Best Feature: Classic, timeless, rugged as neat and def gets the work done. Worth the price even if it's NOT made in England, as the old/vintage ones were. Hello, it's been decades. Let's face it. Worst/Confusing Feature: Is not the boot itself BUT the sizing. I wear a regular 7.5 for flipflops/sandals, 8 for closed shoes/sneakers, 9 for all nikes/boots. As if it's not confusing enough, almost every review mentions how the sizing is either "too big...or too small". It will test your instincts if you can only buy stuff online. Personal Fit: With hiking socks, size 8 fit like a glove AFTER a bit of struggle to slide the forefoot in. After a few hours of a jolly kitchen and living room hiking, no longer felt stiff on the toe part. With any boot with no zippers, you need Herculean arm strength to take it off, esp when the calves are not wide like most rain boots. Other info: NOT waterproof per description. It survived a sprinkle only because they're easy to run with. Grips well on rain and will never test this on oil. Warm if worn with thick socks but that depends how warm warm is for you. It provides complete ankle support. Exactly as pictured BUT less shiny BUT also not matte. Came in with a brand new scent, no wrinkles, perfect brand new condition. Online desc says "Made in USA or Imported". Tag says "Made in Vietnam". It's like saying, "it's made here OR there". Possible Source of Discomfort: Im overseeing chaffing on the inside of calf part as it rubs with any fabric frequently. But only time can tell. It felt uncomfortable without socks and rubbed the calves at every step. Overall: It still lives up to its rep IMO. Worth the hype and price.

Because of a chronic foot condition (surgically resolved club foot), I have to wear shoes that come up above the ankle and have a large enough footwell to fit my orthotics and a brace. It's kind of a shame because I'm only 25, but Doc's have saved me from having to wear much dorkier shoes. At least now I can look somewhat cool! I've been wearing Doc's for years and I have to say the quality is unsurpassed. I've worn the same pair every day for 1 1/2 years and only wore down about 25-30% of the sole. The main issue with so much consistent wear is that the leather stretches out a bit too much, leaving them feeling too big unless I'm wearing thicker socks in the winter. Some people recommend ordering a size down in Doc's so the leather has room to stretch, but I am a true size 8 and I can't imagine the pain that would come with ordering a size 7. If you plan on wearing these often, I recommend buying in your size and getting at least 2 pairs to lessen the effect of stretching the leather over time (if your wallet can take the punch!). These particular Doc's are great because the Nappa leather is smooth and while they're not completely matte, they're not nearly as glossy as Patent leather Doc's. I can get away with wearing these to work coupled with dark, straight leg pants. I don't get as may comments on them as I used to, but it's probably because I seriously wear them every day! They're a great choice if you're looking for a sturdy combat boot that also has some visual appeal.

These Docs are the real deal and came with the correct packaging and quality assurance markings, though they are a different leather than the classic "smooth leather" Docs which may throw some folks off since they'll have a somewhat different look and feel. These are outsourced (the ones I got were made in Vietnam), but that's normal nowadays for baseline-priced Docs. You have to pay quite the premium for the Made in England ones. The soft Nappa leather means your feet will go through a lot less agony breaking these in since they already have a lot more give right out of the box compared to the original smooth leather Docs, though doubling up on socks and putting some moleskins on the back of your heels will still make that first week or so go by a lot more smoothly, and some leather conditioner (whether it's Wonder Balsam or some other alternative) will probably speed things up too. I'm a US women's 8.5. The official website recommends sizing down if you're a half size, and that worked out great for me as the US8/UK6 is a perfect fit. Still, everyone has different feet so expect sizing to be a bit of a gamble unless you're already familiar with how Docs fit for you.

I do wonder how they will wear over time , but at the great sale price I was able to get them at, I figure I’ll be no worse off as I have been with buying a cheap-ish synthetic leather boot every 12 months due to how often the gift recipient wears them. Leather looks good. Has a little texture and is muted black so that will help conceal scuffs. I normally am a 9.5 with a low i step and the 10 leaves a bit of room at toe with a regular weight crew sock and it isn’t tightly around my ankle, but they aren’t meant for me. As such there does not seem to be a need for “breaking in” period. They are pretty light for this style of shoe. Hopefully the gift recipient likes them. Super versatile and love the waterproof/slide proof rubber sole.

Best purchase I've made in a while. Though I was expecting to receive the Smooth leather style, I was (accidentally?) shipped the Nappa leather style, and I'm actually glad I was. The Nappa leather is so perfectly soft and wearable right out of the box. The boots are very comfortable, and only took me a couple days of wearing to really break them in. The bottoms have a great grip to them which helps at my job, and the boots are very stylish and go with every outfit. I even went to a dance club in these puppies and had a great time. I spent a week searching around online for the best price and for which style I should buy. This was the best choice all around. Shipment was extremely fast, I believe I received them in a matter of 3 days with free shipping. Love love love. I may end up purchasing sole inserts because I have juuuuust barely too much wiggle room (but they're still perfectly comfortable as-is.). I ordered a size UK 5 women's, and I generally wear a size 7.5 US women's.

I love the boots but hate that I they dont have a zipper like my other combat boots they took a day to break in so that was awesome I love the matte black my only complaint is I cant just slide them on i almost sent them back because im always in a hurry and cant just slip these on but over all im very satisfied with keeping them. Oh and I had to size down im usually an 8 amd had to send them back to get a size down the 8a were too big

Son hermosas... Tal cual como esperaba, las usaré y actualizaré

These are awesome boots. Was hoping I could deal with them having absolutely no heal height, however I just can’t.. sending them back but recommend for anyone who is looking for a rougher look. Would give 5 stars but they were also a little narrow. But my feet might be just a little wider than norm. I am a true size 8 ordered an 8 and the length was perfect.. hope this helps.

Prodotto arrivato con anticipo rispetto alla data stimata. Comodità garantita e prodotto eccezionale.

Ich bin total begeistert. Die Stiefel sind sehr bequem und sehen toll aus. Größe ist passgenau. Ich kann sie nur weiterempfehlen.

Had them over a year and they're still going strong. They're amazing. They keep your feet warm, they're very reliable, very strong and durable (wearability.) I use them for work and I love them. I will advise you need to wear thick socks until they're bedded in because they will tear the back of your feet apart, so be prepared. The value for money is alot but it is worth it. They are sturdy (stiffness).

I love them

Very good boots.
