Dr. Martens 1461 Derby - classic and timeless and durable. Dr. Martens will last you a long time. I still have mine from high school. These are brand new, so you will get a good wear out of them. The upper material is leather. A warning about the size: They run big. A ladies’ US size 8 (as it says on the box) feels more like a ladies’ US size 9. They are actually unisex. Men‘s size is supposed to be 7 and Women‘s size is supposed to be 8, but, as I mentioned, they run big.
