Love, love, LOVE these boots! I've always wanted a pair and am happy with them now that I finally have them. Totally did not realize they were steel-toe boots when I bought them (they were on sale for 30% off!) so that was a nice bonus to discover when I tried them on the first time. They're snug around the ankle, easy to get on and off, stylish and sturdy, AND I get an extra three inches of height too! Two complaints. First is that the fit is a little loose (I'm a size 7 and ordered a size 7), but wearing a pair of thick socks, or two pairs of thin socks, makes them fit perfectly. Not a big deal considering they're my fall/winter boots for work, and I intended on wearing thick socks with them anyway. Second, the elastic on the outside of the right boot is already starting to fray :( I didn't realize that that was "a thing" common to the Chelsea boots after Doc Marten switched manufacturers, so to say I'm bummed is a bit of an understatement. I bought them in September 2022 and it's now the beginning of November 2022, so it only took about 2 months of consistent wear for the fraying to start.
JAN 2025 UPDATE: These boots are still amazing! The fraying on the side has not changed or gotten worse over the years, and I've worn them way more often than just in the fall/winter (they're super cute with ankle socks and sundresses in the summertime FYI). I purchased the official Doc Marten sole inserts, and now they fit PERFECTLY and I can wear them year-round comfortably. Also, there was never a breaking-in period with these boots, they were perfectly comfortable from the get-go.

| Product Description | Vegan high-shine synthetic material offers a premium and subtle two tone finish. | The Embury is based on our Original 2976 chelsea boot, and comes with amplified Docs DNA. | The 1460 is the original Dr. Martens boot. The boot's recognizable DNA looks like this: 8 eyes, grooved sides, a heel-loop, yellow stitching, and a comfortable, air-cushioned sole. | Black embroidered flowers cascade down the side of the boot, designed especially by DM's in-house creatives. | The Rometty is based on our traditional 2976 pattern with a thick, platform sole to take this style to the next level. Accentuated heel and vamp pannels add a contemporary feel to a well-known style. |
Different from Dr.Martens website
I ordered the women's size 10 boot from Amazon since there was such a a steep discount. I sized down from my typical skinny, long footed 10.5. I could get the boot on but my toes were completely crammed into the toe box. The 11's off Amazon were no different in price from the actual store so I ordered from the store. Though the box from Dr.Marten's reads 11, the inside is a 10 much like the Amazon boot. The difference is that I can comfortably wear what was sent from the official website. See photos, but the material of the boots from Amazon are different from that of the actual store. The Amazon shoe has polished and much tougher leather (doesn't really move even when pressing with my fingers). The Amazon shoes did not come with any tissue inserts or cardboard supports. The boots ordered from the Dr. Martens website are a brushed and softer leather. The date of manufacture of Amazon on the inside of the box is 6/3/2022 vs the store at 7/10/2023. Do what you want with this information but wanted to get it out there that the finish and sizing is not the same and that may be a problem for some people. They are a pretty silhouette though! Update: added a final picture because I think was some quality control issue with the pair I got from Amazon. The two shoes are definitely not the same size so I think I might've had some bad luck with my order.

They are absolutely stunning! They look beatiful and flattering, but the best part its that they are really comfortable, i could walk with them for hours. Didnt need to break them, fit really well. They do run a little big, im usually size 7 or 7 1/2, i have wide feet so i didnt listen to the reviews, and bought size 7 as usual. However, if you’re going to use them with thick stockings, for cold weather, and have wide feet like i do, they will be fine. But if you’re not, then probably is better to size down.

These are fabulous, but the size 6 is a size 7. I am a consistent size 7 and don't like a lot of wiggle room in shoes. I also do not like to wear double socks or thick socks with boots. The 6 is perfect and I am glad I didn't go with Amazon's recommended size (7) and sized down. My clogs that are also in the photo are a size 7, for reference.
