I know I reviewed the 37 previously, but I'm a little worried I need a 36 instead...I feel that the 37s may stretch too much! Has anyone tried both sizes? How much different are they in length/width?

hey lotusfire, I recieved my dickers from NAP a few days ago in taupe, size 36 and imo I feel they are a little bit narrow then last season dickers. I would almost say that this season dickers are a little smaller not by much but you can feel it is a little more snug around the width of the foot and I have normal feet.
 
I was wondering, do the current release Dicker boots run true to size? Heaps of posts and the listing on NAP say they do this season, unlike past seasons that ran small and people had to order up a size. I ordered a size 36 which has been my size in her shoes the past season, but I'm nervous about the sizing... Any help would be appreciated
hey mandicakes, I received a pair from NAP and personally I feel they still run small even smaller then last season dickers in my opinion. This season dickers seem a little more narrow around the width of my foot.
 
I have just been to Paris and they are nearly sold out everywhere. Printable still has 40 in Taupe and several sizes in Black.

I managed to get a 39 from the IM store in Bastille. The 40 I bought online was really big. I am a 39.5 and always size up for shoes but these were too big. The 39 is a little tight but the sales assistants told me they would stretch a lot.

Good luck!



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...
 
That was 'Printemps' and not 'Printable'.

Oh and some IM stores said they would be getting more stock so it's worth checking out.

Saw lots of people wearing the Bobby and Becketts too. Seem very popular.

Hi Bobs,

I am going to Paris in 1½ week and am a bit curious of the availability there, especially as a lot of things are selling out so quickly on the web; seems as if you have to buy immediately if there is something you really want.. I called one of the IM stores in Paris last week and was told that the F/W 2011 collection had almost already sold out.. Did you by any chance see if they had the fringed boots in the stores? And what about the rest of the F/W collection..? Just to get an update from someone who has just been there :-)..

I decided to keep my Dickers in taupe from NAP, as I didn't want to take the risk of them being sold out everywhere in Paris.. Sounds like I did the right thing then.
 
I saw very little IM F/W anywhere. There was lots of Etoile though. I don't know if that means the main collection has sold out or not. They definitely said they are still getting stock.

The two IM stores have the best selection ( the one in the Marais is temporarily closed). On the fringe boots, the IM store in the 6th definitely has them. Otherwise, Printemps had lots of stock on two different floors.

I imagine everything is selling out very quickly. You can spot people wearing her stuff all over Paris. Good luck with your quest!
 
Thanks, I will probably need it :-)..

Still a bit confused as to how many lengths the fringe boots come in.. On the runway show there seems to be 2 lengths (one over-the-knee and one knee-high), but I have also seen a shorter version (approx. 30 cm).. The boots you saw in Paris, which length were they?
 
ladies...FYI...barneys now carries the dicker boots in cognac and black. price is $560. worth checking out. hopefully your size is available as barneys does not update in stock items on their website. good luck!

Thanks Coreena! My worry is that the 37 are a little bit longer in the length (about .5") but they feel perfect in width. They seem to fit just as well as my other boots, but these look a bit long in the toe area. Because of the thinness of the suede/leather, I think they might stretch out quite a bit when I wear them outside so I might want to try a 36 for comparison. However, I don't want to be stuffing my foot into a 36, and then once it stretches...I don't want that bulky uneven stretched look around my toes!
 
I got protective soles on my Dicker Boots to prevent the soles to get damaged, some people wanted to know how it looked, so here are some pics, love them but the horrible weather prevents me to wear them!

looks good! if you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for the protective soles? I've gotten price quotes for anywhere from $20-$45 in my area...just wanted to see what others have paid for theirs.
