San Leather Mule Men: Choose this if you want an easy-on, backless slip-on mule in brown, with waxy Orleans leather and side elastics for step-in wear, sizes 7 to 12. It suits shoppers drawn to minimal detailing on a sturdy build: Goodyear welted construction, an anatomically shaped cork insole, and a wear-resistant, anti-slip grooved outsole with an AirWair air cushion. Note that Dr. Martens describes the Orleans leather's colour as lightening as it moves and stretches, and the sole material is listed only as other material.[1,2,3,4]Adrian Mules Men: Choose this if you want a backless slip-on mule in black with a classic kiltie fringe and double tassels, made from supple, waxy Orleans leather that the brand says lightens in color and develops character as it moves. The Goodyear welted construction can be resoled to extend the shoe's lifespan, and the grooved outsole is described as anti-slip and wear-resistant with an AirWair air cushion, plus a padded footbed inside. Note that one wearer found the tassel hard pressing on the top of the instep and was wary of another breaking-in period, so sensitive insteps may want to consider that.[5,6,7,8,9,10,11]Adrian Snaffle Kiltie Loafers Men: Choose this if you want a tassel kiltie loafer with visible Docs character: a polished, high-gloss burgundy leather upper, double tassels and fringe with a metal horsebit, Goodyear welted construction with the brand's yellow welt stitching, and a slip-resistant, wear-resistant clear grooved outsole with an AirWair air cushion. Brand copy calls it a perfect shoe for warmer weather, and one style guide recommends it over quieter slip-ons for denim, workwear, and socks-forward outfits. Be aware it is a laceless slip-on: one commenter found the tassel pressed hard on the instep and struggled to put the shoes on until broken in, and suggests downsizing if you feel uncomfortable with slipping, since Dr. Martens run a little big.[11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18]
