    Dr Martens

    So DH asked me if I'd like some Docs for my birthday, and I've never owned a pair before. I have wide feet (probably due to the fact I didn't wear shoes growing up in the Solomon Islands) - do Docs come in various widths? Or are they a one width fits all kind of thing?

    Or you could get some Birkenstocks? Soooo comfy for wide feet! I think Sushee has Docs though? She might be able to tell you.

    I've had many pairs of docs, shoes as well as boots.

    I have a wide foot an never had a problem with them BUT I haven't bought any for 10 years, they are a little more mainstream now so might be slightly different.

    Man really missing my black buckled school shoes and bright purple 8 hole boots now!

    Mistyfying - I have narrow heels and wide toes, and they really suit me too. Only thing I find is that I either have to wear thicker sox for my heels or wrap the laces around the top holes - mine are 12-hole ones, black with purple stitching/eyelets. I love, love, LOVE them! The only time I *don't* love them is when I have to go to the airport through the scanners.
