Hi guys, just an update on my Dicker saga. So the taupe got away, but I was thinking that I will def get wear out of the anthracite. So they had both 36 and 37 on farfetch with free shipping so I got both to try. I thought it would be best to have them side by side to compare. (I'm a 36.5 for anyone who didn't catch my previous meanderings on this thread...)

Should be here sometime this week so I can add some info on the sizing issue. I am almost certain the 37 will be too loose about the forefoot and ankle but lets see what happens! Hopefully I dont have to send both back...

I'm a 6 and the 36 just fits me with thin socks. I think you'll find the 37 to be perfect. I have anthracite too - love it

Well, I returned both of them!! The 36 was quite crammed at the toes. I think I could have dealt with it (painfully) but it looked stumpy on my foot. The 37 was a good length but too wide and slipped off at the heel when I walk. I would've had to buy a heel grip or wear thick socks which I don't usually like to do as its limiting... I think I'm really a 37 in length and 36 width. Way too complicated!! I think if you're closer to 6 to the 36 would be fine.

I noticed there is a huge difference between a 36 and 37 though. I think I read somewhere that in the small sizes there is a bigger difference between sizes. i.e. a 38 to 39 might be closer.

The anthracite was a great colour, but I think I wanted the taupe and I might have been willing to buy a heel grip if it was....

You could've added an insole....I do that with most of my boots. It's more comfy anyway.

So I'm picking up my white Caleen boots tomorrow. I presaled them so that I could take advantage of the Barneys purple card event. I decided that the 37 was the best size for me, but they're still a little big, so I'll be wearing them with socks, which I normally prefer to do with boots anyway.

The white Caleens are supposed to look dirty, right? I think it looks kinda cool, but this'll be my first pair of shoes I bought that are dirty when they're new.

I was able to find the Jenny leather boots in a 39. My normal US shoe size is 7.5-8, and I own the Crisi and Caleen boots in a 37 (they fit fine with gym socks). Of course, finding the Jenny in any other size at the price I want is impossible, so I'm hoping the 39 fits. Do you think it will?
