BEWARE:<br /><br />The other members are right - They don't make em like they used to. I have DMs that I bought in the UK 20 years ago that are still going strong but the ones manufactured in Asia will not last like they used to. I wear them almost every day and I get about 5 years at most out of them.<br /><br />ALSO - Keep in mind. The Dr. Martin &#34;FOR LIFE&#34; - Warranty DOES NOT APPLY on ANY DMs not bought though their website which means you will pay 20% - 30% MORE for the same shoe to get the Warranty and even then, its up to them to decide if they will replace them or not. Also its only on certain shoes where the warranty actually applies so keep this in mind while shopping.<br /><br />They also make it kind of a pain in the rear to actually buy the ones with the &#34;FOR LIFE&#34; warranty.
