From the Manufacturer
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 founders 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 (1/4/60). 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.

I bought these boots in January 2010. By March, the leather started tearing away from the sole just behind the toe box. It is now Feb 2011 and the small hole is now almost a 4 inch tear alond the inside of the right boot. I bought these shoes based on their comfort. And it is because they were comfortable that I gave them 2 stars instead of 1. The last pair of boots that I bought, I had them for 7 years before they wore out. These didn't make it 3 months before they started to tear up. I will never own another pair of these boots.

This was one of the two Dr. Marten's I like, and while I would not say that this is the better looking one of those two, this is surely the softer, more comfortable pair. It never caused any trouble from the day one, and it really feels very nice. There is only one problem (as of now) as I see it: the small leather part (buckle(?)) through which the lace passes (after two holes from the top) which seems pretty weak to me, and I am afraid that I would end up tearing it off. Other than that, I like everything about the boot. Though it looks not very photogenic from certain angles, it compensates that by its very comfortable make.

All I can say is I was in extreme pain with my previous shoes and always had to take em off when going through the metal detector. These Doc Martins were recommended to me and boy have they lived up to the recomendations. My Feet, LEgs and Back feel much better when wearing them.
