Is $125.14 a good price for the Dr. Martens Embury?

Yes. New pairs usually sell around $150–$170, so $125.14 at Zappos.com as of November 7, 2026 is a solid discount.

How does the Embury fit compared with other Dr. Martens?

It runs large for many buyers. If you are between sizes or wear thin socks, size down half a size.

Are the Embury boots waterproof?

The leather upper is treated to shed water and the boots are listed as waterproof, but there is no Gore-Tex membrane, so deep puddles can still get in at the gore.

How long does the break-in take?

Most owners report one to three weeks of regular wear before the leather softens and the sole flexes.

What sizes does the Embury come in?

Unisex US sizes 3 to 16.5, including half sizes, in medium width.

Our take on the Dr. Martens Embury

The Dr. Martens Embury is a slip-on Chelsea boot in genuine leather with the brand's air-cushioned rubber sole and a 4-inch ankle shaft. It comes in black, brown and gunmetal, in unisex sizing from US 3 to 16.5, and weighs about 24 oz per boot. At $125.14 at Zappos.com as of November 7, 2026, it sits well below the typical $150–$170 new price for Dr. Martens Chelseas, so this is a good moment to buy.
