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).

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.

Edit:

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

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

ebpda9 · 09-30-2002, 02:08 PM

wow, those sond like nice shoes. where can i find them ? i'm kind of tired of hush pupies and all the other crap.

TonitrusEN · 09-30-2002, 02:23 PM

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..

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.

Sometimes you can get them on sale for about $80.

I want some with flames on them..

Check them out here. http://www.drmartens.com/Homepage.asp

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.......
