Dr. Martens Blaire Sandal

Purchased as a gift for my wife and she loves them, they look very unique, good quality, and are identical to the one in the photo. We had no problem with the size, my wife is 38 and they fit perfectly

The shoe fantastic. It looks amazing and feels like it will last long. It takes a while to break in and took its toll on my feet in the beginning, leaving me with a few sores and scans.

Is hard when I wear it the the strap and the sole is hard

So, I wanted these for ages, and seeing them discounted on Amazon, I had to. They’re lovely, HOWEVER, after the first two wears they’ve cut my ankles sooooo deep I’m not sure you can wear these without suffering 😅 I don’t think it’s going to take “wearing in” I think you need to stock up on compeed patches to save your skin! I wanted to use these to travel in ✈️ but I think I’m better off in some comfy trainers, as you can’t walk for long in these. Aesthetically lovely, but just to harsh in the skin sadly.

While I can appreciate the Dr Marten's brand as long lasting and durable, it's proved very difficult for me to break them in as the strap cuts deeply into my leg, leaving scars. Part of my process in making them wearable was to wear two pairs of socks while walking around the home. Thinking this worked, the first outside adventure, walking at a slow pace, resulted with blistered as they are a heavy sandal. I have kept them and rarely wear them.
