Black shoes for basic wardrobe - Doc Martens 1461 sizing?
Hey all,
I've gone a while not owning a pair of black casual shoes and have decided I want to remedy that. For right now I'm looking at chunky derbies, but I would like some suggestions for black sneakers as well.
I've been looking at the DM 1461s with the contrast stitching, and they seem like they're broadly recommended. I was about to pull the trigger on a second-hand pair but read some posts/reviews that suggested sizing down.
Does anyone have experience with the sizing? For reference, in Adidas Sambas I wear a US mens size 8. Would you recommend getting a size 7 in the docs?
Thank you!
