^^ most definitely
I made sure to spray mine with apple garde and I've never worn them in the rain - they look barely used. The style definitely holds up as well!
Congrats to everyone who scored a pair on NAP

according to NAP's item measurements, the circumference ranges from 10.5"-12", depending on the size you need.

Anyone? I want to buy them but I need some answers first
Mandicakes,
I really appreciate your help; I'm glad to hear that they will stretch from this very very tight fit and I will tryk to break them in at home instead of taking them to the cobbler..
Still thinking of returning them though, as my husband and I decided a few days ago that we will stop by Paris on our trip around France and Italy in about two weeks.. Very tempting to pay 335 instead of 424 (+ shipping) at NAP, however, only concern is whether it will be possible to find them in the IM stores there.. Any of you have an idea of the availability there? I guess that I'm not that updated as to the availability of the Dicker boots, as I haven't been looking for them, just happened to see them on NAP; when I read some of the previous posts in this thread, it looks as if you should be lucky to find this pair in taupe.. So maybe a bit risky to let these go.. Anyway, I have a few days before I need to decide..
Also just bought winter jacket (Xity jacket) and some awesome grey pants (not sure of the name), however, they may go back to the store, if I decide to take a chance and look in Paris instead where the selection is much wider and prices lower. As you all know, you have to buy immediately when the clothes/shoes hit the stores, as everything sells out so quickly, actually a bit stressful...

oh! haha...sorry...I assumed b/c that is what everyone is talking about right now. which boots are you looking at?
They're not the dicker boots
Haha it's okay, I understand because a lot of people are eyeing them these days! Here are the ones I'm looking at atm, only in a different color. I'd say I have normal calves but always need to size up @ZARA and I ordered these Balenciaga boots and found that they were way too snug.
ETA: added the IMs as an attachment.

Just received my Dicker boots from NAP- I'm beyond excited. The taupe color sort of varies with lighting. To me, it can be sage, taupe, sandy, olive - very versatile.
As for sizing, I took a chance with the 37 and they fit perfectly. I've never tried on the past seasons boots, but I'd say that this season's run TTS to half a size large, depending on your foot shape. I think I have an average-width foot. It is really difficult to measure the insole of these boots, but the length of my foot is about 9" when flat, and slightly shorter when arched. The widest part of my foot is 3". With the size 37 Dickers, I still have about half an inch of space in the front of my toe; so I have room for a thin sock and perhaps a small insole. The width of the Dickers is 3.25", so the width for me is perfect.
90% of my shoes are a US size 7; I also have few 6.5 and a few 7.5. When it comes to European sizing, I've been anywhere from a 36.5-38. I followed the sizing advice in a previous post (someone suggested that if you are 7-7.5, buy the 37); Size 38 would have been huge. I hope this helps anyone with specific questions about sizing!

I just ordered my taupe in 37 and beyond excited. Someone on this thread said to email matches and they were so helpful! Retail price and shipping were about $525. But in scared of the Ups import an duty taxes from shipping from the uk to us. Does anyone know about how much that would be???
I'm in the US too; NAP included them in the final price so I was not charged upon delivery...for me is was £28.75.
Hi there,
For all of you looking for the IM Dicker boots in taupe...!!!
I just visited Matches website and they have all sizes right now at a price of 408 + shipping (a bit cheaper than NAP). If you search by designer, you will not get any products shown, however, if you look under shoes, you will find them + the trainers in black and white + the knee-high fringed boots from A/W 11.
Here is a link directly to the dicker boots:

This is a re-post since it was lost when tPF was corrupted.
Regarding being a half since (I'm a standard size 36.5 or US 6.5), in the new season IM Dicker boots I took a size 36. They are not even tight on me and I still have a bit of room. I've found they definitely run large so if you're a half size I would size down. The size 37 would have been massive on me.
I hope this helps...
Oh in the new season Bekket sneakers I also took a size 36. I originally ordered the size 37 from NAP and these also were too large. The size 36 was perfect
