I absolutely think you can wear the fur to work! My husband hates mine but I love them :) and all of my friends love them.
I had bunions - so my feet are sensitive. I have 2 pair of Princeton’s and they are wonderful. Good luck

Thank-you so much for the response

Which two do you have? I’m tempted to get the pink regular and the black fur

These are not mine but, I have a pair in black with lamb fur. I have worn them to very formal and casual occasions. Since I am a business owner I do not have to answer to anyone but, I would totally allow these in an office atmosphere. They can be very elegant and whimsical depending on how you dress. They look great with lightweight wool pants or dark jeans if your office allows that. If you're on the fence about getting them I say get them. Although not "practical" they are a very comfortable and beautiful shoe even when distressed like the picture I posted.

Ok ladies, I am in desperate need of advice!

I found a pair with the bows and fur on sale and I went for it. I'm not sure if I should keep them or put the money towards the Jordaans with fur. I'm at a place money wise where I can treat myself from time to time, but not where I can splurge left and right. If these weren't on sale I definitely wouldn't have been able to justify getting them (still not sure if I can!).

I originally didn't like the Princetowns at all, but seeing them over and over again I've fallen in love. They're like the grown up version of Uggs. I'm a total sparkle girl, so I find the bows insanely gorgeous. I'm just not sure how practical they are. I have a pretty large shoe collection and I like to rotate which I wear, I'm just not sure what exactly to pair these with. In my head I immediately see the holidays with a nice midi circle style skirt, but beyond that I'm not sure. Any ideas?

My other question is regarding the fur itself. I feel like they might be a bit bare (especially the right shoe). I went to Bergdorfs to try on some pairs to find out my size (had to order these online) and I noticed that some pairs are a lot furrier than others. Are these not furry enough? Also, in the left shoe by the toes there's one little spot that's bunched up and goes right into my toes. Will that end up smashing down with wear? I'm thinking that eventually it would mellow out, but I'm already asking a bazillion questions so why not one more haha.

For reference for anyone trying to figure out sizing, I got the Princetowns with fur in a size 36. I could definitely fit in the 35.5, but my foot was right at the back and I don't like to wear my shoes like that. I am a size 34 in the Jordaans without fur (not sure about with fur yet). In CL I am usually a 35, but sometimes 34.5 fits better and I can sometimes do 35.5 with inserts.

So sorry to be that person who bumps, but my time to return is coming to the tail end.

Thanks to those who liked my post! Was just wondering if there are any other opinions out there. Are they too impractical? Or are they just so beautiful that I havveeee to keep them? I got them for a little less than the regular fur ones cost for reference. Definitely the most I've spent on one pair of shoes and TBH I'm feeling a little guilty. But then if I return idk if I'm going to regret it because I've been drooling over them since I first saw them. Ugh what to do!? :no::yes::facepalm:

@ProShopper1 They’re impractical if you won’t wear them, but from the sounds of your original post, you seem to really like them, plus the bows are so cute and fabulous, so I think you should keep them and just enjoy wearing them. I have a non fur pair and I kind of wish I had bought fur ones instead because they’re so much more comfortable.

Debating between these velvet Jordans or plain black Princetown. I currently have Gold Princetown. Which would you choose? Plain black Jordan is also a possibility. Thanks!

Practically plain black as you’d probably get more use. I like princetown. However, those velvet are pretty special and a nice change from what you have. Ugh I’m no help. Can’t go wrong here.
