Customer Reviews Dr. Martens Monk Strap Shoe

A little stiff at first, but great after two weeks. I wear a 6 and these fit more like a 6 1/2. Bought inserts for them and all is good. Love them! Jeans don't drag the ground any more.

I\'m a teacher and on my feet all day. These shoes are extremely comfortable. I wear thicker socks with them. I\'m usually a women\'s 10, and did not have any trouble with the UK 8 size. I got a pair in black, loved them so much that I bought the tan. I also like their sturdiness, my feet won\'t get wet in a little bit of snow or cold rain.

These shoes are fantastic! They were perfectly sized (7) and required no breaking in period. The first time I put them on they were comfortable. Love them!

The shoe is a strange fit. Since there are no 1/2 sizes I ordered a size 5 uk, but that pair was too small. I then ordered a size 6 uk and this size fits much better, but is a bit too roomy. I ordered these shoes because I am in the restaurant industry and I wanted something comfortable and durable.\r\nI would only order these shoes if you are closer to a whole size.\r\nThey are sharp and funky.

This shoe is so comfortable; it's sturdy on the outside and slipper-like on the inside. I wear a 7.5, but this is only offered in whole sizes so I ordered up to a size 8 and it's perfect because I don't like my shoes too tight and there will plenty of room for a comfy warm sock come winter. In the meantime I've been wearing them without socks (that's how comfortable they are!). I'll probably buy additional pairs. Plus I ordered them one day and had em on my feet by the time I got home from work the next day, which was fabulous! I've been bragging about Zappos to everyone I know and spreading the word about how great their service is.

How long owned: 3 weeks. I bought these shoes for casual wear, but have been wearing them as work shoes every day. At first I was afraid the Doc Martens style was too clunky for business attire (for women), but I don't wear dresses to work and the comfort has changed my mind about what's important. The monk strap allows for movement at the top of the shoe (Doc Marten 3989 I sent back because it felt constricting on top of the foot). The sole is comfortable and it gives me a little height (I'm usually 5' 1"). They are trendy, comfy, and seem to be well made. Most leather shoes are stiff on the feet and take a while to break in. These feel broken in already. I have an 'average' foot, though I sometimes buy 'wide' shoes. The square toe is comfortable and looks better than a rounded toe in my opinion. I will buy this style again. I love these shoes!
