Is the one on the bottom right the Archive slides with blue detailing? I have that too! Looooooove 'em.
I have a thing for leopard sneakers too.

Yes, it is! I love leopard too. I’m thinking of getting the mid star leopard that’s out right now. I had the leopard midstar with shearling from Matches but ended up selling them a few months ago .
 
IQUOTE="daevy, post: 32158675, member: 638239"]I haven't worn them out because I live in Minneapolis, and Spring is taking its sweet time to get here. In fact, it's snowing out today. So, not sneakers weather, especially not pristine white and hand painted ones.
They are all leather, though, so I imagine not as comfortable as your suede ones. I have finicky feet, no shoes are ever super comfortable on me (besides, well, ugly UGGs), so these are good, but I believe I'll have to break them in a bit before they get truly comfy.
The floral pattern is absolutely lovely! I don't think I'm a girly girl, but I can totally pull these off just fine, just like I wear combat boots or leopard sneakers. The only thing I don't like to do when it comes to shoes is super bright colors, go figure.

I'll post a picture of the floral one later for you!![/QUOTE]

Haha, yeah, yellow glitter is not an everyday shoe. but potentially a lot of fun. And I like animal prints, it just has to be one I’ll wear. I’ve seen a few recently that I think I’d wear but I’m thinking a more spring/summer shoe is next. And I’m thinking color. There’s a ‘denim’ pair I was looking at but I’m not sure how versatile it will be and I think it will sell out before I decide.
Yes, please post modeling pics when the weather cooperates. I do think they’d be cute, I might even wear them, but they’d prob fall out of rotation. I’d feel weird wearing them. LOL
 
I meant all of my leopard animal “hair” ones! Lol I’ll attach a pic of some of them. View attachment 4014498

Wow, we’re seeing a hint of your collection. Pics would be amazing. When did you start your collection? Do you have pics or do you remember all the diff shoes?

I’m trying to figure out if the mid star, francy, and slide fit similarly enough to Superstar that you’d get the same size? Or a diff size? I read somewhere, and I don’t remember which style, that one of the three tends to run wider? So ppl might want to size down? I’m curious what ppl think of the sizing.

So, I have limited experience, but I take a size smaller on the slides. They are my favorite style. I don't like the looks of the Francys much, but I've never tried them on, so it's not a based opinion.
I fell in love with a mid star once and ordered it, but when it came, I was disappointed. Not that they weren't cute or well made or as comfortable as the others, it's just that I felt like they cut me on the least flattering part of my leg. They don't show any ankle and at the same time stop at a funny place. That's just me, though.
My regular size worked well for it. Maybe it's worth a try. :)

Here are a couple of quick, lousy quality pictures for you, just to give you an idea.
Excuse the very yellow lighting and my very pale veiny legs. I’d say winter is to blame, but they’re like this all year round.

Oh they’re so cute. They look good on you. They’ll be great when it warms up.

My legs are no diff even tho I live in SoCal. Haha I wear jeans to work so my legs don’t get much sun except on weekends. It is to laugh for ppl in other parts of the country, but we’ve been having some cooler temps in high 50’s-60’s during the day and it’s been nice. (those are spring temps when I lived in Oregon, it meant everyone was wearing shorts!) Last few years we didn’t really have that ‘cooler’ spell and the summers were long and hot, drought years. It hasn’t rained very much again this year, where I live, so that’s been a bummer.
I figure one of these days I’ll find a more feminine pair I like and I’ll take the plunge.

Thanks for the info. I’m curious, do the slides feel wider or mainly longer? I prob want to stay away from a style that runs wider.

Personally my slides are a size down from my superstars, but that's because I'm very much a 37.5 foot who can't find her perfect match. I know @sinyard has said hers are all the same size.

I *think* they are a bit wider, but I’ll try to compare my SS and slides when I have some time to spare later on today and maybe post some pictures.

From what I gathered reading most of the post in this thread: I have the impression that most people go down one size for slides, take their normal size for SS, Francys and Mid Stars, and apparently go up one size for the Mays.
Of course, this is not set in stone. Sinyard said a few posts back hat she takes the same size in the slides, francys and SS (I think she also mentioned mid stars, but I’m not certain).
 
Much prefer the one on your left foot!
You mean the floral ones I posted today? I don't see which post you were referring to!
But if it was about the floral sneakers... They are from the same pair, but not identical/mirrors to each other :)
(sorry if I totally missed the mark and you were talking about something else entirely)
