when breaking in boots I usually double up on socks. inner socks were toesocks to prevent blistering from pinched toes outer socks were thicc (wool, cotton, or poly) calf/knee high work socks. got me through some of the most cheap, blister-blasting boots of my life.
I am old and Dr Martens have been popular my whole life especially here in England, I think I paid £5 for my first pair, back then you could have oxblood/red or black and that was it, also back then probably 1971 all Dr Martens were made in England. The world has certainly changed especially price wise. To break in I highly recommend the wonder balm or dubbin, it really works. Maad threads gives good advice I would say, apart from the not cleaning hers obviously, naughty.
hi! i’m thinking of buying my first pair of docs and the ones that got my attention were the jadons! i don’t know if this is a good choice though because i hear people saying their first pair were more “simple” docs. are they heavy to walk in? and how much taller do the platforms make you? i would love to hear your full opinion on the jadons! im 5’3 so i’m not really worried about height but i’ve been watching videos on docs like crazy cuz i wanna make sure i make a good choice! 💞
personally I would choose jadons over regular 1460's any day! I absolutely love love LOVE my jadons. they are a little bit heavier, but nothing you won't get used to quickly. they make me like 3ish inches taller overall. also look on depop if you want to get a good deal on docs!!!! let me know how you make out, and what you decide on!!❤️✨
Enjoyed your video- mostly always size down in general with leather boots. Docs (same rule) if in doubt still always get them snug- never tight just snug... also you can go to a local (western) store and they can loosen your leather boots they’re always kind to do so. Depending on how loose you want then they can add a device for 24-36 hours... (I worked at boot barn long ago) people would bring in their working doc- twisted ex steel toe- red wings- etc. don’t be scare to get snug leather boots weather combat, punk rock, western, working boots. Always can loosen leather :) Awesome video. Great tips
thank you for sharing your tips and experience!!! its always so helpful for people, because basing your shoe off a sizing chart can be really hard. Thank you again!❤️
Just got my first pair today. I've got reeeaally small feet, a UK size 3, very narrow and with high arches. After some time in the shop, we were able to find a pair that worked, they were the 1460 Pascal Virginia boots made from a really soft leather, so they're nice and comfortable. Just needed to add some heel grips and they should be great with some thick socks. So excited to wear them!
Update they're broken in now and comfy. Well, they didn't need the typical 'breaking in' like other Docs do, but they gave me blisters for a while, but now they don't, and I can't get enough of them!
Thank you so much for these important information! This video really helped especially for someone who just got into Dr. Martens for awhile. Now I know what to look for and which type to buy.
@@Maadthreads this is such an old comment, but i’m looking into buying and i’m a 5/5.5 in women’s so close to your size and was wondering what size kids doc’s you wore? i think a kids 4/5 would likely fit based on measuring and other kids shoes i’ve worn but wasn’t sure as i know from experience kids shoes can sometimes fit perfect in the size expected and other times they’re wildly different! and i know some kids boots can be TINY around the ankle though with these being actual lace ups that should likely not be too big of a deal
@@ren-fz7gk they probably make me about 3 inches taller! & i absolutely love them, the platform is very bold (i got white) and heavy at first but i wear them almost everyday :) def recommend them.
My first pair were the shoes ten plus years ago now. The ex convinced me to give them a try. My second pair I bought early this year. I went all out and bought premium, limited edition made in England 1460s. I absolutely love wearing them more than I imagined. Now, I'm just wondering what kind of boots to buy next. Probably another quality brand. Decisions, decisions.
Just bought my first Jaden's today! The employee working at the store recommended some thick socks to combat the blisters and any other friction from the boots. They also said to leave the boots un zipped and the tongue loose when not wearing them so it doesn't maintain the memory of it's factory new tightness. Aside from that, super comfy and empowering 👍
I bought my oxblood red 1460 pair about a year ago and still enjoying it to this day. I love to wear it with my 6-pocket military type shorts because the shorts make the boots fully visible and it's a head turner wherever I go.
I just ordered a vegan pink/lavender vegan 1460 off of Zappos. This is my seventh pair. I am so excited. I also have the crazy horse in black and brown, the vegan 1461, the Mary Janes in burgundy, and the Blaires. I am having the most difficult time breaking in the Blaries because they're patent leather.
Hi! Short story: I found you through a comment you left on Katie Steckly's account about copyright and audio, then clicked on this video and watched the whole thing, then wrote notes about things to look up. I thought - what the hell is Dpop.. now I have homework.
Hi!! Thank you so much for coming over to my channel ❤️❤️ Depop is fantastic! It’s an app where you can shop second hand from other sellers. Hope you find something good!
A german health shoe by origin, invented by a german physician named Dr. Klaus Märtens, patent aquired by an english shoemaker Company, made in to an affordable everyman's work boot, than having become a symbol of anticulture. A fascinating life storry.
I really love the leona heeled boots. i have put off buying them because of the price but i have changed my mind and decided to go for it. Saving up to buy them soon.
Dr. Martens were developed by the German doctor Klaus Märtens (hence the name). He started developing the shoes in 1947 with his business partner Funck near Munich. The shoes quickly became popular, so that Märtens and Funck opened a factory in Munich in 1952. It was not until the 59s that Bill Griggs, managing director of the shoe manufacturer R. Griggs & Co, acquired a production licence from Märtens and Funck.
I got the canvas material floral ones as a gift years ago and I wore them once because they were the wrong size. Hoping I’ll be able to find them a loving home since they’re awesome , but my other 1460/pascal style docs are 7 and the ones I was given are a 6. Now I’ve been hunting for the Molly in a specific color and whenever I find the pair I want, they are sold out in my size 😹 can’t win.
Thanks for this informativ video!!! I ordered the 1460 bex and im soo excited for them! I got the talib ones as well and im a EU 42 but they are a little bit loose so i got the 1460 in a EU 41 and i hope that they fit me!
@Maadthreads currently struggling to get them broken in xD warm summer weather is not helping But its the most beautiful shoes I've ever owned and I WILL have them ready for fall
I have the 1460 pascal virginias as my first pair, since i wanted the soft leather for my first ones. I absolutely love them and they are sooo comfy! I just got the 1461 bex shoes on a whole 50% off and i am sooo exited for them!!!
I want to get the pascal ones aswell for my first pair. I’m usually a US 7 so do you recommend sizing down? I’ve tried them but a 7 is too loose on the heel and the 6 is very snug and a little bit loose on the heel so idk if they will stretch overtime :/
@@Alessandra-pc8qc hm i got my true size and they fit me well, but I’m sure they will stretch a bit since the leather is softer. I have only had them for a couple of months though, so I’m no expert!
i agree with you regarding size. the stiffer leather, size up. the softer leather is more true to size. you need to try on the exact style and type of leather, to know the fit before buying online
Question: when you’re breaking in docs, where do you feel the most tightness? I just got my first pair, white 1460s and I can’t tell if they’re too small or it will loosen up over time. They feel tight where the laces start and behind my heel. Idk if I should return and get a size up or keep them
I find that they are tightest where the laces begin! But if they are tight at the heel, they may be too small. Usually if they fit correct, there is no discomfort in the heel!❤️ hope this helped you out!
My first pair was 30+ years ago. Of course, everyone had the black color. A few years later got a brown pair. I'm ready to get some more Docs. I loved them then and love them now. Coolest Boots Ever Made!!!
normally I wear a 7 in flat shoes (6.5 in heels) and got a 5 in my jadons. tried them on in store, otherwise I would've never known to size down so much!
I really want my first pair of docs but am normally seizing EUR41 but wanting a jayden i'm really confused on which seize to get orrh and i'm in Cameroon so possibly of retail
I’m thinking of finally getting the jadons! I have the 1460 in a size 7 but whenever I tried on the Jadon size 7 in store, they were way too big! I tried on size 6 and they fit right, with my big toe touching the top with thick socks on. I know you said Jadon fit bigger but I’m scared of getting the 6 and they end up being smaller than I thought 🙃 should I still get the 6? I wish they have half sizes! 😩
After watching this video I ran to my nearest store because I was really ready to get mine I decided to get a pair of 101 6 eye boots as I wanted a simple pair to wear when wanting to look casual but not too casual and ended up buying the all black ones if anybody seeing this does get a pair I will say get a size bigger I'm usually a size 6 but got a size 7 as I'm in the stage of childhood where my feet are rapidly growing
I'm glad I've found this channel! 🤗 I'm size 5 too. I ordered online 1460 Pascal Classico Leather Lace Up Boots in size US 5. I'm wondering if I made the right choice, although I've always wanted my shoes to have an extra space atleast half size but was thinking size US 6 might be too big. I just wanna know if size US 5 fits just right or do you think it still has a little space in it making it atleast 5.5 which I do prefer 🤔 Thanks! 🤗
@@Maadthreads i got a pair of kinda blueberry color ones at a second hand shop. They look really shiny cant tell if they are leather they are the 8 eye 1460s . trying to make sure they are legit . they are made in Taiwan and most fakes are made in china. Any info would be appreciated thanx.
hi! im thinking about ordering a pair of the 1460’s online since i cant try them on in person and since im a size 9.5 with slightly wider feet do you think i should go with a 9 or 10?
So I’m a USA woman’s size 8.5 but in docs I’m a 9 (a EU 41.5 , UK 7.5 or 26 cm) I tried them on on a shop and walked around with them to see how they felt , at first I tried 8 US size and omg my feet hurt a lot! So I went a size up and I felt all right and very comfy , I hope by next year I can buy my very first docs as I’m already saving up from them but sadly in my country they are expensive like hell! , thanks for all the tips!
I have the 1460s and I'm an 8 in those but I want to get the 1461s they don't sell them anywhere near me so I can't try them on is the sizing the same?
get them!!!! I got one of the Keith Haring pairs a few days ago and they’re my absolute favorites. super comfy and look super nice!! if you can fit into the youth sizes I highly recommend it bc they’re easier to break in and are SUPER comfy out of the box, and they’re cheaper!!!
Wow great video! I would love to know your opinion about the Dr Martens 1460 Sparkle or if you own a pair with the same type of material? Is the durability comparable to that of the classic 1460? Thank you so much!
Thank you for watching! if you take a look at my Dr. Martens collection, I own a vegan 1460 chrome pair, with a very similar material to the 1460 sparkle. They just aren't AS sparkly! I would say the shoe is still very durable, but it is more prone to scratches and scuffs that don't really come off. so if you aren't into the "worn" docs look, id stick to one with a smooth or matte finish! any of the chrome or sparkle patent leather ones can scratch quick! I hope this helped❤️✨
@@Maadthreads Immensely, thanks again! I am planning to buy my first online and they were selling the sparkle for 56% off. I cannot seem to find proper reviews online so you were a really big help 💙
They’re usually always tight when you first get them. I’m usually a 7.5 or an 8 but I got a 7 and the length is perfect. If they’re tight, you can break them in usually.
Thank you for the corrections!! I appreciate it so much. I basically went off of what I was told in a DMs store in NYC. Definitely should have done more research!!
@@Maadthreads maybe that is it's history in America. Have you scene the film, This is England, or the tv show, This is England 83? That was the english skinhead, punk scene. czcams.com/video/ltjQzMGd6r0/video.html
I got my first pair in late April on my birthday, I got the 1461 and god they are tough to break in. Still love them with all my heart tho they’re so cute
ive bought the jadon ones im male i wear 43 normally but when i recived em they were awfull big looking for my body type so i decided to send em back but the problem is which size is better if i am in between 42-43? is there a big difference if id get me the 42 size ones? i dont know
Hi, so I'm a us 5.5 in kids for Air Force ones and Im not sure If I should get a 5 or 6 in doc Martens in the big kid sizes. what do you think I should get??
What about Japan sizes? its in centimeters. So if I wear Nike Airforces size EU44 (that is 28 cm) do you think Doc Martens Jadon in size EU45 (also 28 cm) will be good?
I really want to have the hello kitty doc martens but they only place I could fin them on eBay do you think it’s Save to buy them there Love the video btw was really really helpful ❤️
hi Madison!! im getting the 1460 smooth leather lace up and im not sure about which size should i get, im a european 36-37 and i want a little bit of room to grow! which size would u recommend? :)
Ugh I want those ones SO badly!!! I have the 1461 bex which is the most similar pair I have to those, and they are a little tough to break in but once you do, they are amazing!
Hey! I'm planning to buy Pascal Virginia Black for my first pair. I usually wear a US Size 6 for Sperrys and 6.5 for Nikes. What is your recommended sizing, am I going for US 6 or 7 since they don't have half sizes and my toes are on the wider side?
I'm US 5 and I ordered 1461 SEX PISTOLS LEATHER PRINTED OXFORD SHOES and a Voss sandals. This will be my first ever docs shoes. I ordered my exact size and I don't know if it will fit. We don't have any Dr. Martens physical store here in my place. 😭😭😭😭
I think if you ordered your exact size, you will be alright! please keep me posted on how you like them, and send me some pics on instagram!! id love to see them!❤️✨
so glad i found your video! & v helpful that we have the same shoe size :) i wear a european 35 so this got me paying attention to the different styles :3
Hi I was wondering if the jadons are hard to walk in. I’m 5’5’’ almost 5’6” and I want them for the Grungy platforms! I think they will look super cool once broken into but I don’t want them to be uncomfortably heavy or hard to walk in. And if I were to get them off the docs website or journeys, do you think I should size down to 7 if I’m a true 8?
Hi!! They definitely aren’t too too hard to walk in, you will adjust very quickly! They look super cool. I would say if you are a true 8, 7 may be tight, but I’m not sure! I would recommend trying them on if possible ❤️
I got my first pair last xmas (2020) I got the shriver hi 8 & I love them but Im looking to get my second pair soon something a little more comfortable for an everyday wear.
I say wear what makes you happy! If you are a woman and like wide shoes, that’s totally fine. If you don’t, that’s fine too. It’s all about personal preference!❤️
OMG tysvm for that video. Luv it. I'm on the fence about keeping my 1460 patent leather docs. Do I break them in the same way as leather or is there a different process? Thanks again for making this video
Hi I'm buying online and on the store online it says 9.21" is a 5 but my feet are size 9-9.5 and they are 9.2" I'm buying Jadon Pisa leather platforms so I'm really confused
Ahhh the chart I read said that a 5 is a 36, yet some of them say 38! so thank you for the correction! and yes, 1460's out of the box can be suuuuper stiff! I hope you have been able to break them in alright! sending love!❤️
Does anyone recommend buying the thick socks from the Docs website? Are they worth it? Do you think they'd help with the breaking-in process and even good to wear after they've been broken in?
I think any sort of thick sock is great for breaking docs in! And you can definitely wear them after you break the docs in, especially in colder months!
I love how you look like the beautiful girls from the 1960’s , thanks for helping me getting my new pair.
thank you! Happy to help!
when breaking in boots I usually double up on socks.
inner socks were toesocks to prevent blistering from pinched toes
outer socks were thicc (wool, cotton, or poly) calf/knee high work socks.
got me through some of the most cheap, blister-blasting boots of my life.
and make sure the toesocks are relatively thin!
awesome tips! thanks so much for sharing!❤️

Size 4 or 5...why don’t you just buy it from the kids section?? Like the 1460 costs $150 in men and women size but they’re only $80 in kids
i mean i’m a kid🧍♀️
i might be wrong but i think they use softer leather for the kids, so they will fall apart easier

I find that they are tightest where the laces begin! But if they are tight at the heel, they may be too small. Usually if they fit correct, there is no discomfort in the heel!❤️ hope this helped you out!
well, normally, if they feel extremely tight it probably means that breaking them in won't help, and you have the wrong size.

My first pair was 30+ years ago. Of course, everyone had the black color. A few years later got a brown pair. I'm ready to get some more Docs. I loved them then and love them now. Coolest Boots Ever Made!!!
💘💘💘💘
normally I wear a 7 in flat shoes (6.5 in heels) and got a 5 in my jadons. tried them on in store, otherwise I would've never known to size down so much!
It’s so wild how much different brands and shoe styles vary in size! So glad you were able to try them on💜
I have no idea if they ship to India?!?!
Ooh I’m not sure! Check the website!💗
I have both The Jadon white and Jadon white max 2 of the Jadon max ( black) oxblood red
Those are all some of my faves! Great collection ❤️
im a size US 11 (female), and im thinking about buying the jadons, what size would you recommend? thankyou!
Try on your size first, and go from there!💕
I really want my first pair of docs but am normally seizing EUR41 but wanting a jayden i'm really confused on which seize to get orrh and i'm in Cameroon so possibly of retail
Awesome review thanks for sharing from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you so much for watching and supporting!❤️
I also have the sinclaire hi max platform boots
Those are great!!!💗
I am 7.5 Wide- a size 8 is good 👍🏼
Thanks for the info!!!❤️✨🤩
If you live near a cobblers you should get your tight dr martens stretched. I sized down and got mine stretched and they fit so well now
That is such a great idea, I never knew you could do this! Thank you❤️
Ty for the info, so excited to buy my first pair
Yayy! So excited for you. Which ones are you considering?🫶🏻
The first person with my shoe size!!! Finally!!!
Omg yesss!!!! 😂❤️
It Started in Germany. That the German sold it to an English company
I’m thinking of finally getting the jadons! I have the 1460 in a size 7 but whenever I tried on the Jadon size 7 in store, they were way too big! I tried on size 6 and they fit right, with my big toe touching the top with thick socks on. I know you said Jadon fit bigger but I’m scared of getting the 6 and they end up being smaller than I thought 🙃 should I still get the 6? I wish they have half sizes! 😩
I wish they had half sizes too ugh!!! I would say get a 6, because jadons tend to rub a bit larger! Good luck✨💕
After watching this video I ran to my nearest store because I was really ready to get mine I decided to get a pair of 101 6 eye boots as I wanted a simple pair to wear when wanting to look casual but not too casual and ended up buying the all black ones if anybody seeing this does get a pair I will say get a size bigger I'm usually a size 6 but got a size 7 as I'm in the stage of childhood where my feet are rapidly growing
I hope you are loving your new boots? Thanks for the tips!❤️
this video was soo helpful and you are pretty thank you !!!!
You are so so sweet! Thank you for the support angel❤️✨🥺
I'm glad I've found this channel! 🤗 I'm size 5 too. I ordered online 1460 Pascal Classico Leather Lace Up Boots in size US 5. I'm wondering if I made the right choice, although I've always wanted my shoes to have an extra space atleast half size but was thinking size US 6 might be too big. I just wanna know if size US 5 fits just right or do you think it still has a little space in it making it atleast 5.5 which I do prefer 🤔 Thanks! 🤗
hey! so sorry I never got to this comment, what did you wind up going for?❤️
@@Maadthreads i got a pair of kinda blueberry color ones at a second hand shop. They look really shiny cant tell if they are leather they are the 8 eye 1460s . trying to make sure they are legit . they are made in Taiwan and most fakes are made in china. Any info would be appreciated thanx.
hi! im thinking about ordering a pair of the 1460’s online since i cant try them on in person and since im a size 9.5 with slightly wider feet do you think i should go with a 9 or 10?
1460's can be pretty true to size, but since you have slightly wider feet I would recommend the 10! Not 100% sure tho!
@@Maadthreads what's about 1461? I'm wearing a size 8 us and i should get 41 eur (8us) or 40 eur (7us)? Help meee, please
So I’m a USA woman’s size 8.5 but in docs I’m a 9 (a EU 41.5 , UK 7.5 or 26 cm) I tried them on on a shop and walked around with them to see how they felt , at first I tried 8 US size and omg my feet hurt a lot! So I went a size up and I felt all right and very comfy , I hope by next year I can buy my very first docs as I’m already saving up from them but sadly in my country they are expensive like hell! , thanks for all the tips!
Glad you love the shoes so much and found a size that fits you!!!! Thank you so much for watching this video❤️
I had my first pair when I was 3. 43 years later I’m thinking about getting my second pair 😊
Amazing! Do let us know which pair you pick!
hey my feet is really small too WHERE CAN I GET A US 4 for jadons i cannot find it anywhere
Depop would be your best bet but I’m not sure they exist at this time! They have a juniors section on the site and I don’t see any jadons :/
So I was gonna buy the low doc martens and I’m a size 7 should I size up or down or get a 7
if you are a true 7, stick to size 7! ❤️
I have the 1460s and I'm an 8 in those but I want to get the 1461s they don't sell them anywhere near me so I can't try them on is the sizing the same?
I love your personality omg! First time on your channel hehe. I think I’m gonna buy the Keith Haring edition as my first pair but I’m still debating 😅
get them!!!! I got one of the Keith Haring pairs a few days ago and they’re my absolute favorites. super comfy and look super nice!! if you can fit into the youth sizes I highly recommend it bc they’re easier to break in and are SUPER comfy out of the box, and they’re cheaper!!!
@@tweedledeee omg thank you so much for the tip!! I’m still contemplating between the plain black ones and the Keith Haring ones tho😅
thank you so much for the love!!! I hope you love your new docs, whichever you decided!❤️
@@Maadthreads obsessed with them!! Thank you so much for the sweet response 🥰
Wow great video! I would love to know your opinion about the Dr Martens 1460 Sparkle or if you own a pair with the same type of material? Is the durability comparable to that of the classic 1460? Thank you so much!
Thank you for watching! if you take a look at my Dr. Martens collection, I own a vegan 1460 chrome pair, with a very similar material to the 1460 sparkle. They just aren't AS sparkly! I would say the shoe is still very durable, but it is more prone to scratches and scuffs that don't really come off. so if you aren't into the "worn" docs look, id stick to one with a smooth or matte finish! any of the chrome or sparkle patent leather ones can scratch quick! I hope this helped❤️✨
@@Maadthreads Immensely, thanks again! I am planning to buy my first online and they were selling the sparkle for 56% off. I cannot seem to find proper reviews online so you were a really big help 💙
Loved this video! So I’m planning to buy the Jadon docs, I’m a size 7.5, do you recommend getting a size 7 or 8?
8 because they are tight
They’re usually always tight when you first get them. I’m usually a 7.5 or an 8 but I got a 7 and the length is perfect. If they’re tight, you can break them in usually.
The punk scene was late 70s and early 80s which was when DMs became big.
Thank you for the corrections!! I appreciate it so much. I basically went off of what I was told in a DMs store in NYC. Definitely should have done more research!!
@@Maadthreads maybe that is it's history in America. Have you scene the film, This is England, or the tv show, This is England 83?
That was the english skinhead, punk scene.

I got the jadon boots but my first toe is touching the front of the shoe😅Is that normal? Will they stretch out?
They may! But it’s also possible that they are a size too small 😩
Hello which model of your 1461 ?
I’m a size EUR 38 and I’m planning on getting the jadon boots but I don’t know if I should get a US 7 or 8
My first pair is gonna be the mollys from the online store sale they have rn here in germany
ooooh I love those!! excited for you❤️
I got my first pair in late April on my birthday, I got the 1461 and god they are tough to break in. Still love them with all my heart tho they’re so cute
They definitely take some time but it will be worth it!💗
@@Maadthreads exactly!
I’m usually a US women’s 11 and I ordered an 11 jadon pair, I reallyyyy hope they’re not way to big on me
I think you’ll be okay! If they are too big just grab an insole for them!💗💗💗
im a size UK 5, i csnt deal with pain and im like 14 so we just got a size 6 so i could keep them longer and no breaking in 😌
Good idea!!!! Which style did you get?
ive bought the jadon ones im male i wear 43 normally but when i recived em they were awfull big looking for my body type so i decided to send em back but the problem is which size is better if i am in between 42-43? is there a big difference if id get me the 42 size ones? i dont know
Hi, so I'm a us 5.5 in kids for Air Force ones and Im not sure If I should get a 5 or 6 in doc Martens in the big kid sizes. what do you think I should get??
if i’m a size 6 in womens.. should i get a 4? is that how it works with ordering the Jordons?
There's a summer sale for docs right now btw!
OMG great to know!!!!! Thank you for this🤩
@@Maadthreads you're welcome you can get any 2 pairs for $80
What about Japan sizes? its in centimeters. So if I wear Nike Airforces size EU44 (that is 28 cm) do you think Doc Martens Jadon in size EU45 (also 28 cm) will be good?
Hi, I wanted to know about sizing for the sinclair docs.
I really want to have the hello kitty doc martens but they only place I could fin them on eBay do you think it’s Save to buy them there
Love the video btw was really really helpful ❤️
Thank you for watching! You should definitely look on Depop, they have a ton and it’s probably safer to buy them there❤️
Maad Threads thx ❤️
I'm a size 8 mens in vans, what size do you recommend I get for 1461's?
A size 7 worked great for anyone wondering :)
@@lui_lui4988 i’m a size 8 in vans too, do you think the sizing would be the same for 1460s?
@@haileigh816 I’m sure they’ll fit fine, just use thick socks
thank you for following up on this!❤️
So in vans (men/youth) I’m a 5.5 and in women I’m a 7.5. I have no idea what size to get and I can’t go go the store either:(
This was super helpful! Thanks so much!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
hi Madison!! im getting the 1460 smooth leather lace up and im not sure about which size should i get, im a european 36-37 and i want a little bit of room to grow! which size would u recommend? :)
I really wanna buy the 8053 quad shoes😍have you tried them and are they easy to break in?
Ugh I want those ones SO badly!!! I have the 1461 bex which is the most similar pair I have to those, and they are a little tough to break in but once you do, they are amazing!
Hello! Very good information. I want to buy my first pair, with platform. II wear 35.5 in European size. Which is us 4 in European size???
i love pascal virginia. it is a soft leather kind.. highly recommended for doc beginners
yes!! very easy to break in. thanks for sharing!
Hey! I'm planning to buy Pascal Virginia Black for my first pair. I usually wear a US Size 6 for Sperrys and 6.5 for Nikes. What is your recommended sizing, am I going for US 6 or 7 since they don't have half sizes and my toes are on the wider side?
it never hurts to size up! if they are too big, you can always get an insole which will help with comfort as well as proper sizing!❤️
I'm US 5 and I ordered 1461 SEX PISTOLS LEATHER PRINTED OXFORD SHOES and a Voss sandals. This will be my first ever docs shoes. I ordered my exact size and I don't know if it will fit. We don't have any Dr. Martens physical store here in my place. 😭😭😭😭
I think if you ordered your exact size, you will be alright! please keep me posted on how you like them, and send me some pics on instagram!! id love to see them!❤️✨
@@Maadthreads oh sure. Thank you. 😘😘😘
so glad i found your video! & v helpful that we have the same shoe size :) i wear a european 35 so this got me paying attention to the different styles :3
Yayy that’s amazing! So glad the video was helpful for you🦋💖
Hi I was wondering if the jadons are hard to walk in. I’m 5’5’’ almost 5’6” and I want them for the Grungy platforms! I think they will look super cool once broken into but I don’t want them to be uncomfortably heavy or hard to walk in. And if I were to get them off the docs website or journeys, do you think I should size down to 7 if I’m a true 8?
Hi!! They definitely aren’t too too hard to walk in, you will adjust very quickly! They look super cool. I would say if you are a true 8, 7 may be tight, but I’m not sure! I would recommend trying them on if possible ❤️
@@Maadthreads
Okay thank you so much!!!
I got my first pair last xmas (2020) I got the shriver hi 8 & I love them but Im looking to get my second pair soon something a little more comfortable for an everyday wear.
That is awesome! Great starting pair. I'd recommend the classic 1460s for your second pair! thank you for watching love ❤️
The mary Jane 8065 is quite wide for a women shoe
I say wear what makes you happy! If you are a woman and like wide shoes, that’s totally fine. If you don’t, that’s fine too. It’s all about personal preference!❤️
OMG tysvm for that video. Luv it. I'm on the fence about keeping my 1460 patent leather docs. Do I break them in the same way as leather or is there a different process? Thanks again for making this video
It’s fairly similar! Just wear them as much as you can and wear thick socks for sure! Sometimes the patent can be a little more stiff ✨
Hi I'm buying online and on the store online it says 9.21" is a 5 but my feet are size 9-9.5 and they are 9.2" I'm buying Jadon Pisa leather platforms so I'm really confused
I would go off of the size only. I am not sure what they other numbers mean, so if you are a 9-9.5, I would get the 9!❤️❤️❤️
@@Maadthreads Thank you very much!!!!
Dear us 5 is eu 38 not 36. I got finally pair of patent 1460 black docs.. But they are soooo stiff
Ahhh the chart I read said that a 5 is a 36, yet some of them say 38! so thank you for the correction! and yes, 1460's out of the box can be suuuuper stiff! I hope you have been able to break them in alright! sending love!❤️
Does anyone recommend buying the thick socks from the Docs website? Are they worth it? Do you think they'd help with the breaking-in process and even good to wear after they've been broken in?
I think any sort of thick sock is great for breaking docs in! And you can definitely wear them after you break the docs in, especially in colder months!
Hey!! What are the best shoes that go with uniform?!
Depends on what your institution allows, but i would say the 1461’s ❤️✨
I’m wanting to get the Mary Janes, I’m usually a size 7. What size do you recommend I get?
I would recommend sticking with a size 7, but I have never tried on the Mary Janes so I can’t be sure! I’d recommend trying them on if you can❤️
thank u for this video!!
Thank you so much for watching!❤️
