The Icon 2295 ST is an iconic Wellington pull-on boot. This industrial boot has a steel toe cap, slip resistant sole and has additional insulation that will help protect the wearer against accidental contact with an electrical charge. Available in an extra-wide, generous fit. Dr. Martens is the stuff of legends. 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 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. 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.

Dr. Martens, also known as Doc Martens, Docs, or DMs, has stomped its way into history since 1901. Originally created by Dr. Klaus Maertens, a German soldier who designed a comfortable air-cushioned boot to aid his recovery from a broken foot, the footwear quickly gained popularity. In 1960, the brand we know today was born with the iconic 1460 boot, adopted by British working-class youth and later embraced by various subcultures for its durability and rebellious spirit.
Dr. Martens prioritizes both timeless design and rugged construction. Their shoes are instantly recognizable by their air-cushioned sole, yellow stitching, and utilitarian details. Made with high-quality leather, Dr. Martens boots and shoes are built to withstand years of wear and tear, making them a true investment piece.
This boot is awesome looking and the fact that they are vegan leather and don't stretch and crease like regular leather is a plus ( my old ones creased and tore on each side of each boot) the downside is the awful seam where the tongue of the boot starts. I've had these over a month and they STILL hurt the tops of my feet. Depends on if when I put the boots on , if the seam curls the " leather " and walking around for hours feels like knives stabbing into the tops of your feet. I haven't figured it out yet, But if you can trim that excess leather off I'm sure they would feel ten times better. Also depends on if the top of your foot is taller I guess from what I saw in other reviews ? Either way cool boots. They give me a semi frankenstein realness which makes my goth heart happy-ish. I guess I can deal with crucified feet after a long day at work. Lol
Nice love them
I ended up returning these bc they are too bulky for FL weather imo. I tried them out for my Chicago trip with “try before you buy” and they were so amazing for Illinois weather! I wore these in the airport and taking them off/putting them on was a breeze. I think I’ll buy them when it gets cooler in FL… but I’ll most likely just buy a pair that are lighter. The boots are heavy but they are comfortable. I really enjoyed them, I’d say they were broken in by the 6th day I wore them in a row. They are so beautiful and easy to dress up and down. I recommend them. They could work in FL weather but I prefer a lighter boot for myself. 🤭
I'm normally a 7&1/2 to 8 but got the 7. They fit snug but comfortably! No major movement in my shoe which is nice bc i cant imagine the blisters from a wobbly shoe.Also love the vegan leather! Its not as flashy as some of the polished leather which is nice bc i love the shape of docs but never have loved the yellow stitching and shiny boots, so this was perfect. Also don't like wearing real leather or fur products anyway.Ive been wearing the boots all day so far and haven't noticed any discomfort as well!Update: its like 3 hours later and i walked another mile or so within that time so my heels are hurting, the blisters are bad. Will break in eventually thoAnother update! I've worn them about 5 times now with two pairs of socks on, helped the blister issue immensely and they are just about broken in
This shoe has held up very well! The package came on time and the box had not issues. The color is great and it is a true fit (didn’t need a size larger or smaller). The only issue we have had is breaking them in, they are stiff and after having them for a while they still look great but are not broken in! Maybe there’s a trick idk.
The sizing is off I wear 9 I ordered 8 1/2 I should have ordered an 8. But they do look beautiful you won’t be disappointed
I love the aesthetic of these but they seem to rub a sore spot on certain parts of my feet.
The all black, matte finish is so unique; I’ve gotten lots of compliments already. They not quite as “loud” as other styles. The tall platform is awesome. Don’t think you’re compromising with the vegan leather; you’re not. The material looks like leather, and I can tell they’re going to hold up just as well with regular Docs. I’m normally a woman’s 7 and ordered the Euro size 6 and they well.
