I prefer wearing my low tops (betty) during hot weather. I think the high top (bekett) is too thick for summer. Both of the bekett and bobby style are comfy. Bekett runs half size smaller. Bobby runs true to size.
ITA with this. I think Bobbys are TTS. The Beketts run a half size small.

I took my Bobbys and dickers in FR37. The Beketts in Fr38. Fr37 in the Beketts were much too tight and short. I have wide feet though. I'm a US 6.5-7. I am more a US7 though - wide feet ;-).

Congrats! Are they too small or just smaller than expected? Do you think they will stretch?

smaller than expected...i don't want to torture my big toes...so they are going back. i am going to barneys later today to return them to save the $8 deduction fee. just ordered the 38....we'll see if they are still in stock.
i don't really believe in stretching...b/c i have narrow feet...and the cobblers told me it's always easy and stretch the width but not the length. sigh...

I'm sorry the 37's didn't work out Juneping. I hope the 38's work for you! You and I are the same shoe size except you are narrow and I have flipper feet ;-). I'll keep my fingers crossed they find you a 38 and it fits you like a dream!

Maybe this season's Bobbys are smaller then last seasons? I was ok in my Bobby's, sz 37. But mine are from last year. I also found my Willows from last season were more roomy then this seasons Beketts. I wish IM sizing were a bit more consistent.

Hmmm... I was going to order a 38 also and wear a 7.5-8 US... Do you think I should do a 39 instead?
 
I put up some mod pics of tonight's outfit, it's been so unbearably hot in NYC that I haven't been able to really wear my bekketts without my feet burning up!

I just checked my La Garconne account and it's showing my white Betty's have shipped ( :D ) BUT because the supposed ship date Was mid September i had them sent to my new house which is in escrow until Aug 31... AAAHH this is a disaster!
Please did any of you girls get notification your Betty's shipped? So bittersweet bc I have waited so long but it will be Sooo completely inappropriate to receive a parcel prior to close :/ eeek!! TIA:smile1:

Something similar to this happened to me-- I called LaGarconne and they were able to re-route the package to my other address-- Hopefully if they actually shipped, it won't be a hassle to re-schedule the shipment. HTH
 
You are an absolute angel!!! This is really great news... I was hoping this was possible:) Thank you Sooo much for sharing this...

Okay then,heads up gorgeous gals who ordered white Betty's preOrder from LG they may be on their way to you!!!!!

i think you'll be fine with 38....i think each person's feet are so different..the width and length....
all the shoes i have, i know my big toes feel the front of the shoes, even the pointy heels. width was never an issue to me except my feet were swimming in them. so to me, bobby runs small length wise..

thanks TB!! i think i have longer feet than yours...:D
after i ordered the bobby...i've been planning outfits around them...:laugh:
 
I love these suede and goat hair boots!!! Anyone own them, or a style similar to them?
Are they comfortable? How do they fit? And last, what would you treat them with to protect them??

I am a eur 37 tts and I have narrow feet. I have purchsed a 37 back in stock at mytheresa.com 3 weeks ago but I returned it 'cause they are too tight on the toes.
...Isabel, ...If you can hear me... Please 1/2 sizes... And more sneakers for all! :laugh:
