Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1490

They are not like the other doc martens, width is a huge impact compare to the others. Very industrial looking

Not what I remember. Have definitely gotten cheaper over time. Save your bucks and opt for a higher end product.

I loved doc martens originally, till the overseas thing. The first of the new breed I got was from Thailand or Taiwan. They were great. They fit amazingly and the leather broke in beautifully. The Chinese one are about to put me off doc martens though. They don't fit as well. Can't really say too big or too small yet. Two pairs, one too big and one too small. Both us11's. The only consistency is that the leather loves to crack instead of crease.

I have worn Doc Martens, this style and size, for well over 12 years. I have had four different pairs in that time, and my last has by far been the biggest disappointment. No matter how much I polish and moisturize,they constantly squeak. Not to mention the fact that they are already wearing thin, and a small tear is forming, on the outside of the boot where they crease to have your toe area bend. I am very disappointed as I have never had this problem with my other three pairs. And they are less than a year old. Otherwise, same fit, design, and overall look.

For the price, I expected something much better. The leather is super thin and plastic-y and the whole boot feels and looks cheap. These are a far cry from the Dr. Martens from decades ago before they outsourced their production to other countries. I’d rather get something that will last me years rather than months.
