You always mention ‘balsamic’ in your Doc videos. It’s not balsamic, it’s balsam. Balsamic is vinegar. I don’t think putting that on your DMs would do them much good! 🙃

[@Fodaydontplay]

lol.. I know... its something I am working on it. the label on it confuses me.

All my docs apart from my made in England 1914's and for life 1460's are the smooth leather and they've been very comfortable out the box brand new, the leather on the for life 1460's is a soft leather so was even more comfortable from day 1. But the Quilon Leather my Made in England 1914's has been a real challenge to break into, it's taken a lot of patience and perseverance with them. They took the skin off the back of my heels a quite a few times during the break in period, and still can now sometimes if I've worn them all day, and they'll be 10 years old next year, they are very comfortable thought and I do love them 🥰 My next pair of Doc's I want in the Pascal Virginia Leather ☺️

[@Fodaydontplay]

Okay.. my made in England felt good right out the box and then surprised me one day. The Chelsea boots were tight for me and felt funny sometimes but it’s good now.

[@bikerguychris33]

@@Fodaydontplay I guess everyone has different experiences with Doc's and the different types of leather with regards to having to break them in or not break them in, don't they? When you say your made in England Doc's surprised you one day, do you mean they suddenly hurt? That's good that your Chelsea boots are good now 😉

[@Fodaydontplay]

@@bikerguychris33 yeah everyone has a different experience. Yes the made in England docs just started hurting me one day.

[@bikerguychris33]

@@Fodaydontplay Aw right, that's strange that they should start hurting you after the break in period, although that being said, my Made in England 1914's can sometimes still take the skin off the back of my heels and leave me with a cut which is sore, if I wear them all day, and they'll be 10 years old next year, so are well past the break in period 😂

[@Fodaydontplay]

[@Fodaydontplay]

Oo fancy… it between a 5 or 6.. I’ll say 6 to be safe

[@onixtheone]

I can’t wait to put balsamic vinegar on my docs 😂

[@Fodaydontplay]

😂.. it makes them zesty

[@staciecremeans1350]

Can you use the wonder balsam on smooth leather?

[@Fodaydontplay]

Yes you can

[@Oakleaf700]

I bought some green DM's in 1990's and the pain....I should probably have bought the next size up, I tried everything... they tortured my feet. Ended up giving them two a charity shop. My loss was someone's gain! they rubbed my heels and across the toe so badly. I googled...the trad boot now costing over £200. They were about £80 back then.

[@Fodaydontplay]

Wow.. some really did gain from that. The inflation is crazy.

[@Oakleaf700]

@@Fodaydontplay Isn't it scary - Inflation has rocketed even in last few years.

[@mickeyd7283]

Horween leather is very comfortable out the box and in my opinion looks great.

[@Fodaydontplay]

okay. they do look great

[@RebeccaSmith77]

My first docs ever will be here tomorrow, and they are the 1461s in olive Horween leather. NGL, I'm nervous about breaking them in. 😬

[@jeankervinbanayat6375]

What's the difference between the Crazy horse leather vs the pascal?

[@Fodaydontplay]

Crazy horse leather has a distressed appearance so you can the scratches on you boots. The pascal leather is soft leather that makes it easy to break in your docs

[@lolarew6752]

Some people complain about crazy horse without knowledge of the leather. If you do not like a rugged look, skip the collection.

[@Fodaydontplay]

Yeah definitely.. they are one of my favorites

[@sb11116]

Do you know the difference between the "1460 PASCAL BEX PISA" and "1460 PASCAL BEX"? I'm trying to figure out if the difference is the type of leather or something about the shape.

[@Fodaydontplay]

The difference is the type of leather. The Pascal Bex Pisa are very soft leather than the other one. The Pascal Bex is not the hardest to break in, but the Pisa is one of the softest leathers Dr Martens offer

[@sb11116]

@@Fodaydontplay Thanks for the info! :)

[@Fodaydontplay]

@@sb11116 you welcome

[@sonoviva]

for my first pair I decided to go with the 1460 in soft leather and I've never regretted it, I never had to break them in as they were already soft, also I thought they looked a bit more feminine than the classic ones. I have used them everyday for years, now they look a bit rough but that's because I'm lazy and I've never taken care of them 😅

[@Fodaydontplay]

Okay.. you made a great decision on the soft leather as your first.. docs look good dirty

[@senpaik_]

Can you give any insights on their Quilon leather?

[@Fodaydontplay]

I have them.. they are in the middle… it doesn’t take too long to break into

[@senpaik_]

​@@Fodaydontplay Sweet! That's great to hear. Bit off topic, but what about their sole quality? I've been reading stuff that Made in England soles are poor and wear out faster compared to the soles with "The Original" in it.

[@naxhielytejeda8043]

The virginia leather is the easiest to break into, id say theres no breaking into at all. They’re so soft and comfortable right away :)

[@Fodaydontplay]

Yeah definitely

[@96169QQ]

Krazy Horse!

[@Fodaydontplay]

lol..

[@peterbruno657]

I got the smooth ones and the leather seems to be coated in rubber or something.

[@Fodaydontplay]

Really! That’s strange

[@Padraigp]

Break in. Not break into. Youre not burglerizing the shoe lol! 😂

[@Fodaydontplay]

Lol.. I know.. I’m working on my English

[@Padraigp]

@@Fodaydontplay hahah! Made a funny pun anyway! We have full grain waxed lesther doc martins but cant find any video about them. They are so bad when you walk in the grass which is wet the whole shoe seems to suck up the water like a sponge and gets so insanely wet. I thought dr martins would be a little bit damp proof aat least. Reallt dissapointing. Any idea what to do to help it be less wet? Thank you! 😊

[@ladinadina6966]

How easy is the crazy horse leather to break in?

[@Fodaydontplay]

Personally I didn’t have difficulties with them. They are not the hardest break in

[@Burtronic]

I have a pair of 1460 crazy horse, first few wears in thick socks, maybe a small pair underneath, then they were like and old friend. I have an old pair of the crazy horse Chelsea boots, they are like gloves, love them, had them years!

[@rosita061]

I’ve had both soft leather and vegan in the red 1460- with the vegan being platformed. The vegan red is my favourite color, but the material is weak. The color had chipped from the toe within a month- exposing a black material under the red, with further degradation of the leather around the creases in the toe fold area throughout the years causing the shoes to loose thier water proof/resistance. I’m other words, my feet get wet when I wear them in heavy rain or snow. From a sole perspective, my first pair lasted 6 years, and the second (vegan) are going strong after 6 years. So all in all, I wouldn’t ever buy vegan again. Which is a shame to have inferior quality for Vegans who don’t wear leather for ethical reasons, but shell out $250cad for the brand.
