Help me Choose – Dr. Martens
Since my walking’s got worse I’ve not been able to wear a lot of my favourite shoes one of which is very sadly my favourite pair of red heals my gorgeous pair of Dr. Martens – so I have come to the conclusion I must get myself a pair of flat’s so at least I still have a pair I can wear. This is where you all come in. I don’t know which pair to choose so I want your help!
For anyone who hasn’t heard of Dr. Martens. (Is there anyone who hasn’t?)
They are a collaboration between Doctor Klaus Maetens of Munich and the Griggs family of Northampton.
Comfortable, durable and of course featuring the first air-cushioned sole they are to wear (for me) like walking on air.
The first pair rolled into the shops on the 1st April 1960 and named after the date 1460.
Now more than 50 years later they are just as popular and with their ability to bring out new styles, colours and patterns I can’t see their popularity diminishing any time soon.
And so without further ado here’s what I am thinking:
Dr. Martens – Which Ones?.

Melody – £81
So different from the ‘normal’ Dr. Marten Boots.
Which is, in fact, what draws me to these.
While they are still obviously made by Dr M, they just ooze something a little different going on and I LOVE that about them!

Tana – £105
These call out to me as they are simple and easy to wear. All you need to do is slip them on and off you go.
They still offer the sturdy support of lace-up versions, while having a slightly different look about them.

1460 – £122
Sometimes you can’t beat the originals. So of course I had to include a pair.
However, I thought I would go a bit different when it came to colour, this berry one is just beautiful.
So which one do you think I should go for? Or am I missing out on a perfect pair that you know about and could perhaps kindly show me?






My friend collects dr martens she loves them because they are such good quality and last for years, I like the colour of the Tana boots but also like the Melody boots 🙂
Found this old post when taking a look at your Pinterest, I love Docs! I’m just curious, which did you decide to get? I love the 1460s and have them in the catwalk pattern (grey).
