I own a pair of the 1460W in 5 UK/7 US Women. In comparison, this shoe is wider and slightly longer. I understand that this is a unisex/men's style, so I expected it to be a bit roomier but not longer. However, compared to the 1460W, I have not had to break in the instep at all. The heel was painful from the very beginning but before I started to wear these, I folded the stiff part back several times and it seems to have helped stop it from digging into my foot. Style wise, I am very happy with these shoes and I am excited to wear them in.<br /><br />However, I do have several complaints. My shoes did not come with an extra pair of yellow shoelaces like Doc Martens usually do. Additionally, upon receiving these shoes, I immediately noticed that there was some strange creasing on the top of both shoes. On my left shoe, it almost looks as if the leather was not smoothed out before being sewn into place, causing a fold, while my right shoe has a combination of almost air-bubbly creases. Ultimately I decided to keep this pair because it took forever for them to arrive and I'm an impatient person. Also, I imagine that the odd creasing will not be very noticeable once I begin to wear these in a little bit more. However, I hope that in future purchases, OutdoorEquipped and Amazon will do a better job of performing quality control checks, especially on products that customers are paying $90+ for.
