## Description

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. On the first of April 1960, the first cherry red eight-eyelet work boot was produced and named 1460. To sell the brand name better in England, the name was anglicized to Dr. Martens. The range was branded AirWair and the rest is history.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    VERY comfortable and still look great
  

*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 10, 2015*

Been wearing these for 3 months now, and have had no problems.  VERY comfortable and still look great.  The "Buttero" finish is what I got, and although it looks good, the finish will flake off a bit where your shoe bends which is why I gave these shoes 4 stars, not 5.  Using black polish will fix the problem, however I wish they did not flake at all.  Other than that, I have been wearing these shoes daily with no issues, and once broken in they feel as comfortable as sneakers. I ordered size 14, and I am 6'2"  300lbs, these have held up very well.  I am not getting the problem with the breaking soles that some are complaining about, however I will update as necessary.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very shiny, but good
  

*by M***0 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 20, 2015*

These shoes are very shiny... almost like patent leather or plastic. They're shinier than my taste but I'd spent quite a while trying to find the perfect pair of Doc Martens to replace my old "Boston" model. I decided to keep them just until I found another black pair with the matte finish but have been wearing them daily for a few weeks now. They fit perfectly and are just so comfortable that I haven't even looked for another pair. I think they're keepers but would really have liked to get the same exact style in an oiled leather, that's why they only get a 4 star review. If you're a fan of shiny plastic looking Docs, these are the ones for you.

### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    These Docs were super cheap compared to buying them directly from manufacturer or ...
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 27, 2016*

I have had these shoes for one year now and I definitely have some issues. These Docs were super cheap compared to buying them directly from manufacturer or one of their stores and that is one reason I made the purchase. I thought I was getting a GREAT deal! I have multiple pairs of Docs and when comparing this set to any of my other pairs, something is just not right. The leather is cracking and the soles seem to be more stiff compared to any other set that I own. I contacted Dr Martens directly and asked them if there was a way to ensure that my shoes are the genuine article so to speak and they informed me on 07/26/2016 via email that they do NOT sell directly to Amazon!! Based on that they can't guarantee that the shoes are genuine and not counterfeit. I have never owned a pair of Docs that did not hold up for multiple years before they really started to show sign of wear. I only wear these shoes to work and I only wear them 2-3 times a week. I work indoors at a computer all day so they get very little wear overall. If you are looking for a new set of Docs then I would highly recommend putting down the extra money and buy directly from Dr Martens. When I contacted Amazon about the issue after receiving the email from Dr Martens they really could not do anything for me except tell me they would look into it. I hope this helps you make a more informed buying decision.
