Does anyone have experience shopping at Farfetch versus Net-A-Porter and can recommend one over the other for GGDB?

I’ve bought GG from both NAP and Farfetch. Both great service and no problems with either. Farfetch has more choice but for convenience I prefer NAP for more convenient delivery options but would definitely buy from both again without hesitation.
 
So. I had the opportunity to try some Mays on today. Am I a complete weirdo for thinking they were more comfortable than the Superstars? That MIGHT also be because I think my SSs are too big. I’m a 37 in almost everything, and they feel too big. Had to size up to 38s in the Mays!
 
I’ve had one positive experience with Farfetch and a few with NAP. I suspect returns are easier with NAP if you’re in the US, as they are US based.

Nope, whatever fits your foot best. Mays don’t fit my foot well. I was a little unsure about the wedge in the ss when I got my first pair. Greatest thing ever for me.

I’m generally a fan of wedges. I just don’t understand why sizing feels so off. Am afraid to go back to the store to see about trying SS in 36. The SAs felt like vultures.

Well, they only come in whole sizes and I def see variation in the sizing, sometimes I think it has to do with the materials etc, but honestly I don’t know. I had to have one of my leather ss stretched in the toe because they ran short, I have another pair that almost feels a half size too big. Could be 37 is usually ok for you but maybe that style/pair ran large? Suede seems to run shorter from what I’ve tried on. I’m guessing GG’s don’t fit everyone because of the sizing. There are a lot of brands I can’t wear because they come in whole sizes only and one is too small and a size up is too big. Good luck finding something that works for you. Have you tried Francy’s? They run small so I need 37 in those.
At the other end of the spectrum, Common Projects run huge to me even tho I’ve read to size up. I needed 35 and I could prob wear 34.5. Wow, sorry for the lengthy reply!

No worries! Thanks so much for your reply. It's really hard to tell without trying on more. If only they were more widely available!
