I’m sorry yours have the same issue. My new replacement ones came and they have it too, but not as bad. So, I’ll just keep them.

Hahah now I fear they'll send me a pair with an even worse problem :P
One foot was a bit better than the other, I could live with it. But the other one was reeaaally disjointed. You could see they were two separated "rubber bands" (can't think of a better term) that should have been merged but something went wrong.

They are very nice, though, aren't they?

That’s exactly how mine were, maybe it has something to do with the suede, not sure. I do love them!!!!

Yes... I considered just keeping them and trying to forget about it, but I could really jam my fingernail into that weird space... And the separation made the whole thing irregular, not smooth when I touched it and slid my hand through it.
I don't know if I'm being too nitpicky or not, but it seems like a defective item to me. I was afraid the thing would be falling apart at the seams (literally) on me in no time.

They will take a while to arrive now, but I hope they do inspect the shoes carefully this time (at least the rep said she would be making a note requesting that...). :smile:

I’d have to get a new pair too, it would bug me and I wouldn’t be able to let it go. LOL
And you’ll want this pair to be good. It’ll be a staple. I just love them.

Thank you guys for not making me feel like I'm a super picky buyer (although I... kinda am)!
Yeah, I know me, if I didn't try to replace them, I just know every time I looked at them I'd be in constant fear/regretting not doing it haha

Well, when the new pair comes I'll update you guys (on this suuuuper important matter that I'm sure is keeping you on the edge of your seats). I just hope they're good!

Sinyard and chiisaibunny, thank you so much for the recommendation, though!

What is the sizing on the superstars? I'm a US 9. I have heard small and I have heard TTS? Will a size 40 work for me?

I’d risk saying a 39 would fit you.
I’m a 6.5/7, and the 37 fits me well with a bit of wiggle room. So it is TTS for me when it comes to all SS I’ve ever tried on.
But I’d wait for other members who are also a 9 to confirm that. I think Sinyard wears a 39? She’ll probably be able to assist you better.

Thank you! I'm hoping the 40 won't be too big. I took the risk and ordered the 40 because they seem to sell out fast. I saw a girl at my local mall wearing a pair and she said they ran TTS for her (size 9) but then I found a few online reviews and they said small *sigh* good thing matchesfashion has free shipping and returns. If I were thinking I would have ordered both sizes.

Ah, I hope it works for you, then!
Who knows, maybe the one you chose runs small... that can happen from batch to batch, I think.
Ordering online is always a guess game, but yay for free returns in case things don’t work. I hope it’ll fit though! :)

I’d think you’d need the 39, I think the 40 will be too loose but hopefully I’m wrong! I’m a 8.5 9 or 9.5 in shoes and sneakers (9 or 9.5 in Nike) and I wear a 39 in all the GG styles.

Thanks for your reply. I'm a true US 9 (size 9 in Nike) 7 (M) in Addidas-it sounds like I will be returning them and will have to wait it out for a pair in a size 39.

Can you cancel your order if it didn’t ship yet? I tried the 40 when I first started out they were too loose and the 38 was way too small. I don’t have a narrow foot at all and I have a higher arch. You’ll love them!!!

These are the silvery mesh ones? How do you like the material? I was wondering how durable they'd be!
Very nice though.
Love the bag too!

Thank you! I love the Chloe Marcie bag, It’s perfect for a busy mom that needs to be hand free like myself. I just got the tan too, can’t wait to use it.

As for my GG they are the version before the silvery mesh. These have the white back tab and the material is a thick mesh. They are still online. I just adore them!

You're never too old for GG! Maybe I look silly but I don't care! I'm 61 and have the silver leather midrise and a dirty white Superstar with some gold and silver sequins. I found they run small and narrow. I wear a 10 and had to get 41 and still have to unlace them way down to get them on and use footies instead of socks to fit into them. JME.
