Description

The 2976 Chelsea boot has all the toughness, fit and ease of use as its Victorian predecessors plus killer style. It serves up all the signature Doc's details like iconic stitching, grooved sides and heel-loops. Built to last, this unisex boot is forged using one of the finest methods of construction: utilizing a Goodyear welt and heat-sealing it to the sole. The 2976 is made with highly durable leather and sits on an AirWair sole, which is oil and fat resistant with good abrasion and slip resistance. Use Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to protect the leather and keep your boots clean, soft and supple. 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.

  • Simple style but runs large
Style: Chelsea Boots Color: Black Vintage Smooth Size: 8
I knew this would run large being unisex and docs so I ordered an 8 (normally an 8.5-9) but it was still about a size too big for me. Love the look so I returned it and will be getting it in size 7. It was very comfortable and didn’t need much breaking into (the first pair) so hopefully the 7 will be the same! Good choice if you’re looking for a simple black boot Chelsea -ish style that will last if it’s in true dr marten style . I’ve bought plenty of (still cute) Amazon boots but tired of them falling about about 3-4 months so decided to bite the bullet and get this especially since I realize how iconic a low black boot is and how it’s such a staple in my closet. Get these ! ... show more

  • Perfect
Style: Chelsea Boots Color: Black Vintage Smooth Size: 9
First of all this is my first pair of Dr. Martens, I love them!! I wore them everyday for about a week to “break them in” and had no issues. I agree with other reviews that say they run a bit big, I usually wear a 9.5 in boots (9 in flats and sandals) so I went with a 9 in these. After a week I noticed because if the slight heel my foot slid toward the front when walking. The insole is a smooth leather and is a bit slippery depending on the sock you wear. I thought about sizing down but was worried I wouldn't have enough room for winter socks. So instead I bought an inexpensive pair of Dr. Scholls inserts, cut them to size, and like magic the problem was solved. I love them even more now and can’t wait to see how long they will last me. ... show more

  • The perfect boot
Style: 2976 Smooth Leather Boot Color: Black Smooth Size: 7 Women/6 Men
Best boots ever!! I had tried the patent leather version and those felt like torture chambers! While these boots are a little stiff, I feel they will be pretty easy to break in. They aren't so stiff they're uncomfortable but if you have wide ankles these won't be for you. I'm a true women's 8.5 and the 7 women/6 men are absolutely perfect. You will not regret this purchase! While I do love the signature yellow stitching, The monochrome look makes them more sleek and flexible and to dress up or down. ... show more

  • Buy them! But a size down
Style: 2976 Ys Color: White Size: 7
Looked at reviews and bought these one size down from my usual. They fit well! A little looser compared to my other women’s docs. But since this is unisex you will have it a little looser. Great quality and comes with box and tag!

  • Dark brown
Style: 2976 Chelsea Boot Color: Gaucho Crazy Horse Size: 8-8.5
I am usually wear size 42 in European. I order 41 that fits well. Required break in period. The biggest concern is, I got dark brown instead of light brown. Amazon customer service is outstanding as usual and fixed my concerns.

  • The sizes in the size selection box are based on Women’s sizes. Beware!
Style: 2976 Smooth Leather Boot Color: Black Smooth Size: 8 Women/7 Men
Got these boots, arrived on time but size was base on Women’s sizes not UK as mentioned in the Q&A section.

  • Wearing every day.
Style: 2976 Chelsea Boot Color: Black Nappa Size: 15 Women/14 Men
Bought these for my husband on his request. He's been wearing them every day. It's hard to find shoes for someone who wears a 14 in a more narrow shoe.

  • Super comfortable
Style: 2976 Chelsea Boot Color: Black Nappa Size: 7
I was a little nervous about buying these just before traveling to Europe for two weeks without breaking them in first. A lot of reviews said they were great AFTER breaking them in. I was pleasantly surprised that they were super comfortable right out of the box.
