Ok so I bought my Princetowns home and tried them on around the house and am just wondering about the fit. When I have them on I have about a thumbs width between my big toe and the top of the shoe, but the back of my foot sits where it should be and when i push my foot in as much as i can i have about 1/4 cm of space at the heel. So my question is should the front fit like this with a gap?

What about the sling back Princetowns? I have found some references around here but no firsthand experiences... I have tried the normal Princetown several times but they just don't feel confortable, too slippery for me (I have a very thin foot). Love the style so I think the sling backs may be the answer. Anyone has those?
I was the same as you too and now I'm obsessed. I have the plain black pair and am dying for it to warm up again so I can wear them. With that being said, I'm going to go against the others and say that if you can find the black with the embroidered rose (I think that is the pair you are referring to) get them! They're so hard to find and soooo cute. I kind of wish I'd started with that pair, although you cannot go wrong with the plain black pair either.
Get them! I'm eyeing them too even though I already have a plain black non-slingback pair.
I just received my Princetown mules in Gold. They are my first pair and the fit is perfect. I went a half size up. For reference I am a 37 in Marmont mid heels, but got a 37.5 in Princetown. I love the look and they're extremely comfortable right out of the box, but the Gold color is very bright.
Just got mine a few days ago, they are so much softer and more comfortable than the regular mules. I have a normal width foot and they instantly felt like the comfiest shoes ever. The slingback makes them way easier to walk in as well. I ordered them and my mules a half size up!
I have the slingbacks. They use a the softer leather (like the Brixtons) so will be comfortable from the start. You might also consider using inserts with the Princetowns.
Totally. Now I am torn - should I get them with or without fur?!!? Birthday is in April.......... I think they will be my pick!!!

I'm bummed. Just returned from London, where all the shoes are much cheaper (Brexit is pummeling the pound!). In everything I liked 39.5 was too small (leaving marks on my toes when walking in the store for 5 minutes) and 40 was too big (like fit a finger behind my heel inside the shoe big). Also oddly, the 40 in the princetown was big...much bigger then the 40 I tried on in the US. I talked to another shopper who said in the UK she ordered and returned (to Gucci) the Jordaan loafer 3x, in the same size, before she got a pair that fit. Lastly the colors of the brown and red Jordaan varied greatly...from very washed out (looked faded) to deep brown and cherry red. The other shopper ventured to guess that the crazy demand has caused rushed production...thus inconsistent construction. I think I agree 
Oh, and I can verify in London the best prices are at LHR (shops in Terminals 2,3 &5 on the plane side of security) because they are already VAT (tax) free when leaving the country and you don't have to pay any fees to Global Blue (the tax refund for profit company).
I am happy to report I finally wore my white Ace floral sneakers (trainers, lol). I walked for hours and they were so comfy. I was close to purchasing another pair, maybe the bees or hearts...because I know they fit!
oh ya, lastly, interestingly the Marmots are about $50 cheaper in suede than smooth leather...go figure...they are the same price in the US.

How much cheaper in LHR? I'm in the US and the black pair with rose embroidery is $750 usd.I'm bummed.

I really LOVE these. How versatile are they? By versatile I mean practical. I have no fear of wearing show stopping shoes but what do you wear them with? And how often can you wear them without getting them dirty? Thanks!
