Review on Dr. Martens Maccy Mary Jane Shoes (Little Kid/Big Kid) by Tim Curd

I bought this in August 2015. They were a bit too big so my daughter wore them with the insoles removed as her feet grew. We live twenty minutes walk from the school. She told me last week that there was a small hole in one of the shoes. The soles still feel very thick and maybe the puncture could have been fixed but instead I bought the next size up. I expected them to break in after a few days and when she insisted on wearing them to school the day after she arrived I took a spare pair of shoes with me because I was sure they would start to rub. They didn't. My eldest is 18 years old. I've been buying school shoes for 13 years now and I've never seen one that lasts as long or is as comfortable on the first try. And because we walk so much I always buy good quality so I compare them to Clark's, Start-rite and Hush Puppies which cost as much if not more. I just can't recommend them enough. I will keep buying them until they stop selling their size or until they refuse to wear them. Now she's seven and thinks she's cool ;)
