Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1460 Nappa Leather Lace Up Boots

Great looking boots. I have had an issue with breaking them in during the winter time. The dryness of the air is keeping the leather dry and they have 'leather squeak' (which is a term I just invented.) I have had a pair of these boots previously, but I bought them 4 years ago and in the spring so they were well broken in by the time winter came. I still have the previous pair of boots, too, but they're in brown (and in excellent shape) and I wanted a black pair. These boots will probably last close to forever with proper maintenance. My 4 year old pair needed shoelaces a couple of months ago, and some new soles eventually.

I love Docs. I have a pair of brown ones that I've owned for over 10 years that are finally broken in. ;-) These are in the horrible, painful new phase, but I love the color, and I know that once I get them broken in, they will be awesome. Doc Martens are not for the faint of heart (or foot), but if you love the look, it is worth the time! I have to go find my rubber mallet and a towel.

Great quality. Super comfortable. Love the color. Really these are the most awesome boots, ever!

I have worn the same pair of boots for 12 years now.they have been neglected,motorcycle exhaust pipe melted,and they still rock! They are by far the best boots I have EVER owned. I have heard they changed their ways and that is sad. I guess I'll find out.

Got these for my 18 year old son and he absolutely loves them! They are cool, timeless and classic and are really comfortable for him. I especially love that they will last him a long, long time. I had docs in the '80's and loved them then and it's great to know that they still rock today!

These shoes are so great. I have a really narrow foot and I am usually a size 8 1/2 (US) so I went with a 6 (UK). I recommend going down 2 sizes from your US size. I wanted these shoes for comfort only, but they are really trendy and go with just about everything. Now breaking them in seems to be a problem for everyone else, but for me it only took about 2 days. They are a little big on me but that means I can wear thick socks in the winter so I don't think it matters much. Not many people have these shoes at my school so it's nice to have something a little different than what anyone else has. Overall, the price is a little much but honestly they are such good shoes it's totally worth it. I'm thinking about ordering another pair soon,. Hope this helped and good luck!

These were a gift for my 21 year old son, who had wanted a pair for years. He is so happy with them. They fit well and are of good quality leather, so worth what you pay for them.

Great product,prompt order deliver. Zappos order tracking system updated and live customer service are all components for an easy order experience.

This is my 3rd pair of Dr.'s.Consistent in quality and super comfort. Sole inside and out is not only very durable but extremely comfortable on my flat feet. Love the ankle support.Takes only a short time to break them in. My first pair is 20yrs old and no problems with leather, stitching, sole, etc.

Beautiful boots, and in the nick of time for a Christmas gift to my hipster daughter. She loves that they look black, but she "knows they're navy." We knew if we had a problem with the fit of the boot, that Zappos would take care of us!

Excellent quality for the money. Not the same quality as the Docs from the 90s but hey, the world isn't the same either. Great boot for casual Fall and Winter wear, not a boot for the construction site. I will buy another pair for sure! Shipping was slow. I was once a VIP Member and am no longer. I miss that shipping expedience. Well done Zappos.

Fit true to size & color is great. Love them. Perfect for winter weather. No slipping & sliding with these on & fairly warm for everyday wear & tear.

I bought my first Doc's lace up boots, back in the 90's. Warning do not kick a log into a fire. leather kinds of melts? So bought another pair, same kind in the early 2000's. they have been good boots, they back stitching has came loose, so I will have to repair, myself. I will if i have to another pair. just love these boots and have had several comments.

Mmmm. I love me some Doc Martens. I have been wearing them since the 90's and they bring back some great old memories. I have stuck to the low cut oxfords lately since I am an office guy now. HOWEVER, after I saw Miley Cyrus riding a wrecking ball wearing nothing but her 1460 docs, I had to get a pair.. as gross as that was. I used to wear these back in the day, listening to the awesome music of the 90's in my late teens and early twenties. Oh the memories. Definately a keeper but go for the Black NAPPA leather rather than the smooth. It holds up better in my humble opinion.

First Dr. Martens I've purchased. The sizing was right on. These Are the most comfortable boots I own. They look great and fit right.

Dr. Martens are my favorite boots. I have a few pairs I bought 20 years ago and they still look like I purchased them last week. Not only are they durable, but they are the most comfortable boot I have ever worn. Also, they never ever smell bad. I could wear them with no socks for a year and they still don't smell. They are worth every cent I paid and are always stylish!

These are the #1 best shoes I ever purchased from Zappos and I've purchased a lot of shoes from Zappos! I ordered the "Black Smooth/Union Jack". I get an abundance of complements every single time I wear them, without fail! Since the British shoe size is slightly different than USA sizes, I got a shoe foot lining.

They come in UK sizes, not US sizes & I got a UK size 11, not exactly comparable to a US size 10.5, but I love it! The design is amazing! Told my European Facebook friends all about these sweet shoes!

As a top front man for the band ultra fuze.com - I am always looking for a cool, comfortable and durable shoe for both aesthetics and comfort. This boot upholds it all. Perfect feel and look. Thanks Doc Marten!

These are awesome boots! I like the brand for quite a long time and they are my first brand new ones. It really takes time to get them fit your feet, but then they feel so natural and comfortable.

I have been wearing these specific Dr. Martin boots for over 20 years. They are incredibly comfortable, perfect for wherever you are walking/going and last a long time. Even if you are as hard on them as I am. The last pair I bought I have had with me when I have stayed in various hotels that offer complimentary professional shoe shining service and no matter how badly I have scuffed up the tips (that happens when you wear them when you are remodeling your home) they have come back the next morning looking nearly new. If you want stylish boots that will stay in style, comfortable no matter how long you are on your feet, and provide great ankle support these are the ones to choose!

Buy the Dr. Martens leather balsam with these. The break in will be easier, and it's good for them.

These were my 15th birthday present. I received the 1460 Black Patent. I got a size up which felt great from my perspective. There are many reviews saying order up or order down. I think it is best to try them on for yourself just to see how they might feel, with your own 2 feet.

I love Doc Martens, these are not my first pair. Ordered these through Zappos, they came promptly, exactly as described, and I am happy to be wearing them right now. I would order through Zappos again in the future without reservation.

Great boot! Good fit...order 1/2 size smaller than your normal size. Break-in time is a little longer than usual, but once done, extremely comfortable! Use a good boot oil, I recommend Dr. Martens brand, to keep leather and seams soft during break-in and for ongoing protection. You're going to love this boot.
