Solovair are a bit better than MIE Dr Martins and look more or less the same. Maybe switch to those if you cant get the Martin ones you want
I seem to recall we have a DM expert / senior employee on these fora?
The MiE Doc’s that I want are out of stock in my size and I wonder when they’ll ever be back in stock (via the DM official website).
They’re impossible to buy anywhere, despite being a standard production shoe.
There’s another pair of MiE’s I will also buy and since I have a use-once-only 10% voucher, I don’t want to buy until they’re both in stock…
Cheers!

Thanks folks - those are great looking boots & shoes, although clearly derivative of DM’s…
Alas, I am wedded to DM’s, and DM’s it has to be!
I have 8 or so pairs currently.
They are not a derivative as such as they made the original soles and Griggs made the uppers that resulted in DMs. They made their own Doc Martin by Solovair boots for 35 years under licence until the 1980s. They continue to make their own version now after Griggs moved most of the production overseas. Some people even consider Solovair the original DMs.

Awesome!
It’s the 1461 Oxblood, Made in England in size 11 (OXBLOOD QUILON / 12877601 from the DM website).
I’m going to get the same shoe in the 1460, which is in stock.
But per my original message, really need them both to be in stock so I can maximise my 10% voucher!
Cheers Jon!

Sorry only just saw this, I definitely do - had an exceptionally busy couple of days and only just got back to this thread. I do really appreciate the offer!
Adrian,
The merchandising team are currently shuffling stock around to accommodate all DCs. These should be back in stock sometime next week.
If you click on the out of stock size (11) you can add an email reminder for when it will be back in stock.
Hope that helps.
JK
Thank you!!!
