I went to exchange my Brians yesterday because they had a production error and the shop still had one last pair of gris Bekkets, my size! So HAD to buy them right? :graucho: I noticed the Brians are more roomy in the front, I think because there's no second layer of leather underneath (there is at the front and the top, but most perforated parts are one layer). So these would probably be better for summer!

Id go to the store and try both on...having both on your feet will help your descion, one or the other may suit you more, be more comfortable etc...I returned some cute Basleys coz I found the Bobbys to be more comfortable and they suited me better...:smile1:

I agree! for me anthracite would be a colour I could wear with a lot of my clothes, and the style of the Dickers and Bobbys is very different. If you love them both I would buy them, but you could also try them on so you know if the fit is alright for you and order one of them online in another colour?

Thanks for that ennna & summer sunshine! They aren't arriving in store until April/May anyway. I could get the craie colour off NAP but last time I ordered the FR sizing confused me so much and I have to pay the taxes to get them to NZ. If the bobbys are the right size I may just have to get them both in anthracite...

Hi fellow IM lovers

I own the black Bekkets and love and wear them heaps! I'm now looking to get another pair in an off white suede colour and am tossing up between the Bekkets and the Bobbys.

Can anyone who has both these styles give me some insight/opinions on both styles. I only want to buy one pair but am having trouble deciding.

Many thanks in advance

I own both, my first IM sneakers were Bobbys and since then I only bought Beketts. Don't know why! I love them both and it's nice to have 2 different models. I don't prefer one fit over another, but I like the difference (I also tried to buy my pairs in colours not too close to each other). Some of my dresses go better with my Bobbys, they're a bit less "sporty". I would go for Bobbys because you don't have them yet (but I own the off white Beketts and the're so pretty!)

I love that Bekket colour. Wishing I could have found them instead of my beige now.. But I guess a girl can never have too many pairs..!?

Exactly! My bf thinks I'm crazy because I keep buying them, but I wear them a lot so don't agree, haha! Wouldn't want to exchange my beige ones for these though, the beige are more quiet and both pairs go with outfits the other sometimes isn't right with.

The shop (Mayke) also had one pair of beige Bazils size 39 left by the way.
