So long as the length of the boot matches, or isslightly longer than your foot (about a quarter inch), the bootshould stretch to a comfortable fit.


Likewise, people ask, can I stretch Dr Martens?

Wear them around your home for one to two hours at atime. Just sitting isn't going to do it: To get the leatherto stretch, you'll have to move. Personally, I like towiggle my foot as far forward inside the boot as it will goto stre-e-e-etch that leather just a little further.

Likewise, do Doc Martens feel tight at first? In my experience, the fit was snug, though prettyuncomfortable at certain areas (where the eyelet stitching meetsthe toe box).
