Customer Reviews Dr. Martens 1460 Bex Smooth Leather Lace Up Boots

Originally I went with the Jadons for my very first pair of Docs. The break in for those was pretty harsh and even after they were more broken in they’re still a fairly harsh wear for me. So I decided to switch it up to these right c’here. The difference is night and day between these two. I had a much better experience with break in and daily wear of the BEX. I find the BEX much more comfortable to walk in which I believe is due to the thinner outsole. I wasn’t limping around in these like with the Jadons, no blisters and my feet were just dying to get out the jadons after a few hours. So I’m pretty happy with my purchase. Get some cats asking about/ complimenting them. I do wish they were a little softer but definitely not a deal breaker. Hoping they release these in all white and I think it’d be cool if they incorporated the side zipper on these like they did on the Jadons.

I really wanted to try a pair of traditional Docs. I got a 8 size as recommended by some reviews (I wear a 7) and they are way too big. Also, really heavy. I don't think the high calf is going to work for me either. Not used to the rubbing on the back of my calf. Not the shoes fault at all, just food for thought.

Fits nicely. Standard Docs, but with a fluffy insole that makes them super comfy.

I love them love the look and they are so comfortable

These are classic Docs with a slight stack. My 20 ish years old daughter loves them. I have worn them in the past. I’m a proud mama that this style has come full circle.

These are my first Dr. Martens. I ordered the Crazy Horse Brown leather. I tried them on immediately after they arrived. I was worried since I wear a 6.5 and I ordered a women’s size 7 that they may be way too big. I was pleasantly surprised that they fit as a 7 should fit and I should be able to wear thick socks with them. These boots are well made with a nice sturdy brown leather and the stitching appears to be well done. Although these are my first pair I’ve been around DM’s a long time(friends and family). So I know what to look for. I have absolutely no complaints. I wore them the same day to a family outing and had no “break in” issues which surprised the heck out of me. I am already planning my next order in black.

I loved the look and fit of these boots. They are very supportive & good looking at the same time. My custom orthotics fit in them even with the insole in the shoe (insole is not removeable). I sometimes need to size up to a 10.5, but these fit! The platform was fun, but not too much. I am only returning them bc I decided to go with the original Dr. Martens 1460. Just a matter of preference.

Love the boots. But I think the slight platform is too much for me so I'm ordering the original ones. I like that they are flat and comfortable and look great. The insole was not removeable but my orthotics fit in them anyway

This was a gift for my granddaughter. She loves them.

My 13 year old daughter says they are really, really nice. They are comfortable and shock absorbing.

The size still big, try 8 on somewhere else is too small, but this one with size is too big.

There boots are perfect. I have been buying Doc Martens for around 5 years now, and the only thing that changes is that I love them more and more after each purchase. I ordered them here because they were out of stock at Doc Martens web site. It was like if I went to the shoemaker and they took measurements of my feet to make these boots. Just perfect. The quality of the materials nd construction can be seen and felt as soon as you take them out of the box.

The fit is true to size and very stylish. Love these!

a little big but if you take smaller it fits me tight

The soul on the BEX is much thicker than on the Smooth model.

Fit and size a great and true to the size guide, the sole is think and makes walking comfortable however the leather is very stiff and looks shiny . It needs to break in, I will wear the boots often at home at first with thick socks. and gradually expand the time wearing those. I had Dr. Martens before for 15 years and finely got new ones doe to a hole in the toe box .I hope this pair lasts as long as the old one.

Doc Martens are a slightly uncomfortable to break in, but after wearing for a little while they quickly become one of your favorites. Whether they add edge to a spring dress or amplify a fall outfit, it’s hard not to notice them. Maintain the leather and these boots will last years.

These run a little big.

They're probably awesome once broken in but they just hurt like hell every time I wear them. I just don't think they are worth it (even if it stopped hurting one day). They're bulky, gaudy, heavy. My first Dr.M. I had to try to see what the hype was all about. I guess they are not my style, ymmv.

The sole of the shoe was too thick.

I’m between a women’s 8/9, tried both sizes and they are either way too tight or way too loose. Not for my feet.

Too small, I’m size 8 1/2. 8 been too small and 9 too big

They fit great lengthwise but they were so wide I couldn't even tie them tight enough, the laces were pulled so tight there wasn't any lace left to pull and they were still loose over my foot. At the leg the leather was so stiff it hurt to walk in them, no give at all.

I like the look. Dr Martens needs to make half sizes. Not as good quality as the 13 year old pair I replaced.

These boots would not loosen up. I know you have to break in Docs but this was ridiculous. I couldn’t bend my ankle. They also squeaked a lot. This is with the smooth leather version.
