Dr Marten Jadon Review & Follow up video ~Mooseham

[@ernestedward2558]

I wore my new pair of jadon yesterday for 15 hours straight and walked kilometers, although I felt super cute I had to stop every 2 minutes and cry. Four band aids in the back of my feet, 2 thick socks, and duct tape around the outer socks and actual feet helped but I still got blisters.

[@mffm7321]

Ernest Edward Ahhh I got mine and I wore them twice (during school) and I was in sooo much painnnn. My feet still hurtttt!! Please tell me they do get comfortable because I am considering selling them

[@lindseystratmeyer1027]

It helps if you loosen them and don’t lace them all the way up

[@ernestedward2558]

MF FM hi! They did haha just 2 days ago, I comfortably danced with them without pain, although there were a slight discomfort on one foot, but that was it. My pair is getting there, they are quite wrinkled now, and I’m using less duct tape around my feet now. I hope you didn’t sell them, because the confidence boost when you wear them is everything. Goodluck!

[@sheena333]

MF FM the more you wear them the more comfy they get! i’ve had mine for 4 years and there the most comfy shoes i own, don’t worry!

[@soot_gremlinn]

I wore tights, a taller sock that I then folded down against my ankle and under my heel .. then put a ankle sock on top of all of that. I work 9 hour days in retail and this method has worked wonderfully for me. I swear I’ve only worn them 3 full days and they feel pretty comfortable already!!! Honestly I find thick wool like socks move around a lot and rub .. where as tighter socks work a lot better and sit still.

[@carmenmoore9273]

Do they run big?

[@KastKatt]

OMG your makeup is so beautiful 😭 also you make me wanna shave my head, but I have tried soooo long to get longer hair

[@Mooseham]

😭 Thank you!!! Yeah I do miss my longer hair some days! But it's so easy to look after and comfy I love it 😅

[@ashleygabriella9223]

on my third day of wear!!!! i just wear fuzzy socks, bandaids on the places that hurt a bit and i’ve gotten one small blister i just put 2 cotton rounds and medical tape on it and it felt a lot better! they’re starting to wear down now and i LOVE THEM :)))))))

[@kazzysmith4478]

I bought really fluffy insoles and glued it to the back on the shoe inside where it rubs, they never rubbed again but I had some extra room as I’m a size 2 1/2 and bought a size 3 tiny feet 🤣 worked though if u have a little extra room in them xx

[@northerlyartemis]

I love my docs but I swear those shoes and weird. I’ve worn them to gigs and walked around all day and they’ve been fine. Then the next day I wear them for half an hour and my feet are cut to ribbons. It’s so annoying!

[@kwaldemar2010]

I hear your pain! I had bought a special pair of docs, made in their factory in England & it took me 2 years of trying to break them in to no avail! Sadly I sold them on Ebay after I gave up :( I still miss them! I think it would be a good idea to make a video sharing your tips & tricks breaking in shoes! I've never heard of duck tape but that is genius!

[@Mooseham]

Noooo! Yeah I'm worried I may have to sell these on if I can't get them to work! I'm still determined! And yeah I might do! It's mostly just being patient and wearing them a lot around the house 😅

[@garythomas4431]

I've been wearing docs for decades. Wear them in the rain with good tight socks, medium weight. Then sit and let them dry. It helps to shape them to your feet better. Even with this trick you have to be patient. Docs are made very good and take a long time to break in. I've got two pair of UK docs that are over eight years old. Still stiff and I've worn them to outdoor muddy concerts, highland games in the rain. I love my docs.

[@mollieswonderland]

two of my friends have jadons and one of them has had multiple pairs of them with no real trouble, i envy those people who can break in docs so easily.... I have permanent scarring on my ankles because of them... but it's WORTH IT

[@sheena333]

same here!! but i don’t rly mind the scars cuz they look kinda cool😳

[@wickedsnicket609]

I have 2 pairs of 20 eye Docs that I love so, so much. They were definately worth the break- in time! And then there's the canvas pair and the vegan leather pair 😭😭😭 they absolutely loathe me! I'm going to try the duck tape tip if I ever go near them again!

[@Mooseham]

Yeah for sure! I've had two pairs of docs in the past, and I've worn them to the point of having holes in them! I seem to be having the most trouble with these, however!

[@bungeedoughnut]

You should use mink oil. Pure mink oil and let it sit on the creases of it. It also keeps them conditioned and prevents cracking in the leather :) Also. I wish I can pull off your style. I LOVE it

[@angeliquesubran4369]

bungeedoughnut I agree, I just tried mink oil on (and in them) and I can already feel a difference.

[@ciarawalsh5694]

dr martens wonder balsam has been amazing in helping to break in my new 1460s (finally broke after 15 years of wanting a pair!) Smother them and leave near a rad and do this every few days for 2 weeks or so and wear inbetween, and mine are already really soft after only a week of wearing an hour here or there around the house

[@spectacularplushbros0692]

Ergh I really want these ones too but not sure if I’m tough enough for the break in process. I’ve got Amilitas and I’m finding it difficult to find reviews on them. I don’t suppose you own them and can advise me pls? X

[@PpHT9217]

Been wearing newrocks for years, bought a pair of these martens,boot socks tend to do the job for me.

[@kansaszouilik8776]

@@Mooseham how are they now? I've been following your journey and still can't decide whether or not to buy some! 😵

[@ronhutchcraft2290]

You make good Videos Mooseham, definitely nice boots! I'm picking up a pair of Doc Martens 🌈 Rainbow Hi Jadons, (the taller Jadons) and I'm listening to your break in storytelling intently. Good on you Moose 😎🇬🇧👍🌈

[@Myownuniquestyle]

My husband's Jadon's split on the sole after 8 months. He sent an e mail to DM customer service and they said it was general wear and tear. Really annoyed. Basically all both he and I wear are DMs and had never had this before.

[@nathansciarone5627]

Sorry to hear that, jeez thought they would've at least given some compensation as they are not bloody cheap.

[@Myownuniquestyle]

@@nathansciarone5627 nope, just got fobbed off. Sadly as we have bought a lot of DMs and have continued to...

[@nathansciarone5627]

@@Myownuniquestyle yea its a bloody shame but when like me literally all you wear is dm boots its bound to happen unless maybe you pay an arm and a leg to buy specifically Uk made Docs lol

[@Myownuniquestyle]

@@nathansciarone5627 have done that too, but they have stopped making those as it was not cost effective for them to honor the repair guarantee. Still, we return haha

[@Mooseham]

Yeah I saw someone online complaining about this, I kinda don't think docs don't really work well with platforms in general, I think the material they use for the bottom is kinda unsuited for it!

[@tammyt.b.1078]

I mink oiled the insides if mine. I have purple and blue so I didnt oil from the outsides yet. Also I wore shea butter moisturizing socks.

[@mffm7321]

I lost faithhhhhhhhhh!!! I am sooo sad!!! Please keep us updated if you can! Your makeup is soooo damnnnn stunningggggg btw♥️

[@aishp1218]

I got myself a bigger size, which was surprisingly easier to break into.

[@wolfhauson]

Holy crap I just played the video but your makeup is AHMAYZING so beautiful 💕

[@doodlethendie]

aw man sounds painful! Did you try the burn plasters? They stick to your foot for ages too - I've been wearing them for some docs I got recently and i've showered with them on etc and they haven't shifted and they provide instant relief from rubbing heels. I've got to admit I have had pairs of docs i've gotten rid of before I managed to break them in because I just gave up. I avoid the smooth leather for that reason now!

[@Mooseham]

yeah, I did! I meant to say blister plasters, I even had it written down! They're fantastic I've used them before. But for whatever reason these shoes DESTROYED them! I'm not sure if my feet just got too hot and they came off or my docs are determined to hurt me! Yeah next time I buy docs I'm going to avoid the smooth leather too, I'm still going to try with them!!

[@doodlethendie]

@@Mooseham ohh sorry it didnt work. I use the burn plasters from boots and they come with 2 big sized plasters and they've stayed put on my heel for over a week. Hopefully the duct tape trick will work!

[@mareiketietjen3449]

The greatest tip I have ever got on these is using the Dr martens wonder balm on them! You can get it for like 7€ or so. All you need to do is apply a thin layer on the outside of your boot (and of you want to even on the inside part where it scratches) and then just squeeze and move the leather around as hard as you can, especially in that eara where the thicker ankle support "band" of the shoes end as the leather is super thick here. The shoe will start to absorb the oil from the balm and the leather gets soft Supper easily! I did this with my new docs 3 weeks ago and 1 week later I was able to walk around with them without any pain

[@bendere3753]

I exactly know what you mean with the rubbing at the back of your feet. I had a such a trauma because of the pain I felt that day!

[@okaymakeuplooks1719]

Omg your eyeshadow is amazing

[@RowsBuddd]

iv been told by many people you have to size down in them, I'm normally a 7, but I tried on a size 6 in them and they fit my actual foot fine, they have just slightly pushed against my big toes. Should I go for the 'no pain my gain' method and will they eventually stretch out to fit, or should I go for the 6.5's? thanks hun x

[@phoebemchugh388]

Rosie Miller-Clark I’m a size 4 and bought a size 3 they did exactly what you have said, they pushed on my big toes and no matter how many times I wore them or stretched them they never got comfortable and it was agony on my big toes.

[@phoebemchugh388]

I have a pair of vegan clarrisas and I have re brake them in every summer from my feet getting soft through the winter, they are bitches but I love them 😍

[@samone.m]

I’m so obsessed with this look 😩

[@Dayleofthedead]

Yay the logo looks great! I had a pair of green snake skin dms that I loved and only paid £4 for but they hated me! I could not break them in :(

[@Mooseham]

Thanks so much!! I love it! I feel like it fits so well! I'm still not 100% on the text yet, I'm going to mess around with it more! :) And that sucks! They're so good when you break them in, you just need the patience of a saint. :P

[@ChelPablo]

I just bought these and promptly returning! I haven't even worn them but most reviewers I've watched are in agony despite how cool these boots look! I'll try the Jadon Pisa leather. x

[@aaliyahruth475]

I would love to know if you ever broke them in! I'm going on 2 months owning them and sadly I still am having issues. They fit, they are nice, I done the hacks. I still have that rubbing up against my heel! I keep having to wear 2 pairs of socks when I wear them (I wear them almost 3 days out the week) I never had an issue with my 1460s but these are so frustrating. Or if anyone else knows? I want hope to break them in though I keep just reading online "mine fit right out the box" and that doesn't help me lmao!

[@C.C-e4n]

I just bought a pair of Jadons (my first pair of docs) about a week ago, and they're definitely uncomfortable. Just wearing them wasn't working for me, they were shredding my heels lol. But today I did something that made them sooo much more comfortable. Still hurts at the heels and next to my pinky toe, but it's so much better already. Basically I take the back area of the shoe, where the really hard, stiff heel part is. I unzip the shoe and loosen the buckles and everything. Then I grab the entire back of the shoe and I bend it all the way back, until it bends over the heel, if that makes sense. I leave it like that for a while and I keep tugging at it and bending it back and forth. In the meantime, I take the palms of my hands and I put all my weight on the front of the shoe, where the toes are. I keep leaning on that area over and over, essentially "squishing" and shaping the leather. Keep doing that over and over, even if you get tired, which you probably will lol. After that, grab the entire shoe in both hands and just bend it in every possible direction. Bend the front of the shoe left, right, all the way back, etc. Keep repeating this process as well. Just keep doing this entire process every day, about ten to fifteen minutes per shoe, and I'm sure it'll feel better in no time. I've only done it once so far and it made a huuuge difference already. I'll keep doing it every day and I'll see how that goes. Let me know if it works for you (: I know some people like breaking in their docs with a hammer but I personally don't want to try that out unless I've tried a more gentle approach first. Sorry for the long text, just wanted to explain it to the best of my ability

[@cakeeeetime]

And Docs are out. I've got VERY sensitive feet and get blisters from everything. Does anybody know a good long lasting shoe, that doesn't need breaking in this bad?

[@Mooseham]

Yeah I'm feeling unsure wetger to buy them again, I know the softer leather is easier to break in! New rocks are fantastic! The pair I bought I never got blisters from!

[@sofiaaguilar724]

If you like docs style shoes you might like tuk shoes. I have a few pairs and they're comfy and came with super soft insoles with painless break in :)

[@cakeeeetime]

@@sofiaaguilar724 Thank you! 💜🖤

[@salmam.7448]

I have blundstones and had zero break-in time but I know some people think the leather on that is tough.......If you buy half a size up it's a little wider and fits comfortably without breaking them in and they last a long time and look great!

[@mc23243]

I have Geox boots now, I have been wearing them all year last year and this year they look just as good as new. They are super comfortable and breathe well. I want to get pair of martens because they look so cool, but I'm scared now, why do they make painful shoes.

[@junkh3add]

i know you said you have pigeon feet which sucks i have curled toes so they rub against each other sometimes they’re a pain but most of the time they don’t bother me/hurt and if they do it’s usually my nail instead of skin

[@Landyfunk]

I'm reading all these Comments and im starting to wonder if everyones just wears the wrong size...? I just cant believe that there are shoes that are not made for wearing

[@spectacularplushbros0692]

Have you managed to break these in now? If so how long did you have ti suffer for lol x

[@eviedwhite9910]

Try mink oil or macadamia nut oil if you’d prefer a vegan alternative x

[@yrsapiersa8178]

Emily Mintern I am 6 feet tall and I looove my jadons. Personally, I don't mind being taller, but I can see why you would feel uncomfortable. To me, the look of the shoes is definitely worth the extra inches.
