I love them! I only own one pair, though..
These beautifully crafted magnificent outfit stapels have quite a reputation as being frightfully uncomfortable. Now, im not here to tell you people are lying, im sure they are quite a pain for some, but mine however are the comfiest pair of shoes i have ever owned. Right from the start i had always wanted a pair of Dr Martens, maybe it was the influence of a sister 11 years my senior setting grunge trends as an example, maybe it was just the one thing that i have never seen go out of fashion.
I finally got a pair, im extremely poor ( i hear thats rather chic these days) and could never afford any of my own, so my father was kind enough to bestow a pair of 16 hole, shiny, shiny black dr marten boots for a 19th birthday present. I have never looked back. From the first day it was a dream! i can 100% honestly tell you i have never had a blister from my boots, i wear thick socks or thin socks, it doesn't make any difference! and the weight you become attached to, you start to feel unsafe in any other shoe.
Good Luck!
They are absolutely stunning and durable shoes I am sure. But they are such a pain to walk in... (Though not as big of a pain as heels) And they are heavy too. But I love them because mine are in safety orange and hence less common. I do get a lot of compliments in them. I can bear with them as long as I'm wearing some nice thick socks :)
Doc Martens have become a staple accessory in today's fashion. Though it may not receive the recognition that it deserves, could we consider it a classic yet?
So Doc Martens became the icon for a particular aesthetic and style. Developing and growing to more and more closets, trying to become a statement piece in so many wardrobes. They aren't heels or ballet flats that accentuate the leg, its almost the opposite. Doc Martens are heavy, solid shoes that force you to walk in a different way. Allows a women to announce her presence in any space. Besides a heel (which is expected for a women) what other shoe can do that?
Doc Marten's have become universal, adapting to gender, sizes, styles and even color. With enough creativity, there isn't anything that a pair of Doc Martens couldn't be worn with.
Doc Martens can be found at places like Nordstrom's to thrifting a good pair and paying close to nothing.
The fact that my black Docs are used stands as a testament to their impecable quality. They look fairly brand new, aside from the creases they develop around the ankle from loving use and wear, which really only adds to the visual impact they make.
My one complaint is with the ankle of the boot: I have to wear long socks with my boots or I have to tuck my pantlegs (when applicable) into the boot to avoid the leather material from rubbing my skin raw. They're also a bit difficult to wear during hot days. However, these two little issues don't change my view on my beloved Docs. I can suffer through these little things easily, when it comes to how amazing these boots are. Besides that, I have no idea if the leather-chafing-skin thing is an issue with /used/ Docs, or if it even happens with a brand new pair, anyway. Just keep it in mind if you buy yourself a pair.
not at all girly, but fun to clump around in!!
