 shoes, since it dose make you legs look longer, but still the same comfort, not heavy, don’t look like you have gigantic shoes on you like Ronald McDonald. I am so glad I got them, very cool looking!

Fits great - I ordered half a size down.

Super comfy and stylish

Fits nice, a little uncomfortable after awhile but nothing too harsh. Breaks in pretty easily.

I actually bought my daughter size which is a 7.5 so we went with an 8 it was huge like huge. So I ordered the size 7 and it fit perfectly. Zappos costumer service of course is the best so it was pretty painless

This Bex style is my new favorite ! It’s a perfect fit and extremely comfortable. Style is awesome. I’m sold!!

Perfect in every way and shape, aesthetic, etc. Just what I ordered. Except get a whole size smaller. :)

So sad but I have to return. I'm a women's size 9. Zappos suggested the size 8. It's too small. The 9 would be huge! Unfortunately I have to return but I am very sad about it. Reminded me of a pair I had in the 90s.

Overall the shoe is nice, just a lil big than usual for me. Will be using a insole to take up the slack. The also may feel a little heavy for non doc weares but I am use to this.

I wear a US Size 10 1/2 most of the time. I initially ordered a UK 10 in these shoes, but then read enough reviews to say go smaller, I went with the 9. They're just right and after a little break in to get rid of the stiffness of the leather, I'm sure they'll feel great. I know they're not made in the UK, but for what its worth they feel extremely sturdy and look great.

These are what you'd expect from Dr. Martens oxfords. There's nothing more to say this. They're a little too masculine without being cool (for me.(

The patent black version is a tiny bit too shiny which makes it look more plastic; with the thicker platform and heaviness it’s definitely not for an effortless style that I go for (meaning it needs extra “weight” from clothing to balance it out). Not the most comfortable shoes either - I got a slight blister only by trying them on at home, but if you just adore the punk style it’s probably worth the patience to break in!

Very nice shoes. I love Doc Martens. I especially love the thickness and height of this shoe's heel. Not too big, not too small. Just right. Very nice lift to them. The shoes were tight at first but after a day of wearing them (yes, I am expecting them to be comfortable after a day of wearing them) they felt very good and they definitely did stretch out. My only complaint so far is that the back of the shoe is rubbing against my ankle and it's a little painful. Maybe because that foot is smaller, not sure. But all things considered a very nice shoe. Keep up the great work Doc!

All is perfect

Extremely stylish but very uncomfortable. Highly suggest custom insoles for adequate support.

The material, as expected is stiff leather. Dr. Martens take a while to break in, so the comfort is not there initially.

It’s my first day wearing them and although they take time to break in, I absolutely love them. I ordered 1/2 size down and they fit perfectly. If you can, I suggest trying on a pair IRL. The only reason I didn’t them IRL was b/c they didn’t carry this color.

Really comfortable shoes , true to fit

Oddly enough, I like the white of these shoes. I also have these in black/white.

Delivery gets a 5 star, I live in a US territory and normally shipping takes at least 2 weeks but it came in a week! So fast! The shoes however are just as any doc marten, they are extremely stiff and a tad uncomfortable at first.. These pairs in specific def run a bit big. I usually wear a size 7-71/2, I ended up getting a 6 after reading reviews and they just a tad bit too perfect but I know forsure if I went for a 7 it would have been too big unless I were to use an insole. I did the good ole blowdryer and thick socks trick and they feel a lot more loosened now. I'm sure with more wear it will become more comfortable as well. Overall, they are so cute and I love them! Even if I suffer a bit wearing them :,)
