Dr. Martens Elphie Mary Janes - NEW

Classic Mary Jane style with sturdy construction. Comfortable and stylish for any occasion. Yes, these are softer than the regular leather Docs that require one to drive over them with a truck. Although the website says that these are true to size, I found them a bit tight in the toe box, and this is coming from a gal who lives in her DM size 8 Dupree patent leathers - another pointy-toe shoe. The strap fit fine, and I have a high instep. I have since ordered the next size up - socks are good in winter. From the DM website: The Elphie Mary Jane shoe is our twist on a classic. Less dainty. More Doc’s. A pointed ballet flat shoe made from soft Virginia leather. Fastened with a single strap with a DM’s branded buckle. The tapered sole is marked with DM’s signature grooving pattern and secured with yellow welt stitching. Material: Virginia - a soft, fine-grain leather that is treated to feel smooth and supple, our Virginia Leather is typically dyed and is offered in a variety of bright colors. Care Instructions - Wipe away dirt using a damp cloth. Apply Dr. Martens Wonder Balsam to the outside of your footwear to keep the leather supple Construction - Goodyear Welted - the upper and sole are heat-sealed and sewn together, providing more comfort and durability for years to come.
