Care instructions - Wipe away dirt with damp cloth, ensure shoes are dry then apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam using the sponge applicator

Dr. Martens is the stuff of legends. It all began near Munich, Germany in 1945 when Dr. Klaus Maertens injured his foot in a skiing accident in the Bavarian Alps. To make walking easier during the healing process, he designed a shoe with an air-cushioned sole. Using old rubber tires, he constructed soles that had air trapped within closed compartments. He showed his prototype to his engineer/inventor friend, Dr. Herbert Funck, and together they decided to develop and produce the shoes. Not only did the shoe solve the doctor's immediate problem, but it also started to sell well in Germany. By 1959 the two decided that they needed a company to produce and distribute the shoes, then called Dr. Maertens, in other parts of the world. At first, many manufacturers rejected the concept of an air cushioned sole as a short-lived gimmick. However, the R. Griggs Group, located in the village of Wollaston in England, decided to go along with the idea by creating the first work boot with the revolutionary sole.

So stinkin CUTE!!! OBSESSED!
Let me just say if you are on the fence with the SHRIVER style, go for it. It's feminine while making a bold statement. I am a 7.5 normally, so I ordered a 7 since this is truly a woman's boot. I have ordered a 7m in a different Unisex style (Combs Wyoming), and it was huge. My only complaint is that the Shriver advertise as having the bouncy insoles. While the Combs style did and were super cushy, these DID NOT. You will need to buy some. The price was great compared at the DM official site. A lot said the boot was heavy. It is heavier that some, but once I got them on and walked around, I didn't notice much. Overall, I am happy and will wear these a lot.

Just very Comfortable happy with purchase good fit for me because leather is a little pliable but not soft, thick leather, looking forward to wearing. Usually Wear 8 1/2US WOMEN'S sized down to 8 fits great. These are beautiful so glad I chose them. Fyi, I have a med - narrow heel, I like a wide toe box although the they only slightly taper in front they are just right. Was able to slip on & off by loosening shoe strings. I will be looking for shoe strings that are STURDIER
& a bit longer, ALSO would like Balsam leather conditioner. 👍

These boots are fantastic. Not only are they super cute. Can be dressed up or down but they are incredibly comfortable. I took them brand new on vacation and wore them for 3 days straight. Had a little rub on my heel but did not ever give me a blister. I did put on a compeed blister sticker for a little protection and then never rubbed again. I wear a 9.5 in tennis shoes and 10 in sandals. These fit perfectly in a size 9. Size down. Do not size up. You will not regret this buy.

Some people complain about the weight. I mean they are boots. Of course they are heavier than a shoe. But I did not notice the Weight after about 10 minutes of wearing them. 😅

5.0 out of 5 stars I love these boots
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2022
Size: 7Color: BlackVerified Purchase
These boots are great, I was considering getting myself a pair of platform Doc Martens for a while, and I'm glad I finally splurged.
Pros: The sole is super sturdy and thick but also flexible enough to be comfortable. The leather seems to be decent quality. After having them almost a year, they are due for a polish but that's the majority of the wear and tear they've sustained, they are still in almost new condition.
Cons: The leather takes a while to break in, it is still pretty stiff and I still get a blister at the back of my heel if I walk in them a lot in one day. The laces that come with them are a tiny bit short, I can't lace them up all the way and still make a decent knot, but they are more comfortable to leave the top loop or two without laces anyway.
Overall: definitely my favorite shoes. I'm glad I got the leather version, because these will obviously hold up well over time and look super cool the entire time. They run slightly big but I feel like that's better than being too small, at least I can still wear them, you just might want thick socks.

Super cute boots! I like the chunky heel and it was surprisingly not too uncomfortable. I am short and these boots give me some height. The more you wear and break them in the better. I have feet problems (my toes sometimes feel numb) and these boots were actually more comfortable than my flat Dr. Martens

Love this boot. Beautiful, well balanced classic boot. They are a bit heavy but I got used to them quickly . The leather softened after 3 wears. Fits slightly large so I sized down to 7 instead of my usual 7.5 and I also wear thick sock or 2 pairs of socks. My favorite boots.

Reviewed in Germany on December 13, 2022
Size: 10Color: BlackVerified Purchase
Diese Schuhe machen einen äußerst robusten Eindruck (genäht statt geklebt, nicht wie modische Fakes, die man mittlerweile an jeder Ecke bekommt) und fallen eher groß aus. Ich hoffe, dass die Lebensdauer entsprechen länger ist und der relativ hohe Preis sich amortisiert , denn die Absätze machen ebenfalls nicht den Eindruck, als dass sie irgendwann abbröckeln werden.
Normalerweise rechnet man bei DM damit, dass es lange dauert und vieler Blasenpflaster bedarf, bis sie eingelaufen sind, aber die guten Bewertungen haben mich optimistisch gestimmt, dass dieses Modell die Ausnahme bildet. Und tatsächlich hatte ich bislang keine Probleme, obwohl ich täglich viele Treppenstufen steige und auch den Hund ausführen kann, ohne auf Wanderschuhe umsteigen zu müssen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wie immer klasse.
Reviewed in Germany on December 10, 2022
Size: 7Color: BlackVerified Purchase
Die Schuhe habe ich in meiner gewohnten Dr. Martens Größe bestellt und war etwas unsicher ob sie passen, da einige meinten sie wären schmal geschnitte. Ja sie sind im Vergleich zu Unisex-Modellen schmal geschnitten, weil diese halt Damenschuhe sind und diese sind immer schmaler geschnitten. Als sie kam wurden sie gleich Probe getragen und passen super. Wegen dem doch recht starren Leder hatte ich schon Befürchtungen mir werden Qualen beim einlaufen bevorstehen. Ist ja bei Dr. Martens öfters so. Aber nein nichts. Einfach anziehen und los laufen ohne Probleme. Die doch recht dünnen Schnürsenkel machen keinen haltbaren Eindruck und es sieht auch irgentwie ungewohnt aus. Habe jetzt einfach die Standartschnürsenkel bestellt und eingezogen. Jetzt ist alles zur besten Zufriedenheit.
