Cool boot but there are some things to be aware of. First, they do run on the large side, maybe about half a size. Also, color: if you order black, do not be surprised if they look like a stone grey. Don't assume you got the wrong boot. This is a polish or wax that was added over the darker charcoal/black leather underneath. On the tag attached to the boot, it says to buff it off with a cloth. Creates a cool look, like a two-toned effect.

I've always wanted a sexy pair of Dr. Martens. I've searched high and low for a pair that I would be able to wear to work and the Triumph 1914 are perfect! They are so fierce looking but the ribbon as a shoestring gives it that girly touch. They are so comfortable ( I work in retail all day) and just a dream to look at. I've gotten nothing but compliments since I put them on. Love it! Oh yeah, and one important thing for me, was that I have bigger calves and these are roomy enough that I don't look like I had to try too hard to get them to fit, because they tied just fine for me. :)

I ordered the Black Noir. I just got these boots yesterday. It was a struggle to take them off last night, because I felt like a kid on Christmas that wants to sleep curled up next to their pile of goodies.
Alright, lets talk about the actual fit. Perfection. They fit like a dream, I can only see them getting more and more comfortable. Very true to size, and being a size 18(clothing), I have a wider foot and calves than the average girl. I could see them fitting a slimmer girl just as well, they have a magic "sisterhood of the traveling pants" effect.
Is it okay to admit I drooled a little when I opened the box? Words cannot describe how beautiful they are. Oh god, the black flower lining, it's stunning too! They have this extravagant steam punk/Victorian/industrial feel. BEAUTIFUL!
Just to let you know, they are a light grey charcoal (that I'm happy with, and knew to expect). However, if you actually read the tag attached to the boot it explains what...Read more
