Chloé Sonnie Low Sneakers

I got my shoes true to size in 35, I think one number up does not solve that problem. The heel is just too high and even hurt me already while trying it at home and walking around at home...

The inlay reduced the height to the heel of the shoe lifting my foot up - but only in the back, so in the front my toes are fine. Not to tight, even if I choose the size true to fit.

Hope that helps, also wrote you a PM. :-)
 
I had the same problem with my yeezy inertia (and with the low chloe when I tried them on).
I put in a cork inlay (about 1cm!).
They are comfy now and there is no Problem with the "static".

I love the Sonnies! I have the high-top in white...just in case I have to join a moonlanding:smile:
 
I have been searching for reviews of the Sonnie sneakers before buying and this is all I found (partially contradictory):

- true to size/more on the smaller side
- very narrow
- not for feet with a high arch
- Half size: size up
- Half size: size down
- heel too high

The length of my feet is 25.2 cm. According to the measurement I am a EU40 but most of my shoes are a 39.5 or 39 (UK6).

I have normal feet, neither very narrow not wide.

My arch is pretty high. I have issues with nearly all boots which do not have a zipper (e.g. I am not able to get my feet into the Classic Mini UGGs because of the instep/arch).

I ordered the low Sonnie sneakers in white leather in size 40 and here is my experience:

The length of the insole is nearly perfect for me. Although it looks like it is slightly too short (it is only 2-3 mm longer than my foot) the sneaker itself feels very roomy.

I had NO issues regarding the width and I am not sure why most reviewers found the sneakers to be narrow. Honestly I would say they are pretty wide and I had to tighten the strap a lot just to avoid slipping around in it.

Also I have no problems with the instep although one reviewer said she wasn’t able to close the clasp because of her high arch.

I have to open the clasp to get into the shoes and I am not able to „slip in“ but after closing there is more than 3 cm of the strap left.

The heel height does not seem to be a problem for me. There is no rubbing and the fit perfectly.

Maybe my experience will help others to decide on the style or the size.

Gonna revive this thread with my newly landed Sonnies in pink lavender :flowers: I find them super cute and comfy!

The back does not bother me a bit (at least while walking at home). I bought them true to size in 38. I’m usually 37.5/38/38.5 (European) or 7.5/8 (US) depending on the brand and type of shoe. When I have to go with a bigger size it’s usually due to my right foot which is about a half size bigger than the left one, which does not make shoe shopping an easy task :sad:
These sneakers fit perfectly (probably slightly on the loose side in the heel area) on my left foot and slightly tight on the right one. But they are not tight as in being too small. 39 would be definitely too big, especially on the left foot.

So cute!

I haven't worn mine for some time (during winter time I mainly wore boots). Just took them out for a walk and unfortunately got blisters again... :sad: Even with the inlay and the thick socks... Probably have to get higher inlays...
 
After wearing them for 3 days for a walk per day, the blistering got better and they became comfy again. Probably it is the same thing as in first time in summer wearing flipflops and getting blistering between the 1st and 2nd toe...
 
@fettfleck I got light blisters on one foot on the first two wears (I don’t think I ever had shoes apart from home slippers which didn’t give me blisters on first wears), but now they’re one of the most comfortable sneaker pairs I own! This type of socks might also help to protect from blisters:

Reviving this thread to ask for reviews on the high tops.
How is the sizing? How do you style them?
I have them in size 36 and I would say they fit on the small side, but I also prefer a bit of room in my sneakers. Curiously, the shoes themselves have a 36 stamped on the inside of the tongue, but I popped out the insoles in mine and found that the underside was stamped with 35.5 so make of that what you will. I'm typically a 36, occasionally a half size in either direction, and have a foot on the slim side of medium width. I thought I was going to have issues with the strap when I first took them out of the box as I have large claves, but it was fine. I haven't worn them a ton, but I did do a lot of walking in them the last time I wore them and didn't have any issues with blisters. They did feel stiff around the leg though and I had some sore areas, but I think that could be attributed to them needing to be broken in a little more. I mainly wear mine with athleisure outfits as I like how they look with leggings and tennis skirts.

Thank you very much for your review! I ordered them in my standard size, 39, I hope they fit! I have been having problems with shoes lately, due to plantar fasciitis.
I really hope they fit and are comfortable. I have a two year old, so I’m running around all the time.
I will update when I receive them!
They are so cute, that a colleague in the office asked me to order a pair also for her! :smile:
got them on super sale also!
 
Update on the high top Sonnies:
The shoes arrived today. Unfortunately they are too small in my usual 39. Try feet feel squeezed in the front, although they do feel a little loose on the heel. I tried on also the 40 that I ordered for my friend and they feel much better. I think I’m going to exchange them for a 40….
