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?

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 :)

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!

Thank you guys for all the info! I'm more positive now that 38 would be best. Although havin 2nd thoughts about the color. Yellowish huh? :thinkin: i guess putting off another season won't hurt, and wait for a true taupe!

I have the taupe from a couple of seasons ago and while it's a great colour, I like the warmer tones of Miel and Camel for summer. Just another thought :p

I wear a size 7 and 37's are a great fit. If you are closer to a 7.5, I think you might feel more comfortable with a size 38? I know lagarconne recommends sizing up for 1/2 sizes.



You should order them! I bet they would be quite versatile and nice with summer colors.

I just received the black dickers in 37 from NAP.
They're definitely too snug for my US 7/7,5.
And I didn't like the black with a light coloured heel. So after I saw the pictures on La Garconne I decided to give Camel a go in size 38! Better to have an option with insoles then the feeling of bursting out of your shoes.
I'll give an update when I receive them next week.

Hopefully the Camel Dickers will work out better for you :)

I'm a bit confused about the sizes now for dicker boots.. NAP and La Garconne has FR sizing, but Matches has EU. I bought my black dicker boots in size 36 last season, and the box says IT36. I just need the smallest size as even the size 36 I bought was big on me! Any help/clarification would be great!!

I would say the Dickers go by EU sizing - so a size 36=US 6. As far as I know, sizing for the boots would run the same as last season.

It's just a lot cheaper on any euro site. Guessing it's the import duties for US merchants?

I've found that it's cheapest to buy European brands from euro or uk sites and American labels from US sites. Thanks for the heads up on the Dickers from Matches! Ended up getting them from matches and taking advantage of their free worldwide shipping at the moment.

i'm actually liking the khaki at the moment. it's not as yellow as camel and not as green as last season's khaki. with the free shipping, it was a pretty good deal (or so i tell myself!). :)

Yes, it does look quite neutral. My only worry is that it's too close to my taupe. Also, Matches is more expensive that NAP.

The khaki color looks great on Matches - looks like a great neutral color that can be worn with everything. If the camel is the same shade as last season, I'm not really a fan - it's quite yellow/orange in person.

Yes, I agree. I don't want too yellow boots either - does anyone know how long the free shipping on Matches last?

Hope the khaki colour turns out as pictured on the Matches website as the pics shown on La Garconne appear to be slightly more brown. The free ship code for Matches is FREE06 so may be a june promotional offer and may not be valid for much longer as we tick over to July? With the free ship the total cost works out great - cheaper than NAP and almost 30% cheaper than La Garconne.
