I spray my boots with suede weather protector straight out of the box. Then I use a suede eraser bar & brush to clean them when they get scruff marks. If you don't have an eraser bar I highly recommend it. Last week I managed to get vit E oil off my light khaki Dickers. It took a while but now you can't even tell. You can get a suede cleaning kit anywhere. Drugstores, Target, shoe repair shops, eBay, etc... It's good to brush & clean your suede before you spray them if you've worn them. Hope this helps.
I finally ordered the dickers in camel and received them today from NAP. I normally wear 37 and the 37 fits perfectly. It's snug around the width at the moment but I'm sure the leather will soften up after a few wears. There's still a bit of room around the toebox. The camel is quite gorgeous! I'm so happy I got them. Now I want the gris.
Congrats! I first bought camel too and I just bought the gris. You will love them!
I like the camel more for summer, fall/spring and the gris for the winter (because I wear more black and grey then). But both colours will go with everything
Just do it!
Do you wear IT37 or US 7, and ordered the IM dicker in FR 37?I finally ordered the dickers in camel and received them today from NAP. I normally wear 37 and the 37 fits perfectly.

I keep wondering why they're selling out everywhere else except NAP.
Really fancied the toffee colour at mytheresa (I think) but missed them!
Does anyone know what 'toffee' relates to in the usual colour scheme (like camel, khaki, etc)?

Really? I thought they looked slightly different to the khaki I had seen on Matches. Just goes to show how varied the images are - every shade looks different when photographed in various lighting situations. So tricky!
Was struck by the camel too, it seems like a nice, warm colour.

I've never had the suede change colors after spraying. I know it's a possibility, but maybe that's just a warning they have to put on the can? Just spray evenly from a nice distance and whatever you do- don't soak the boot.
My Camel dickers from NAP just arrived. This is true color/no flash... Am quite pleased with the Camel, as I was so torn between Khaki and Camel and feared that the Camel would appear more like "chestnut" shade like ugg chestnut. Or just more orangey brown shade as i have seem depicted on some images on-line- but it is not! It is the perfect neutral that I was wanting.
Furthermore, I got a 40. I quickly tried it on barefoot and felt a slight slipping in heel, however, I wear thin socks with this type of boot. Sock Dreams feeds my sock obsession. I have a thin foot and generally would be a US 9... Almost all of my shoes are euro sizing and I vary from 39-40. However in ankle uggs I wear an 8... There is NO way i would ever wear any larger than US 9 and the 40 in the Dicker is perfect for me! Thanks for all who gave feedback! I am thrilled!

I think NAP just restocks faster. I was trying to decide on colors the week of July 23-27 and NAP was out of stock in Camel and my size and I was about to order from LG and happened to look on 7/26 and NAP got new stock overnight.
I think these are the camel boots (?), image from LaGarconne:
They seem like a different shade in every pic.

YES! exactly- that is what i have noticed too- i did not want them to be light sand color but also hoping not quite as dark as they appeared in this picture that you posted- only because i was hoping for the shade to be all season and was afraid that if they were so dark that they would not look as cute with denim shorts as i have seen styled for S/S... being that i live in hotter than hades Texas, the whole pre-fall thing just breaks my heart and is torturesome- fall is my absolute favorite season- next is winter and i die to wear transition pieces- and was hoping that this Camel dicker would work- and much to my delight the color/shade is everything i had hoped for and more- and TBH it is the pictures i have seen on this thread that comforted me enough to order the Camel, as i was leaning toward khaki based on the shopping site pics-
