Do not buy shoes from Footway UK. Terrible, rude and condescending service.
Also beware of Sneaky Steves Nice on the outside, but have darn near rubbed the skin off the back of my heals.

Are these doc Martens?

Yeah, 1460 MONO SMOOTH BLACK.

Classic. UK or Chinese?

Bought in UK in DR Martens shop but made in China. Now came strange time...all made in China.
About 25 years ago I owned pair 1460 made in UK ... they were almost eternal and served me 8 or 9 year.

 

[crism1]

Yup, the quality dropped down by quite a lot in the last years

 

[MikeyB-17]

Yeah you can still get them made in the UK, but they cost nearly £200. I remember when they were £19.99! I have a pair of Chinese ones, but I picked up a pair of UK-made six-hole Solovairs (who collaborated with Dr. Marten on the original boots), which I much prefer.

Back when everything was still in black and white virtually all the lads at school wore Doc Martins usually bought from Milletts 'up town'. The soft air soles wore rapidly ....but the name, said quick enough, always raised a laugh.

I didn't want buy 1460 with a traditional yellow stitch, and I didn't see completely black (1460 mono) model UK made.
