Isabel Marant Boots thread!

[drati]

I just saw that this has happened to a lesser extent on the inside of the heel of my Dixies. I had no idea the wooden stack was just veneer. Argh! Lucky it's on the front facing part of the heel so I'm not going to worry about it. But it's a bit scary to see how easily the veneer comes off. I thought these boots were more durable than this. I wouldn't know how to get it fixed, on mine it seems impossible to pull the veneer back into place.

Hi ladies!

This is unfortunately the state of my Dicker heel after a recent run in with the escalator...I was horrified when it happened! I don't even know what to do, the wood is ruined! Does anyone have any experience with repairs from IM? Short of replacing the heel...I don't know if a cobbler would be able to do anything! Help!

No, my normal IT size is 40: I take 39 for F&B and 41 for Dickers.

My normal IT size is 37 and I wear a 36 in F&B 37 in dicker.
I wonder if the difference is how they fit? What I mean, my dicker boots fit like a glove (very little room in length and width). They felt a little tight when I first put them on and after one wear they stretched. I could have worn a 38 but I would have had heel slippage. Some people don't like the snug fit.

I ordered Jenny's from NAP in what they label a French 37(my true IT size), and they are due to arrive today. I'll let everyone know how the fit compares to my 37 dickers. NAP states they run TTS.

You can change the language setting easily and when switch from one language to another from your keyboard with just one touch.

Thanks a lot for this tip

Last season NAP was stating the shoe was running one size large, this year they are saying TTS?

This is completely the way the sizing ran for me.

I called Barneys but I only had the style # for the navy ones and could not find it for the ones you have. They have a navy in 37 but its damaged they tell me.

I am a 37 like you.

Have you tried Nida boutique in SF? They have a few left, not sure in your size though. What size are you looking for?

Have you tried calling Barney's to see if they have any left? I returned a pair of sz 37 in Dec. But they might be gone by now.

Yes, I think it all depends if you like a snug fitting or prefer a little more room. I'm the latter, I walk a lot so I prefer shoes that are comfortable to start with. I haven't noticed my heels slipping with my Dickers, maybe I'm so used to them that I don't notice, lol!My feet a long and thin, I could have taken a 40 but I don't like my toes touching the point of the shoe (if that makes any sense!) so, considering all this, I decided to size up with the Dickers.

This is where I think the size confusion comes in. When I called around for my first pair of dicker boots, one shop told me to choose a size 38 and another shop told me to go with the 37. I was told they should fit snug out of the box because they stretch.
My 37's have never felt uncomfortable because they stretched right away.

I've been looking for the cleane boots 38 as well and saw it popped up in BNY twice and twice my orders got cancelled. So frustrating! Anyway, i ended up with the gatsy pumps in beige stripe zebra. I'm still comtemplating on them but with the boots, there wouldn't be any doubts.

Has anyone gotten their Jennys yet from Barneys? I'm still waiting on mine. It's so frustrating that I preordered them in November and now they've popped up (and shipped!) from NAP. Barneys is so slow!

No, I gave up and ordered them from NAP. They are coming today!
If they fit, I'm going to order the khaki from international NAP.
I need to call Barney's and cancel my pre-order.

I ordered mine from NAP yesterday and they've shipped today, so probably will get them early next week. I'd just cancel the order from Barney's if possible and order from NAP.

My Jenny boots are here! They are really cute!
They fit like dicker boots- TTS.
NAP says they are French sizing, La Garconne says they are IT sizing. La Garconne is correct. I wear a size 37 EU and a size 37 IM shoe.

Leaning heavily towards the khaki now! What an ordeal this is, I almost feel like not buying the Dickers. I am going to order from NAP and if either the colour or size is wrong I can easily return. An Australian stockist is going to get the taupe and khaki in a few weeks but they are not in Melbourne where I live AND the boots are almost 800 bux! Ripped off!

I'm really happy with my khaki Dickers (see earlier photos) in my usual size (38, and yes I'm a 37 in F&B). If anybody wants more photos in different light let me know Such tough decisions, but worth it!

Cool! Just curious, what size do you wear US, I wear a 7.5 or 8 normally and ordered a 39 in the Jenny, still trying to figure out if that was the right choice. I don't have the dicker boots so I can't really compare sizing with those.
