The Doc Martens Sizing Guide for Men and Women

The Doc Martens Sizing Guide for Men and Women
The Dr. Martens brand was originally created in the 1940’s as a purveyor of quality all-weather work boots. These boots were later catapulted into the glam punk fashion scene in the 1970’s, cementing the brand as a staple within alternative and subverted styles. Doc Martens can now be seen worn by people from all walks of life, their classic silhouettes enhancing individual styles from the local coffee shop to the red carpet.

Doc Martens Shoe Sizing

Drawing back to their working-boot history, Dr. Martens shoes are designed to be durable and long-lasting. This sturdiness does mean however that you may need to spend a period of time breaking in the tough leather of your new shoes before they can be worn in full comfort. The ease of this process strongly depends on the sizing of your shoe, making it incredibly important to shop for the correct size when picking your new pair of shoes. Read more to learn how to find the perfect pair of Doc Martens for your wardrobe.

Boot Sizing

Dr. Marten shoes and boots generally run true to size. Their shoes only come in whole sizes with one foot width, meaning that you may have to make small adjustments to your true size when purchasing a new pair. If you’re hoping to add the classic Doc Marten look to your wardrobe with pieces like the Jaden Smooth Leather Platform Boot, stick to your true size or go a half size up. This style is notorious for being the most difficult to break in, so adding a little extra room to your shoe can help you avoid any blistering or chafing that can come from too-tight boots. This same sizing recommendation goes for Doc Marten Chelsea boots like the 2976 Smooth Leather Chelsea Boot. If you do find that the shoes feel a little large, you can easily purchase insoles to make up for the difference while adding some extra comfort.

Sandal and Oxford Sizing

Doc Marten Sandals and Oxfords like the 1461 Iced Smooth Leather Oxford Shoe or the Blair Hydro Leather Strap Sandal also generally run true to size. The main difference between these is that you may find more leniency in the open-toe area of their sandals if you purchase a smaller size. Whichever shoes you’re looking for, check out the charts below to find the perfect size for your next purchase.
