Editorial Reviews

From the Manufacturer
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.

They are pretty nice...4
These are very well made shoes, being Dr Martens. I haven't had a cheaply made pair of shoes from them yet. That said, they are a little small. I usually order an 8 in Docs and they are still usually a little on the big side. But these are a little snug. In fact, the top of the shoe rubs the tops of my toes and so that hasn't been very comfortable obviously! They are breaking in nicely though. However, the leather is high quality (I got them in black), the insert is fairly comfortable so they are a nice shoe.

I got them for $25. I wouldn't really pay $80-90 for these. Wait for a sale.

Design is practical and classic. Now I need to find some doc's in boots that I like
