What is the general opinion on La Garconne? I'd like to order from them, I get the impression that they're a little slow, but otherwise has anyone had a real problem? I'd like to be sure that returns aren't a huge issue, since this would be my first pair of Isabel Marants and I'm not 100% sure of size.

I have purchased from them several times. I have had one slow shipment on a pre-order, but I find them easy to work with, in terms of returns and exchanges. IHTH!:flowers:

Ugh... I haven't ordered from La Garconne too often but I just made my first return to them. It took them 9 business days/13 days to even email me that they got my return of two t-shirts. I called them, left a voicemail, and emailed 3x before I got ONE email back.

I don't know what the gigantic delay was but I don't remember them being this slow before. :/

Now the email they sent says it will take 7 business days before they even issue me a refund.

I have ordered from them and they are very slow to ship or respond to emails. Was thinking of doing a return but seems too much of a hassle and expensive for international customers. Don't think I will be ordering from them unless they have something I really really want.

Any non-US tpfers done returns or exchanges with them? Do they charge additional shipping fees for exchanges?
 
Does anyone have multiple pairs of these boots? I have the suede taupe dickers and now black leather dickers - but I'm thinking of getting the tan leather or chocolate leather too. Is that overkill? I have black and tan Rachel Comey Mars boots as well. No chocolate though.

thoughts?

If you wear them a lot, why not?
 
Hi all, I've just spent the last few days trawling through this entire thread and am now addicted to the idea of the IM dickers.

I bought my first pair on the weekend, a leather pair in bronze as I'm quite uncoordinated and was worried about ruining a suede pair. But after all these posts, I'm convinced I need a lighter pair in suede! Am thinking of camel suede from NAP as they don't look too yellow according to people's photos.
Anyway, thought I would post a couple of pics of my leather dickers in case anyone wants to know how they look (I know everyone else's photos have been uber helpful for me). These are taken in natural (overcast) light:

The box says bronze so I'm assuming that's what it is? There was only black and bronze leather available so I can't say how it compares to the chocolate.

I got it at Liberty (London) for £385.

Presumably since the size 37 fits fine in the leather, I can just order the same size in the suede?

Oh no! So sad...I've had this happen to me a couple of times with dark boots/clothing, and they did eventually stop, but it was so frustrating in the mean time. I hope you figure out a solution soon, as those boots are too gorgeous not to wear!
 
Purchased my Isabel Marant Khaki Dickers today at her store in NYC. LOVE THEM... While I was there Kim Kardashian and Kanye were shopping too. I did not get a good picture of them though : (

So I tried on the Khaki and the Camel, went home with Khaki (the more greenish toned ones)

I just received these gorgeous cognac leather Dickers today. They run true to size- same as the suede ones. La Garconne is selling them if you're interested (also black & bronze). These boots are super comfy right off the bat. I can't wait until their broken in & distressed. I'm anticipating that they only get better with age.
