Doc Martin 8 eye steel toe


I want to get a pair of Docs and my work will pay up to $100 (I can pay the different) for safety shoes and I can get new ones in 3 weeks.

I want what I know as 8 Eyelet Black Greasy boots. Does anyone know if these come in steel toe? I dont want them to have the 'work boot' style padded cuff at the top, I want a kind of classic doc martin boot.

Anyway know the cheapest place to look?

thanks man
I have never worn a pair of nikes in my life...
never could afford them as a kid and not into them as an adult...

but I am thinking i want to get away from the tennis shoe market
and get into a pair of shoes that are an investment

as the sole wears down you can take them and get them repaired...
instead of just letting them go to hell

rockports are the shit.
i have a pair, i love em.
not really my style (that sort of dress up sneaker look), but they are mad comfortable.

before my computer jobs, i used to wear new balance if i had to stand all day. like walking on air.

i can't say any docs i've ever owned were comfortable. my gripfast are reasonable, but with the massive soles and the steel caps and being a size 13, each one weighs like 4 pounds. you know it when you take them motherfuckers off!





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

For a good boot, try Red Wings.

New Balance are great. I am also partial to Mizuno as well

I've always found doc's to be the best thing for working long hours.

One of my ex jobs was 54 hours a week,i started out wearing a pair of DC's But they lasted about a week (They fell to pieces) So i thought fuck it i'll wear my doc's,which lasted 2 years,and they also kept my feet in a good condition.




Living a life kept shut by a dream,
I'm reaching out to grasp my reality.
Hands of time wrap tight around my neck, and hit me so hard,
leaving me eyes black.
staring at a ceiling,
wondering why i never left,
penning words in a notebook,
wondering why haven't slept.
sanity is tapping in a cell
inside my fucking head.
begging for redemption
after hearing what was said.
the nights, they will not sleep
cause the days, have played for keeps.

the first one has a skull laser etched into the side of it...
and the 1919's:
Inspired by our industrial work boots, this fashion steel-toe collection from Dr. Martens carries all of the attitude, without the additional specifications required for heavy work.

I definitly dont want a skull on the side of the boot!


But whats up with the 2nd one? I dont see what you typed in the description. Are they steel toe or do they 'look like steel toe'?

i didn't look, but i think i know the issue.

there are "industrial" steel toes (i think it's "ansi" rated, but i might have the acronym wrong). those are legit for jobs that require a steel toe for safety reasons. "fashion" steel toes have not been ansi approved. not sure if that means they meet a lower standard or just didn't pay for approval.

the ansi steel toes often have that padded collar at the top of the boot.

also, i'm pretty sure i had some 8-eye docs without the padded collar and with a steel toe... but maybe i'm wrong.
