yep from what i saw its a mixture. all original but to cut cost i think. anyways.. couldnt beat the MIE. my brother got the MIE from a bundle shop 2-3 years ago and still kicking ass... as for MIC/MIV/MIT a friend of mine bought it last two years and now got a hole lol... but the sole still thick as always... just the outer shell kindda not hold. not like the ol' time MIE Dr. Martens.

hello im planning to buy dr m from amazon, but there is alot of comments or complains regarding size and color at this amazon website..anyone has an experience before? any tips?

Buying online is a hassle unless you buy online consistently, know your stuff and know what to do. I purchase most of my clothes online and from buying online for the past 3 - 4 years on eBay etc. and I still get worried over sizing and sometimes get disappointed when I receive a certain item that isn't up to my expectations but that's how it is. You'll get by with some items happily and you get burned in other instances.

You really need to know your size and do a lot of research on a certain item. If it is possible to ask the seller questions, do it ! It helps a lot but in your case, I suggest you go to a DM store and see what you want, try it on and buy online. Chances are you'll be satisfied as your expectations and the item bought won't be too far off.

May I know why do you opt for Amazon instead of buying it in our local stores ?

bought the smooth black 1460 from the pavilion DM boutique on saturday, it's MIC. wearing it to work today

btw they have a promo now, min RM600 purchase will get RM600 worth of vouchers (RM100 x 6). catch is, it expires in 2 months and can only use 1 voucher per receipt. but a bit miffed i didn't go for the offer, could've sold the vouchers and recoup some money haha

i think it'll be pricier to buy online when you factor in shipping. even without shipping, docs frm the official us online store is usd125 already. thats abt rm470, which is only rm59 less than retail price here.

unless if ur buying the MIE though, its usd200, roughly rm752 vs retail price here of rm1029 if im not mistaken. of course, this is not factoring in shipping cost yet...

shipping at worse would cost approx. RM150 prority mail, so still pretty decent.

i thought the shoe is RM599? just need to add another small item

our local store doesnt bring the color that i want. yeah, buying online is really depends on luck. sometimes is ok, sometimes is bad. but honestly this will be my first time buying from amazon.

there's 3 types of 1460 when i went last weekend. the MIC one like i bought is 529, while the MIE is 1029 or so. then there's another one which according to the SA is made of softer leather, but the last is narrower. that one is 599.

yeah, just buy an extra lace or the dubbin then you should be there already (no wonder balsam in stock though, need to spruce up my old crazy horse

ish, lain kali ajak someone from this forum go together. can get voucher RM100x6 buta buta.

at first i thought the voucher can use all in one purchase. luckily i double check with the staff first.

that's why i wasn't interested..bila pikir balik, should've just sold the damn thing haha

Guys, just an update. Saw promotion at Dr Martens pavilion today. From 28-31 August, get second pair at 58% off.

Yes it is.

The stocks from Zalora are usually from the official distributors

Too bad only red ones. Wanted the 8eyed black one also no size, only got the navy one. After discount and cash back the 8eyed should come to around rm380+

Almost 2 years no posts. Everyone still happy with DMs? Just wondering if anybody tried the new DM Lites with the SoftWair sole. Thinking of getting one.

Like the Cavendish. But at RM 669 the price is too steep due to our weaken currency.

There is a DM shop in Mitsui Premium Outlet with some made in UK DMs selling at 50% off. You may want to give it a try.

I was looking at the Solaris & Rigal Carpathian. Both are available at Mitsui and Lazada at RM349.50. I think those are the only DM Lites at Mitsui. Many other shoes at 50% and there were at least 2 MIEs at 70%. Thinking of getting the Solaris but waiting till the end of the month for Maxis' Lazada discount. I did get a pair of canvas DMs at 70% off. Minor damage only at RM120.
