Dr. Martens - The shoes

[Racing Rice]

Does anyone have a pair of them? I just got a pair from my brother that he didnt want. I dont know why, they are like brand new, not to mention they arent cheap. Man, I love these shoes. For a dressier shoe they are seriously comfortable. Ive been wanting a pair for a while, but been to cheap to buy a pair. After this pair, I think I will have to spend the money on some more. The other nice part about these shoes is they last for ever (within reason).:yes:

im on my 3rd pair of 16 eye boots, and i have a pair of 8 hole dress shoes made by them. i love these shoes.. they are great for everything. good dress shoes, good work boots, good for chillen in, and ive never worn a pair out. i still have my first pair of boots.. they were kitchen shoes when i was a chef, then i wore them when i'd go camping.. just clean them.. they look almost brand new again! how much did u get them for? cause anything under 100 for boots or 65 for the dress shoes is a steal. i bought 2 pairs of boots at $145... the other 2 were presents.

I paid... Nothing.. My brother gave them to me.. They still look pretty much like new. In the last 2 days I have put more straches in them then he did. lol..

They are the 8-eye brown dress shoes. Which was exactly what I was going to pay about $120 for.:yes:

Edit:

My bad, mine are the 4-eye dress shoe model.:crazy:

Dr. Martens are great. And when they fall apart in about 20 years, you can send them back to the company and get a new pair for shipping/handling. Life time warranty no questions asked.

If you cut them in half with a chain saw they will send you a new pair for about 45 bucks :)

Journey's (dont know if you have those) have a nice selection. They are pricey.. i paid $180 for my boots..

Dude you serious! Thats sweet.. I like them even better now..:D :yes:

Hondaman: Go to the mall. There will probably be atleast one or 2 stores in there that have them. I know Jouneys does for sure.:yes: Sometimes you can get them on sale for about $80.

I want some with flames on them..:D

DAMN!! my oldest ones could turn into dress shoes again... if i can just get the stictching in the sole to fall apart. this would have saved my alot of money if i'd known that

I have two pairs of the boots...one black, one brown...paid $120/each at Journeys and they are the most comfortable (dress??) shoe I've owned (and they go with everything)....I've had the brown pair for about 2 yrs now and they are still like new...if they get scuffed, there's a cleaner that DR. M sells...rub it in, scuffs gone...

You should be able to find it where ever they sell the shoes....I think it cost like $13 for a little can but I've used it consistently for the last 2 years and I still have about half of it left.......
