Not like they used to be

I bought this boot for my husband who is a long time customer and lover of the Dr Martens as comfortable and wearing well.  These boots look just like all of the other he has owned but a relatively short time in (3 months) the sole of the shoe sheared away from the upper.  They are unwearable and Dr Marten will not warrant them.  Considering this to be an anomaly, I order another pair, same problem with the sole.  No more Dr Marten.

I bought some of these to replace some that I bought about a year ago that were wearing thin.  These are not nearly as smooth as the original ones.

Much thinner and less sturdy than they used to be. Used to love these things, now they are an envelope not much different from any other.

The Good old days aren't what they were made out to be.

Cheaper design than previous purchase. If you bought these a few years ago, don't expect this to be the same.

The first set of these we got were great, but two years have past, and my wife lost one. So I order another set and instead of being the same, they're slightly larger, very different finish, and much lighter and cheaper feeling. No idea what's happened in the past two years, but I wouldn't buy these again.

But the quality has changed. I have been wearing these slippers for last 15-20 years so I can tell the difference. They do not last as long as before. The picture is misleading - the inside sole does not have the stitching and it's less comfortable.

Not the same shoe,they must not have the same maker. Shoe is not as nice as before,color is different and sole is different. I loved the old model will not be buying these anymore.

I've bought these comfortSoft by Hanes kind for years and I'll tell you that they're NOT the same. I have some in my drawer that are a few years old. The material is altogether different. Not as soft. It's almost has a rough feel to it and no where near as thick and dense as they use to be. The band around the waist is smaller too and the stitching.... well of lesser quality. Totally disappointed in over all quality compared to these when they came out some years ago. Checkout my photo and you can see the band width, stitching and material itself are inferior.

I bought Hue for many years - in fact, they were such great quality that I haven't had to buy any in several years.  Well, they're not making them like they used to.  The control top is a different fabric & while the old ones used to just give you a nice amount of comfortable control, the new ones squeeze & pinch like sausage casings.  The overal quality seems to be lighter weight as well.  I'm not impressed.

They have been changed for the worse.  They are not soft anymore.  Not like they used to be.  The mouth feel is horrid.  They never get softer as you chew them.  Ill never buy these again.

I used to love these shoes, but they have changed.  They do not break in like the older version, and stay very stiff.

I bought these to replace the pair I bought in ~1990, which I loved and which lasted until now. The new ones seem a little snug in the foot, which makes them feel awkward in a way that's hard to describe. The upper sock portion is very tight--maybe this allows for stretch over time, but my old pair did not need to be broken in like these might. Also, the sole is suede now instead of leather as on my old ones, which suggests to me that they won't stand up to occasional trips to get the mail or take out the trash like my old ones did.

Not the same quality as they used to be,!
Does not hold up to a 300# man walking' the soles get thin under your feet casing the rest of the sole to curl up.
I bought a pair in 2002 and thought they were amazing,

I purchased these to replace a pair I bought a couple of years ago. The design has changed therefore these were not as comfortable and had a tighter fit to them.
