i didn't get blisters either, maybe because i wear it with tights and socks as well because i bought a half size bigger so my calves fit. no problem putting them on but takes me a while to take it off!!! every time i am struggling to take them off, i feel like the jumping boots are saying to me "i am so pretty, please don't take me off " ;);)
 
I know many people get blisters from wearing jumping boots - I find that inserting "lifts" in the heel keep the back of the boot from rubbing my foot in a painful way (strange, I know). Anybody else have helpful hints on avoiding blisters?

I don't get blisters from my swift Jumping (I too wear them with tights) but the back of my calves got sore though from the first couple of days of wear. Once the leather softened after a few days, no more sore back calves. I walked miles in them when I wore them in Paris.

Sigh, these pictures are making me lust for a pair of the etoupe boots...and I DON'T need a third pair of Jumping boots!

Come on sure you do. You are as crazy as I am about these boots~ the etoupe are sort of decadent~and the swift has a very different hand than the box~

Ah, the feel of swift...I know if I tried on a pair, I'd have to walk out with it.

I know, right?
The black are the most classic, and a MUST have, then next the ebene or moka or rouge H for fun and then the etoupe swift for the city elegance. You need......
Hahaha.... one pair for every day of the week.

Can I tempt you ladies?

Agreed. I have black, Rouge H and Etoupe and I am not done. I love them all.
I also do not get blisters from them. Walked all over Paris in them for a week his winter - and we did a LOT of walking - and never had an issue. I do wear some pretty thick socks with them.
They run true to size for me, although the bock pair feels slightly looser than my others.

I adore these pictures. You know I wear my boots when I am walking in NYC, Chicago or yes, like others have said, Paris. I like the low heel, nice and stable and I also love the way they look with dresses and skirts.
ms piggy your pictures of the etoupe kelly lock boots ought to push at least one tPFer over the edge.
and my dear, your tri colored Kelly~takes my breath away every time I see it.
Does Ms Kelly want to visit her American cousin?

You are SO RIGHT. I can get my boot right on, but getting them off is another story. No way to do it with grace, although I have heard a boot jack helps. I just have to call out to DH or DS to help me.
 
Best to try them on. I wear mine true to size but a few of the gals here have said they size half a size up.
thank you, it was just for the case I would order it from the hermes website....
in my store they were not really willing to help me much as I told them I was interested and asked them when they might arrive. I live quite far away from the store and cannot pop in every week....
maybe I should ask more directly there....
 
I would even put up with blisters in these!

Anyway -- I am prone to blisters in shoes (have narrow heels) but I have two pairs of Jumping boots and never got blisters in them ever.
Same here~my CLs KILL me, blisters in like 20 minutes in those. But these Hermes boots are like heaven (at least for me) I could walk to the moon and back in them~
KellyR in her boots.
