It's hard to describe the fit of these, so I'll try to be as detailed as possible. My shoe size is 10.5M or 10W in US Men's sizing. I ordered these in UK 10, which is US 11, which was close... but...
1. The section near the ankle gapes open when you step on the ankle part of the shoe. The sides open up, and it's very loose in that area. When you walk with the shoes on, your ankle lifts off from the sole of the shoe a little bit, and it's just not a good fit.
2. Now in contrast, on the sides of the fit, and around the toes, it is very narrow. I don't know if it's because I have wide feet, but it squishes me.
3. Now one of the most annoying things is when you walk is squeaks really audibly. It sounds like you're rubbing two pieces of rubbery PVC or bondage leather together as you walk across the hallway.
So in summation, it's not a comfortable, or really consistent fit, and it squeaks. I love love LOVE the design, especially with Doc Marten's signature shoe bottom part, especially with this design, but it's just not worth it. It makes me sad. And the 1461 and 1460s fit me just fine. Not sure why this one is a tough cookie.
