Definitely a 38 - they run true to Euro sizing. A 39 would most certainly be too big!

I bought the taupe Bobby last season, and I love them. They definitely go with everything!

A few people advised me to go 39 FR for the Bazil (pre-ordered from La Garconne)... Do the Bobby's run bigger than the Bazil?

I think the Bobbys run bigger and a bit wider. Unless you are planning on wearing them with super super thick socks, I don't think you need to size up to a 39 :)

no never washed them. i hardly ever wear them too and the white is slowly darkening. i have the same issue on all my last season beige bekkets/willow.

thanks so much for your help I will definitely look for the suede eraser!

If you already got them dirty you might want to try suede brush and "eraser" thingy. I forget the brand but I bought mine at Nordstroms, in the shoe department.

ETA: The Brand is called "Synovia," Suede and Nubuck Cleaning System. http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/synovia-...ck-kit/2865094

I do not know but I wish he would put his ugly logo on the outside of them so you can tell the difference.

yuck. Steve Madden sure makes a lot of money from ripping off other designers. Like the copycat Loeffler Randall boots - though his look so much cheaper.
