First pair of Docs help

Im looking to get my first pair of Doc Marten Boots and I've heard that the 1460s are the most popular but are also so expensive and a pain to break in, so after countless researching i've boiled it down to either the 1460 Nappa, 1460 Ambassador or the 1460 Greasy. I want something that is suitable for Texas weather ( usually hot and muggy and rainy) but also long lasting and durable.

Size help for someone who can’t return shoes </3

I’m really interested in buying the new flowers mary janes that were released recently (in the pic) but I don’t know what size to buy
I don’t have a doc martens store in my country so I will be ordering it through an international mail shipping service so I won’t be able to return it if i get the wrong size

I’m usually size 37-38, I usually get away with 37.5 but they don’t sell half sizes unfortunately, would the shoes get looser if I buy 37 and it turns out they’re too tight?

I’m gonna mention my size in a few other shoes if it helps finding out what the better fit is:

converse: 37.5 and there’s a bit of room so I can do w 37 too
Puma palermo: 37
Nike: 37.5

Please help :((

Is this repairable?

I was gifted a pair of docs and I love them but I’m noticing small cracks in the leather due to my lack of taking care of them. Are they able to be saved ?

Help identifying these boots!

Bought these at a thrift store today, and I’m having some trouble identifying them/ finding any info online about them! Any leads would be appreciated, thanks!

Prevent further damage?

Any way to prevent it from growing? Shoo-glue or superglue? I feel like it’s in a part that flexes too much for any glue to stick

Identify these

Bought these at a thrift store a few years ago in England.
Wondering what they are I believe they are the electric blue color. Does anyone know what year they are from and any other detail details about them

New Made in England Gibsons with C.F. Stead leather

Picked up the Made in England Gibsons that are made with C.F. Stead leather. Nice pairing against my Horween leather MIE 1460’s. This leather is more rigid than the Horween, and it marks easily…but the color is awesome and the leather almost looks like suede. Nice grab for $125 and free shipping! Have about 20 pairs with all but 2 being Made in England.

Dr martens 1461 fake?

Vinted mi ha bloccato l’account definitivamente per prodotto contraffatto. Io avevo comprato le dr martens da Amazon, di cui ho regolare fattura. Vi allego le foto che avevo anche messo nell’inserzione. Secondo voi per quale motivo hanno pensato che fossero contraffatte?

Alt Colorway Help??

excuse the very quickly scribbled color edit but fear i'm going insane -- i swear to god there was an alt colorway of the nina patchwork boots from the 90s (if menory serves); they were purpley, greeny, blue/black. I cannot find ANY photos (i'm sure the boots themselves are rare, but no photos is baffling me). anyone have at least photos of these or did i dream them up?

Update from the guy who got scammed

I bought a couple of buzz platform loafers from a scam website that claimed to be Dr Martens Airwair, and everything was 80% off. I never received those shoes, and nothing happened to my card. But I did end up getting these white boots for about $15 on Depop (made in Vietnam) and these black boots from the Netherlands for $45 (made in England). I’m really happy with them, especially the black boots. They’ve accompanied me all over the world!

What boots are these two?

Hello! I came onto this subreddit because I was gifted these two pair of doc martens years ago and I was curious to try to find them again online because they’re really cool and wanted to see how much they are selling for but couldn’t find any of these two anywhere online. Does anyone know if these are real doc martens or fake? I cannot find these anywhere

Possible mending?

I've had this pair of Doc Martens for about 4 years and unfortunately the sole is starting to break and there's holes where the leather creases at the heel (you can see my white sock showing through).

Do you think there's any way I can get them repaired? Or is it a lost cause? :(

New docs pair buzz eye 5

Third pair. I need to stop here it’s addicting.

I’ve just worn this twice and I wanna get the panther and pink ones too!

This pair is actually so comfy I didnt need to break them in. A little heavy at first try but I wore it and walked the whole day and it wasn’t as bad as I thought, didn’t hurt at all. I sized down 1 size if anyone would ask. I went to journeys to fit sizes then ordered them on amazon because I couldn’t wait till my next town trip. Glad I did because i wouldve gotten the size wrong if i didnt try them before ordering. I’m a 6 in mary janes and a 5 in buzz.

Love love love this pair!!
