Hi ladies,

I need some sizing advice. I wear a size 41 in flat Chanel sandals and flats. Do you think I would need a 41 or 41.5 in a high heel Chanel pump?

I was told heels run a half size smaller than flats, is that true? :confused1:

Thanks in advance for any help!:heart:
 
Actually I have a similar question! I was thinking of ordering Chanel ballerina flats from NM as they have them in 11 and 12 (US sizing) - I was thinking of getting the 12s. Would an 11 be a European 41 or a 42, what would at 12 be?

I'm usually between a 42 or 43. I hate having big feet :crybaby:, although Paris Hilton has big feet too so I feel slightly better! The Chanel boutiques in Europe only seem to stock up to 41.

You need to ask the sales associate to give you the European sizing marked on the bottom of the shoes. The shoes are always marked in European sizing, not US sizing - the US sizing is something the US sales associates do to try to help their US clients try to figure out what size they wear. My guess is the 12 is a 42.
 
No I don't have particularly wide feet or toes. I am normally a US 9.5 or 10 and get 41s in flat chanel styles. I just don't know if I should get a 41 or 41.5 lol...Thanks for the help thus far everyone!

cuteangel777 - Chanel pumps are very true to size. But, if it's open-toe, sometimes you can slip on a half size smaller. I'm usually a half-size girl for pumps, but I can wear a full size (half size smaller) for open-toe pumps. I was able to score a pair of the patent open-toe pumps w/CC on back from cruise 08 during the Saks crazy sale. If the pumps are made of rigid leather closed-toe, chances of it getting loose are rare and do keep in mind that our feet may swell from time to time (sweat & weather issues). Hope it helps. ;)
 
Hi wai, These are gorgeous shoes. Chanel is true to size. I usually wear 37.5 and it fits me well.
