What do you think of the camel dickers that are now available from NAP? I was originally thinking of getting them in taupe but NAP are only stocking them in camel and black this season. Is camel easy to match? My wardrobe primarily consists of greys and neutrals. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!! 😊

I would love to have taupe too. Too bad they don't have them now.
Personally I don't really like the colour of the camel dickers. Too yellow/mustard like. I have a wardrobe that primarily consists of greys and blacks. Because of that I opted for the black ones.

Good luck with making a decision!

I'm very very tempted to pull the trigger this time (thought i'd be satisfied w/ a dupe)... So nap suggested to size down the next whole size for us between sizes. I know i read from past reviews here that one should take the next whole size UP. I'm a true u.s 7.5 -should i go 37 or 38 this season? Is nap usually accurate w/ sizing recommendations? TIA!

I think NAP is usually quite right regarding the fit. But I don't know how the sizing is this season. If you want to be on the safe side, maybe buy both 37 and 38 and just send the wrong ones back since the return shipping is free?

I couldn't take it anymore!! I can never tell how accurate the photos (or my monitor) represent the actual colors. Been debating for several days now on whether to order the Khaki or Gris dickers (via LaGarconne - I ordered my camels from them last season). Finally gave in and ordered BOTH. :wtf: Certainly won't keep both though as I won't get THAT much wear from them. But I think this way I can also see which color works best with my skin color and current wardrobe. I'll post pictures when I get them!

I think the camel dickers look quite yellow and the black or gris Dickers would better match your wardrobe.

I think miel was quite a bit less yellow? The camel color seems more intense.

If they are fitting at all like they have been the past few seasons, I would order size 38. I am a true US size 7 - and I wear the 37. They fit well, but I wouldn't say they are particularly roomy - so they might be a bit small for a size 7.5.
I have found that NAP is not always accurate with sizing recommendations ...

I was deciding between those two colors too! I ended up ordering the khaki. According to customer service, gris is a dark grey and khaki is a brown-ish khaki (not green as in previous seasons). Khaki sounds/looks like a great neutral to me - but we'll see. I would have liked to order both too, but I wanted black for sure, and ordering 3 pairs seemed like overkill. Plus I want to order a pair or two of the Bobby sneakers as well :)

I agree with Advo to try to purchase both the 37 and 38. But if you can't, I would suggest the following: if you think you'll wear your shoes with socks (thick or thin ones), size up. If you prefer to wear them barefoot, go down. Also, have you had you feet measured lately? One of mine is actually a 6 and the other is a true 6.5. I got the 37 and I have to wear my dickers with insoles and heel pads... I ordered the 36 this time around.

Hope this helps a little bit! Let us know what you end up with. Sizing is such an issue with these!!

I agree with willwork4bags. My left foot is a 7 and my right is a 7.5. I went with the 37s for my taupe pair a couple of seasons ago based on the advice to size down. I can only wear them barefoot--not even a thin pair of socks will fit. They are great for spring/summer, but of course no socks doesn't really work in the fall/winter. So I just pre-ordered a black pair in 38 To have the option of wearing socks.

I would definitely size up! NAP has given out wrong recommendations before, especially with Marant shoes.
I can't wait until more colors are available in Europe! so wanted the Taupe, now have to decide between Khaki and Gris. hopefully they'll be available soon!

Oh I love the Gris dickers too and was seriously leaning towards preordering them on lagarconne until I saw the new dickers on NAP which happen to be a whipping $150 cheaper! (after conversion to aud + shipping!). Oh well ....

Hi, I posted this on the "Sneakers" IM thread, but thought I'd ask here too as I've seen some discussion here regarding the sneakers as well. Apologies if it's not allowed to double post. Original question:

I have a question for anyone here who owns both Bobby and Bekket/ Bazil/ Bird/ Willow sneakers. I own the Bobby and am thinking of getting the Bird. Is the fit the same (i.e., should I take the same size as my Bobby?) and is the hidden heel the same height? I hear they Bekket/ Bird is narrower than the Bobby's, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
