Oh well, I've ordered them now. I think I can do a free exchange if I need to swap the size but fingers crossed they fit!

Thanks for all your help, Honeybunch and Berries, and Merry Christmas!

Sorry, I didn't know you'd ordered them already. I'm sure the size will be fine and you could always add an insole if they're too big. Better too big than too small!

You're welcome. Merry Christmas! Make sure you post modelling pics when they arrive!

Umm, my boots haven't been despatched yet, so I could email customer service and request the smaller size. I have several IM shoes, size 39 is fine for all of them except the Bekett's where I wish I had bought size 40 as they are slightly too small. What do you advise?

It's really hard to say as I have very narrow feet so even my usual size in a lot of shoes can feel quite roomy. The Prescotts are definitely not large fitting by any means so if you sized up I'm sure it wouldn't be a huge problem but I found my usual 38 to fit me perfectly. I have the Scarlets in 38 and they're a perfect fit too. I've also tried the Sade in a 38 - again a perfect fit. Funnily enough I found the Bekkets to be small fitting too and when I tried them in a 39 they felt more comfortable than a 38, although I can still get away with a 38. Do you normally wear thick socks with boots?

No, I don't usually wear thick socks and can see me wearing opaque tights a lot with the Prescotts. The more I think about it, the more I'm inclined to stick with my usual size. I'll email them and hopefully it's not too late!

Thanks again for your help!

Hi,
it's my first post here :)
I've just ordered Jenny boots in anthracite form NAP, 50 percent off! Then I read somewhere in this thread that they shade is a bit bluish, is it true? I have dark gray dickers and the colour is beautiful, real dark gray. Bluish gray is not my thing.

I have them. They do have a bluefish tinge to the grey, but they are definitely still a dark grey. See what you think when they arrive as you can always return them if not suitable.

I tried on the Prescotts again today and I tried on my usual 38. I was wearing thick socks and they actually felt really tight on me. They would have been fine with thinner socks but I'm just letting you know that I don't think it would be the end of the world if you got the 40.

Ahh, thanks for letting me know. Did you end up buying them? I emailed NAP to change the size to a 39 but they dispatched the size 40 before they got to my email. They're attempting to recall them from DHL but there's a good chance it will be too late. Anyhow, if I do receive the 40 and they're too big they will swap them for the 39 without charging me customs again.

I noticed NAP UK site now has the Prescotts on sale, but the price is still better using the Asia Pacific site!

That's good news that they said you could exchange them without incurring more customs fees. Brilliant! The ones I tried today were the anthracite from HN and they're not in the sale! Yes, I saw them on sale on NAP UK but I really want the black version, not the anthracite. I'm still trying to decide between Bekkets and Blossoms both in all-black. Love the pony hair of the Blossoms but the Bekkets are just classic.

The only place I've seen the black Prescotts on sale is New Guard Australia, they are half price but I don't think they have your size.

Hmm Beketts, or Blossoms? Difficult one, the blossoms are in the sale but the Beketts are so classic. You could always get both??? I have the black Beketts, I love them but wish I'd bought the bigger size!!

I wasn't sure if the Beketts really suit me (the tongue looks huge on my little legs!) And I don't know if they look a bit too "sporty" for my style, if you know what I mean. The Blossoms are something different but maybe not as classic. It's so tempting that they're in the sale but I can't get both as I already bought some Choo sneakers that didn't work out and I want the Prescotts so I can't go mad buying more trainers. I've also just bought a pair of the Russell and Bromley "Highland" over the knee boots, but these may go back as I don't know if I would wear them that much.
