These are Dr. Martens style boots. They are not authentic Docs. I believe they are genuine leather, though (take a look at the photo of the inside of the boot & see what you think). My husband bought these but they didn't fit him well so he ordered a pair of authentic Docs in a larger size. These boots are quite nice for knock-offs and he said the sole feels exactly like the famous "bouncing soles" Doc Martens have. Please look at all photos closely as they are part of the description. Worn briefly around the house, one time, with socks. There is no dirt, no funk & no smell. These are size 13.5 but fit more like a 12.5 - 13
