Hi everyone looks like I missed out on the 37 taupe dickers on farfetch. Darn!! Was about to make the commitment, sob, sob...

Anyways, had a look at NAP and they advised to take the 36 if I'm usually an IT36.5 as it runs large to size. Is that a load of rubbish?? From what you guys have said its not true... confused again. But want to believe them cos there's a 36 left....

Hey princess mia do they come up often on farfetch? Will I have to wait long before another?

Yeah NAP is definitely wrong. They say its french sizing but it is european? I compared all my european size 37 boots and they are identical to my dickers.. So definitely don't go by NAP suggestion imp.

Not sure how often new ones come up but if I guess I would say when new season comes out? Maybe email them I am sure they will be able to assist. good luck !

Ok thanks, I wish I was a whole size, would take out the possibility of going up or down. Just considering it as I have managed to wear 36s in the past - I like boots to be snug around the forefoot so they look nice and sleek...

I wear the 36 in Dickers even though I'm usually a 36.5. The leather stretches out in my experience. The 37 had a lot of room in the toe for me and the Barneys SA told me I should size down instead.

I think the picture is 'brown'. IRL its a bit darker and more chocolatey.. Look back at the photos i posted of my brown boots for a more accurate colour

Thanks for your reply. Now I'm confused!! So when you first wore them, did your toes touch the tip of the shoe? Was it pretty tight across the foot? Better still would you know the length of your longest foot?

Yes I would think they'd stretch but concerned they might lose they're shape...

Has anyone seen a pair of black suede dicker boots in the UK or for shipping to UK or are these out of season now? There is a pair in Selfridges but they are actually a dark blue rather than a black so worried they will look obvious when worn with black jeans...

Mytheresa and Matches have the suede Dickers in Anthracite, you might want to check those out. ;)

Update on my Dickers and their sizing: I got to try on the boots in 39, and they were HUGE. They were particularly loose around the ankles, so even though I'm a 38,5 the 39 in was clearly not an option. If you are a half-size and have skinny feet and ankles, I'd say sizing down is a better bet than sizing up. The Dicker in 38 is quite snug, but miles better than the next size up, which was unwearable. I guess it all depends on the type of feet you have...

Hey, everyone.

I have a pair of Crisi boots in a 37. They fit fine when I bought them, but after wearing them about once a week for the last few months, they're now a little loose, even with socks, but they're still OK.

The suede Dickers in a 37 fits perfectly, with just a teeny bit of wiggle room in the toes.

I am debating on the size studded Caleen I should get. I was able to find a 36 online, but I found the 37 in a store. I tried it on with a thin sock, and it was pretty much slipping off my feet. It definitely wasn't that way with the Crisi when I bought it. But since the 36 is a whole size down, do you think it'd be too tight? Does the leather stretch?

Sometimes it's hard to get IM boots to fit right due to no half sizes, but from your size references I think you'd be fine in the 36 Caleens unless you want to wear thicker socks with them. I wear a 38 in Dickers with not much wriggle room in the toes and 37 Caleens are a better fit for me than the 38s. HTH :)

Thanks. Your input helps a lot. I have narrow feet, so I think the 36 would be better, but yes, if IM made 1/2 sizes, it'd be so much easier!

I ordered the Caleen in 36, and they should arrive in about a week. I'm hoping they'll work, since the only 37 I was able to find has a big blue ink stain on them (and the retailer won't discount-grrr). I'm planning on wearing them this spring and summer (and even winter, since I live in a dry hot climate) and to Coachella next year (I missed out this past year--just couldn't get my schedule to match up--but I'm determined to get there next year).
