I think the black smooth is a bit tougher to break in (I have the red smooth). There used to be a silver black leather and another black, which were softer. </p> <p>I believe Angie also has a white patent 20-eyelet pair.</p> <p>Whichever pair you decide on, they are great sturdy (and well cushioned) boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-drmartens-shoes#post-223782 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 23:11:21 +0000 Marigold 223782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're lovely, I remember being crazy about Dr Martens back in high school, but I didn't par them with such cute outfits (grunge style, omg!), Hmmm, maybe the tall ones will be ok? I think it depends on the leg length too. I'm sorry I'm not too much of help </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-drmartens-shoes#post-223764 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 22:44:18 +0000 jz 223764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I forgot to ask, what are the colors and finish for your 2 pairs? black smooth vs. black? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-drmartens-shoes#post-223760 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 22:40:02 +0000 jz 223760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie! I'm 5 ft 3. I love knee hight boots, pity that 20-eyelet will be too high for my height. the 14 eyelet has many models, which one is the classic style? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-drmartens-shoes#post-223589 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 14:43:15 +0000 Angie 223589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, JZ! </p> <p>20 eyelets are fabulous and I have two pairs, but they are very tall. As a petite they will come up too high. I am 5 ft 6 and I am just tall enough for them: </p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/2010/02/01/how-to-wear-a-tunic-shirt-casual-dress-code/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2010/02/.....ress-code/</a></p> <p>My suggestion would be to try the 14 eyelets. Petites on this forum have had great success with those.</p> <p>I am assuming that you are petite in height? Or do you mean petite in frame? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-drmartens-shoes#post-223573 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 14:17:54 +0000 jz 223573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Angie, I am a YLF fan and form habit of checking the site everyday:-) I remember your post about Dr.Martens boots with clamdigger last winter. I love the look but was not into the style of the boots. Now I'm crazy about Dr.Martens 20-eyelet boots and would like to buy one, Zappo has 3 colors, black, black smooth and patent, i'd like to ask your opinion about the difference between black and black smooth. I'm a petite person and usually wears size 0 or 2 or small. Thanks! </p>
