Im a true 8.5, and i couldn't for the life of me figure out what EUR size I am, in european designer heels.. so I ordered the plexi in size 39 and 40, added the fact that I was too confused by the conflicted info I've read. Couldn't say that ordering 2 sizes helped since now I couldn't quite decide which should I keep.

The difference in the 2 sizes is so marginal! 39 is a bit snug at the toes box but the length is right, and the arch feels supported, it wraps round the feet like glove, comfort to walk in for such height. 40 fits nicely at the toes box, but is ever so slightly bigger in terms of length, but i could feel my arch getting tired and the heel height felt taller and harder to walked in than size 39. Could you tell the difference on the toes box fit in the picture?

39.5 is probably the best option to go but I couldn't exchange for a 39.5 since it's sold out at the site. Should I just keep 39, since I do expect the leather to loosen up with wears?

Does anyone have the Stark heels? They have a pointed toe and criss cross PVC clear straps across the toes. I just bought them in nude in my true size but one of my toes seems to be hanging off the edge so I don’t know if they’re too small or if that’s the way they’re meant to be. Can anyone advise please. Many thanks.

Thought it was easier to post pics! My 3rd toe is hanging off the edge slightly as you can see. My heel seems to be completely flush with the back.

I had those in leopard. Your toes shouldn’t be hanging off the edge. I’d suggest you try a half to a full size larger. Since it’s an open toe shoe, you can get away with going up a size.

So from the pictures do you think they look too small? They only have a full size bigger left in the shoes. I don’t want the pointed part to look too long!

The pointed front is meant to look long. I can see that your heel isn’t as flush with the shoe as it should be. You have a couple of millimeters sticking out but that could just be from the angle of the photos. From what I can tell, you need a half size larger to accommodate the back of the heel and a full size larger to accommodate the width of your foot in the front. I’d purchase the full size up and see how that works. I’d also try to hunt down a half size bigger to try but that’s just me.

Thanks for the advice. I agree, looking again at the pics, they do look a bit too small. I think half a size bigger would be perfect but I’ll order the full size as that’s all that’s available and give it a try. Do you find them comfortable?

Sounds like a good plan... please post pics once you get the bigger size :-) I find that all Gianvito Rossi shoes are comfortable. Way more comfortable than any other designer shoe I own. However, I always have to go a half size bigger in his closed toe shoes and a whole size bigger in his open toe styles. I hate it when my toes and my heel sticks out of any open toe shoe even if its slight lol... just keep in mind that the pvc will stretch, mold and conform to your foot from the warmth of your feet so keep them on and walk in them for a bit to make sure your foot doesn’t end up sliding forward after a while.
