[vagabag]

Anyone own ior have seen the Lanvin sneakers? What is your review of it? Comfortable or just 'eh'? Also, how does the sizing work for the sneakers? I know the flats run small. Thanks! Here is the style I'm speaking of:

I have a pair, different color though. I wore them without socks the first time and had blisters on my heels for weeks Still love them though
I am usually a size 8 and had to go up in these to 38.5

I think I wear a half size up on sneakers. I tried them on at the store, and could wear a 37 without socks, so maybe I could fit it with a thin pair of socks too, but definitely would be pushing it with thick socks.

I usually wear 6.5 in American sizing, and 37.5 in Lanvin flats. HTH!

Did you like them? Better than, say, prada sneakers?

I can fit in them fine with a pair of low cut socks also which is what I wisely did the second time I wore them
They are fine without socks once they are broken in a bit

Queen - what made you pick them over other designer sneakers? What about them do you love? Thx!

OK honestly? I saw Michele ***** in a pair and I loved how she looked, LOL! Like she was casual but still kind of dressy and not wearing a plain ol pair of sneakers

 

[vagabag]

LOL! I will need to pull up her pic wearing them. Anyone else own these? Reviews?

I have two pairs. The patent ones I bought first took a while to break in but now they're perfect and I wear them all the time.

FYI vagabag I've never worn socks with my Lanvin sneakers and I never will.

Mine were comfy from the start but the black patent ones looked kind of stiff, almost like a hybrid between a patent oxford and a sneaker, which I didn't like at all.

But after I wore them a few times straight from the beach - feet wet and covered in sand - the leather relaxed and now I take better care of them

I returned them because my SA sent me the wrong ones lol. I ended up buying a pair of Maison Martin ones on sale at Barneys.com.

Thanks, ladies, for all the advice!

I just got my Lanvin sneakers and had to go up to 37 (I'm usually a 36). I haven't worn them yet so I don't know if they're comfortable or not, they're super cute tho!!!
