how much smaller do you think the old size 38 are compared to the new ones, (.5 cm???, 1 cm)
cheers

Woot woot!! Anthracite dickers !

Just picked up my dicker boots I bought from the bay.

They were pre-owned, but had very light wear on the soles (paid 4 bills for them, which were a plus!!)

I am sure these are from last season as these 38's fit more snug than my new pair of dickers in 38. The dust bag as well are made of a lighter, thinner material.

I actually prefer the snugger fit 'cause I find the 2011 dickers a little loose. I should have gone down to a 37 this season, but I can't exchange them anymore.

Anyways, I have included a pic! (They are a dark charcoal grey...the flash makes them look a lot lighter in colour)

Hey gbg,

I'd say atleast .5cm, could be 1cm? I just know the current seasons 38's are longer in length.

I normally wear a US 7.5, and the prev. seasons 38 fit much better. My foot doesn't slide as much. I will probably have to put insoles in my black dickers I bought this season.

ladies - quick question for those that purchased IM dickers THIS season: are they running true to size? reason i ask is last season, i bought IM dickers in taupe and they were true to size. this was after that whole debacle of the dickers running small to size in previous seasons. anyway, THIS season (fall 2011), i have heard that they are running LARGE to size.

so basically, here is my dilemma. last season, i bought the dickers in taupe size 39. i am a true US 8.5/9. the 39's fit like a glove...PERFECT. now, THIS season, i bought them online in black size 39 again assuming that they would fit the same as last season. should i have gotten a 38 instead? unfortunately i haven't received them yet so this is where i need feedback from you ladies!! :-)

i am so confused with her sizing. one season, they ran small to size. the next season, TTS. then this season, large to size! what is THE DEAL?????

Hey Jettsett,

In my case, I'm a US7.5. I bought a pair of dickers from this fall 2011 in size 38/ black. I found them a little big length wise.

I recently purchased a pair of dickers from last season in a 38 and they fit absolutely perfect.

Some people i've heard bought their usual size and they said they fit the same (lucky them...)

A 38 may be better but it's a hit or miss. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that the 39's turn out ok!

Can you all stand yet another sizing question?

I normally wear an 8.5 US, but I prefer to wear 39 EUR (vs a 38.5) because I have one foot that is pushing a 9. I have a pair of '11 Dixies in 39 that fit pretty much perfectly with tights or very thin socks (the big foot is the littlest bit tight, but the leather is stretching out fine and I can wear them all day no problems).

If I want to put myself on a wait list for Dickers, should I choose a 39 or size up a bit to a 40? My concern is the extra inch in heel height will make my toes slide down a bit. What do you experts think?

I would stick with the 39.
