size 39 is US size 8 right?

Can anyone tell me if the color of the camel is the same as this pic, or if its closer to last season's camel IRL? I thought they looked a little more yellow (like the old camel), but this picture is giving a more rich brown than that.

Hi! This sounds like
The janette!!!

It a knee high wedge boot half leather( back) and half suede ( front) in anthracite!
Its like a cross of 2010 aniela, 2011 amely and 2012 Jacob
Here's a pic!

QUOTE=nycbagfiend;22656055]hi all!
i dropped by the IM store today intending to purchase the Jacobs but ended up walking out emptyhanded--i didn't love the fringes on me! what i did love is a pair i haven't seen mentioned here yet (or at least i don't think so)...i forgot to check the name but it's a tall wedge boot--sort of a tall version of the jacobs but without the fringe! anybody know what i'm talking about?

i surprisingly liked the lazio more then i thought i would (i'm not a huge fan of the calf hair but it's not as bad up close!)...they didn't have the blacksons or berrys out yet but should be getting them soon so waiting for those before i make my final decision on which pair (or pairs!) to get!

one last thing--although the fringes were not quite my thing, the few minutes i walked around the shop in them i found them to be quite comfortable and easy to walk in (and i'm not a heels person!)[/QUOTE]

It all depends on the lighting. But when I'm outside this is a pretty acurate look of the camel f/w 12!

yes! that's the one, ama! thanks for putting a name to it!

they didn't have my size so i wasn't able to fully know if i'll like them on me but the floor model was quite nice...sort of an elegant, slightly dressier version of the jacobs and their predecessors. with the dicker craze, it's been a while since i tried a high boot...this might fit the bill! i always wanted the aniela...this might be as close as i get!

the SA expected more sizes in so i'll give them another look when (hopefully!) my size comes in!

Here's my black Jacobs paired with the Momo jacket. SO HAPPY with the purchase. I find them to be TTS. I got these in my usual IM 38's. Again, find them to be super comfy-wedges do help. I measured the highest point from the back and they are a bit higher than 3.5"...almost 3.75" give and take. I also prefer to detach the tassels on the side as they do look bulkier on me.

Oh that's too bad the Jacobs weren't for you but the Janette looks really lovely too and classy! Hope they get them in soon so we can see your mod pix!

Which color did you try on? It took me awhile to fall in love with these but once I did, I had to have them. Worth a second shot!

Oh jellylicious, they are beautiful!!! I just can't get enough of how perfect and wonderful they look on you. IM shoes are just the best. Hands down. These boots are made for you and gosh I really wish I could get them.

Congrats on the amazing boots. I can't take my eyes off your pictures!

Omg!!! Jelly how fabulous !!! Enjoy enjoy your wonderful Jacob!!!
I like them a lot than the mony or Dana!!
I have the Dana so can't justify another fringe boot!!!
After the brown Kate I think it will be time to behave and enjoy mod pics!!!
