Of course, the only way to know it to try them on, I have to double check the site has free returns! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-279007 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 09:53:13 +0000 Lynne 279007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, Isabella, I haven't tried US sizing but my Filofax gives US 6.5=GB5=EUR38 and US7=GB5.5=39, which would suggest sizing up?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-279000 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 09:35:57 +0000 Louise 279000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I seem to recall from a post that Angie is 5'6" too so hopefully you'll be OK. I've just bought some clogs from Land's End and a UK 6 was a US 8 so if they are correct you take off 2 numbers to get the UK size. I found it best to go with the larger size in the docs to allow for thick socks, when I tried the 6 they were snug with one pair of thin socks and not much room to wiggle my toes, I'm also going to put an insole in for extra comfort and warmth x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-278633 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 19:41:57 +0000 Marigold 278633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm 5'6", so hopefully they'll be OK with height. Hmm I looked at the older posts about sizing, you say you're 6 1/2 in UK sizing Louise? I was thinking I was either 5 or 4 UK (6 1/2-7 US or 37 Euro), I wish I remembered what size were my old green Docs way back in high school LOL! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-278628 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 19:37:17 +0000 MsMary 278628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my good Lord, that color is delicious!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-278625 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 19:33:01 +0000 Louise 278625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear them with everything. Skinnies, leggings, skirts, dresses........ They give *girly* outfits a bit of edge. Are you fairly tall? Some of the YLF ladies have found the 20 eyelets too tall in the shaft. In a normal boot they would have been too tall on me but the laces allow me too reign in the gap at the top x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-278621 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 19:21:26 +0000 Marigold 278621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, they look so nice on you, love the plum/gray, I don't have gray boots and it's a nice gray, too. My feet are 6 1/5-7 US or 37 European, I think I should get 5 UK then? It's a little confusing.<br /> What do you wear yours with? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-278618 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 18:55:31 +0000 Louise 278618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*Waving hands in the air* me me me I do! I LOVE them. They are 8 hour boots for me so warm and comfy and perfect for snow and slush. Make sure you waterproof them before wearing them out as I didn't and got salt stains on them though I have just about managed to polish them out. My feet are 6 1/2 UK so I got the 7's and have room for thick socks in them.<br /> Hope the piccies below help with colour x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gray-doc-martens#post-278530 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 14:00:19 +0000 Marigold 278530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone have a pair 20 eyelets in gray? I'm thinking about ordering one, found it on sale for 120, how is the color in real life? I need something that will trek through slush and snowy sidewalks, but not Uggs all the time...<br /> <a href="http://www.onlineshoes.com/womens-dr-martens-1b60-20-eye-buttero-zip-boot-grey-p_id196781?adtrack=froogle&#038;term=Women&#039;s+Dr+Martens+1B60+20+Eye+Buttero+Zip+Boot&#038;offer=&#038;ci_src=14110944&#038;ci_sku=236310" rel="nofollow">http://www.onlineshoes.com/wom.....sku=236310</a><br /> Oh, anyone ever ordered from this website?
