Trying to decide between the plain black princetown, plain with pink rose stitching, and the slingback - any input is much appreciated ! I'm most curious about comfort / wearability between the two styles - I have 2 babies so you know how that goes [emoji4]

I have the black with the rose and love them...so comfortable and look beautiful. I wanted a plain black pair and coveted the black sling back as something a bit different and finally ordered them a month ago. They are super comfortable as well and the strap feels perfect, not too tight, and yes, a bit more secure than the strapless. To my surprise, I ended up sending them back. After comparing them to my rose princetowns,I felt for me the strapless was more flattering and better for this time of year. I think I would like them better going into fall.

I do understand your lifestyle situation but feel both styles are instantly comfortable and stay on well. You can't go wrong and will really enjoy any pair!

PS I ordered the black with the fur to change things up ( I also have the blue blooms, LOVE them, and the new flora, both so cute and summery) and can't wait to get them next month...never thought I would order them ( thought the fur might be a bit much for me) but I am now such a Gucci princetown fan!

Those are gorgeous. May I ask how long you've had them and how they're wearing in ? I would assume they're showing less creasing on the top of the shoe, with the lace ?

Havent owned them very long . So have only worn them a few times so far. The creasing isnt visible because of the lace but i know its happened because the first day after wearing them i broke them in and can feel that more comfortable crease. I found these a bit stiff on first wear and kind of hurt but they were fine on next 2 wears after. So far I highly recommend!

Hi everyone!

Did you go up a half size for your princetowns or did you find them to be tts? I just purchased a size 37.5 when I am usually a 37 and my heel fits perfectly but I'm nervous that there is too much room in the front- I don't want them to slip off when walking, especially in NYC [emoji5] I've been reading this thread and it seems this is a common dilemma. I want to try on the size 37 but I ordered these from My Theresa and already paid for shipping. Would love any feedback on how they fit after some wear - does the larger size still work or do they break in too much and get even larger? Thank you!!

Its virtually impossible to get your feet all the way to the front the vamp is narrow and i feel that the leather is very stiff at the top end of the shoe. I went half size up than my usual in all other brands and my heel sits flush on the end. I wouldn't downsize and have my heel sitting off the edge. I have owned my princetowns for about 4m now
