Ok, only worn these 1 day so far.  When they arrived, I put the right shoe on, was like, "ok".  Put the left shoe on and was like, "wow".  Left felt all snug and awesome.  The right didn't for some reason, but I put them both on and walked around for a bit.  The heal height kinda threw me for a bit -it's a bit high if you're not used to heals.  But, I will say.  I wore them all day today (still on) and I like them A LOT.  The leather is soft.  The sole has grown softer (just a day's worth of using and they're gotten more springy/cushiony).  The look is really good - super nice shoes.  I do wish they offered these with 200 grams of thinsulate or something.  Weather here is about 38/35 degrees w/ snow on the ground, my feet got a wee bit chilly.  I did put on some woolie boolies and that helps a lot.  Very nice boots.  I wasn't sure what the difference was between the different versions of this boot like the Lyme etc.  I will, depending on durability over time, be buying doc martens' again.
