Dr. Martens, Women's Maple Zip Steel Toe Light Industry Boots

This is my 8th pair of Docs and these are the best. The leather is so soft, there is very little breaking in time though I'd still only wear them a few hours a day at first because the heel cup is still rigid.The leather is very nice and matte. The product image has grainier or more textured leather--which is what I wanted--but I'm not too disappointed. These look and feel fantastic. With other Doc boots, the area around the ankle will still be a little stiff even after years of wear. This is no big deal because it's not uncomfortable and if you need the protection (like riding a motorcycle or stuff at work), it's nice. However these are very soft around the entire ankle from day one. They actually move and flex a bit. I can't tell you how nice this is!I know there is a lot of complaining about UK-made versus China-made docs. At this price point, obviously this is the China-made version. However, I think the quality and value is still excellent. The craftsmanship in the UK-made boots are noticeably better. However, will the China-made ones hold up? Absolutely. The construction is still the same in principle. Did it ever dawn on people that a big part of the price difference between the two is because UK wages are much higher than the Chinese labor--which is why they are mostly made in China? I can't fault DM for making a sound business decision 90% of shoe manufacturers do. (Redwing, Nike, Adidas, Uggs, Etc).The soles are great, darker than the other ones that look more clear and like hot glue. This tread pattern is the best. The other heavier lug sole tread kind of have a logger-look and make the boot look clunkier. I have both, and this is a good all-year tread. The only Doc boot I have that is more comfortable is probably the Rigal. However, it's more like a basketball shoe than a boot. Also, for me the sizing is way off (they run big) and they get a little hot inside.Inside, the footbed is super comfortable. Now these are boots. All boots get a little hot, unlike super-breathable mesh running shoes. But compared to other boots, these breath okay and are simultaneously water-proof. If you need more arch support--like many people do--SuperFeet makes a half-size plastic supplement for shoes. It only goes to the middle of your foot to the heal and it's very thin. It would not take up much of the foot room which can be adjusted anyway with the laces. It makes a remarkable difference and you can get few more hours out of these if you stand all day. It is a hard plastic device so do test them out first in stores. Mine never slip.I love these Carpathian boots and I think you will too. If you are looking to buy your first pair of DMs and you don't want them to be shiny, these are the ones. They won't kill your feet the first 10 times you wear them and they look awesome!

I ordered, and received, a White pair, US Size Women's 5.Better than a pair of sneakers which will not protect your feet from being stepped on. Additionally, if your sneakers are made of cloth or some kind of canvas your sneakers will not keep your feet dry in winter/rainy weather. And....ugh and euwww....your canvas sneakers will not protect your feet from becoming polluted during your trips to the airplane bathrooms (ugh...dirt, human waste, germs).Doc Martens are my ultimate choice:Instead of sneakers (even leather ones), I got these comfortable platform zippered-closure Doc Martens in the colour white. These totally comfortable platform Doc Martens are a perfect solution because they are super easy and fast to put on and get off while going through inspections by TSA.These Doc Martens look smart. They give that polished, stylish, neatly put-together look and vibe while you are traveling....by air, train, or sea or during that long road trip.I have several pairs of Doc Martens (all of them platform models). This particular pair, like all my other pairs of Doc Martens shoes, is very comfortable, cradles my feet, supports my ankles, and can be worn all day and night. They also give me that extra appreciated height, giving me that desirable long-legged look.I got this model of Doc Martens (with the zipper in front) especially because I want to be comfortable on an airplane and be able to quickly and easily take off my shoes and as quickly and easily put my shoes back on when going through TSA inspections and lines. They might feel heavy at first, but at 81 years old, I can still trot/run in these shoes to catch a flight.For travelers....airplanes...these shoes are a surefire way to avoid wading around on the often sloppy floors of airplane bathrooms (euwww). Perhaps you've read that news about a lung haul flight having to turn back because a passenger defecated "all up and down" in the airplane. Imagine having to walk through that stinky mess in other kinds of shoes. You will wish you had on a pair of platform Doc Martens to "rise above the crowd".These shoes are made of high-quality, strong leather and built on a sturdy sole that can easily and quickly be wiped down with a damp cloth/towel or even rinsed off if someone vomits on your feet or spills/splashes yuk-poop stuff onto your feet.Just go for them....you'll be glad you did. These shoes arrived in record time and were well-packed. They come in several colours so you aren't limited to getting them only in elegant white.

I AM OBSESSED!!!I have been eyeing these boots for a long while now and am beyond pleased with overall quality and next day shipping. The zipper is detachable via the eyelets and the laces have a bit of a stretch to them but still feel snug when tied. So far ive had no pinching or rubbing in my heel or toes. (Though I've had them for a very short time) I will give a more accurate update in about a month to three months. But as of right now, BUY THESE!!! 🫶🏼✨️FOR REFERENCE:The ones I purchased are the worn matte brown leather with the zipper down the tongue.

I'm really glad I decided to get Docs after all. I was a little skeptical buying shoes online because I'm not able to try them on or experience them before I pay for them. But I am very happy that I got these boots and I get compliments on them in school and work.Though these are described as a cherry red they are more of an oxblood, which I prefer because the muted color coordinates well with many of my outfits. I got the Docs in the transitioning time between the spring and the winter.The leather is very, very tough. I honestly did not understand just how hard the shoes are until I got them. This is great for rain and a moderate amount of snow I got during the early spring, both my Docs were able to handle it well without wetting my feet and kept them warm. Also I can wear them to work (where I sometimes lift heavy boxes) without worrying about damaging them or accidentally harming my feet.However, they are a bitch to break in. I've read a lot of reviews of people getting bruises and I can see how that could happen but I personally did not have any bruises. The sides and area where the foot naturally arches were particularly tight. At first I could not walk right with the boots tied all the way up, only half way.The first week of wearing the Docs everyday to school my feet got red and irritated but that would end a couple minutes after taking them off. The shoe does eventually stretch, mold to your feet and become more pliable but for me it has been very gradual. Granted, I don't wear them too often now that summer has kicked in. They are a touch too warm for the weather but not unbearable. I still don't tie them completely when I wear them, only up to the sixth hole but this is just personal preference. Right now they are comfortable and I can see them stretching and becoming very comfy in the coming fall when I start wearing them more regularly.Overall the quality of the shoe is very high. The stitching is very well done and the construction is sound. But as a warning the boots will squeak a bit when you first start wearing them but that stops as they become less stiff. It's a little obnoxious if you're alone in an empty hallway but it's not anything people get bothered by. As for sizing, I'm typically a size US9.5 sometimes a US9. I bought size UK7 of this shoe which translates to a 9, they actually where okay long-wise which leads me to believe they run a bit big. But they were tight at the sides and a little at the heel, but of course they stretched out.Mostly I think these are rad shoes that really fit my style and I am already thinking of buying another pair.

I have had these shoes for a few weeks now and the longer I have them, the more I like them. I ordered them according to the sizing chart, but thought they would be too small, but I'd give them a try. When I first put them on I was sure that I had ordered them too small, but very soon they fit me snugly as if they had been custom built to my feet. I noticed they fit without my foot sliding around inside and after a few days (to let my feet and my shoes to get to know each other) my feet felt at home in them. These boots are made of "Crazy Horse Leather" which is not horse hide at all, but a full grain leather that is normally used in saddle making. I expect these shoes will last and last and will look even better with age. One thing though, they are not even "water resistant" much less water proof, so you will have to treat them yourself if that is important to you. I use them for hiking and as motorcycle shoes and (with half chaps) horseback riding. They make great paddock boots, just don't step in deep squishy ... stuff. They are made in Vietnam with world class workmanship.

Literally just put them on the second time and the pull came undone! My previous pair is 3 years old and looks like new. What on earth! Sending back

I wish I could buy these again but can't find them anywhere...

Als langjähriger Fan von Dr. Martens war ich gespannt darauf, die Unisex 1460 Combat Boots auszuprobieren, und ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Diese ikonischen Stiefel sind nicht nur stylisch, sondern auch äußerst robust und vielseitig.Das erste, was mir auffiel, als ich die Stiefel auspackte, war die Qualität des Materials. Das Leder ist von ausgezeichneter Qualität und fühlt sich robust und langlebig an. Ich war jedoch nicht überrascht, dass sie anfangs etwas steif waren, da dies typisch für hochwertige Lederschuhe ist. Doch entgegen meiner Befürchtungen waren sie viel angenehmer zum Einlaufen als erwartet. Nach ein paar Tagen tragen hatten sie sich bereits an meine Füße angepasst und fühlten sich wie eine zweite Haut an.Die Sohle der Stiefel bietet hervorragende Traktion und Stoßdämpfung, was sie ideal für lange Spaziergänge oder sogar leichte Wanderungen macht. Obwohl sie den Look von klassischen Kampfstiefeln haben, sind sie überraschend bequem und bieten genügend Unterstützung für den ganzen Tag.Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die Vielseitigkeit dieser Stiefel. Sie lassen sich problemlos mit verschiedenen Outfits kombinieren, von lässig bis schick, und verleihen jedem Look eine coole Note.Alles in allem bin ich super zufrieden mit meinen Dr. Martens Unisex 1460 Combat Boots. Sie sind robust, bequem und sehen einfach klasse aus. Ich kann sie jedem empfehlen, der auf der Suche nach einem langlebigen und vielseitigen Paar Stiefel ist.

公式ショップで買おうと思っているうちにディスコンになってしまい、Amazonで購入。助かりました。皮も柔らかく最高です。

Comme toujours avec Dr Martens, jamais déçue, elles sont superbes!Envoi rapide et soigné, et en plus j'ai pu profiter d'une réduction ! Que demander de plus?!

Die besten Schuhe der Welt! Wuuuunderschöne Farbe....Man muss nur die ersten !Monate! tapfer am "Eingehen" sein...(damals als Teenager hatte ich auch welche aber kann mich nimma erinnern, dass ich so litt) --- hat man die Zeit überwunden, geht man wie auf Wolken....(....Die Rezension mit dem Fleischklopfer versteh ich mittlerweile... wollte sie auch aus Verzweiflung weich schlagen aber schaffte es auch so.....)

Als ich mir ein neues Paar Schnürstiefeletten kaufen wollte, fiel meine Wahl auf diese klassischen Doc Martens, die 1460. Ich bestellte sie in englischer Größe 9, also deutscher 43. In Halbschuhen trage ich 42, in Stiefeln lieber etwas größer. Meine anderen Docs-Stiefel sind in derselben Größe, passt super.Nach dem Erhalt der Stiefel fettete ich sie erst mal gut ein und wiederholte das 24 h später. Nach einem weiterebn Tag ging es dann erstmals raus. Ein Gang mit dem Hund, rund um den Block. Die Stiefel waren gar nicht mal so unbequem. Tagsdrauf dann ging es auf eine große Runde, mehrere Kilometer über Straße, Feld und Wiese. Okay, das spürte ich dann schon an den Füßen, aber Blasen gab es keine. Das Einlaufen ist also nicht so dramatisch.Die Verarbeitung macht einen hervorragenden Eindruck, die Nähte sind alle fehlerfrei, da passt und sitzt alles. Auch das Leder macht einen guten Eindruck.Viel wurde und wird geschrieben über angeblich schlechte Qualität von Docs made in Thailand. Nun, ich habe bereits ein Paar Docs aus Thailand, seit einigen Jahren, und die sind tadellos. Wenn ich ehrlich sein soll, ich wüsste auch nicht, aus welchem Grund ich Fabrikarbeitern in England mehr Qualitätsarbeit zutrauen sollte als Fabrikarbeitern in Thailand. Anders wäre das vielleicht, wenn es diese Stiefel noch aus der Originalfabrikation von Doktor Märtens zu erwerben gäbe, aber so ist es mir ziemlich egal, ob die in England, Thailand oder sonstwo genäht werden.Fazit: gute klassische Doc Martens, fast unschlagbares Preis/Leistungsverhältnis.
