Well I got my replacement pair of Bobbys in Jaune from Barneys yesterday. The first pair they sent was a left size 39 and a right size 38. The new pair looked shopworn. There was a spot on the left toe that looked like a rub mark, and the suede was thinner there like at any minute you were going to get a hole in the toe. The box was dirty and ripped, and the shoes were not carefully packed either. I needless to say called immediately and told them to pick them up and issue a refund to my card. I don't think I will be ordering from Barneys again unless they are my last resort. I then went to La Garconne and was glad that they still had them available. I ordered from them so hopefully I will have them next week. On the upside I saved almost 50.00 in tax by getting them from La Garconne. I didn't know about that site prior to my first order with Barneys.
This is my only pair but I wear a 39 and my Brian's are a 40 and are about .5 too big but comfortably so. HTH.
Hi Lisa, I only have one pair of IM boots - Dicker, and they are the same size of my Brian and Betty. I am ER 37/37.5, and Brian 38 fits me perfectly.
Wow, you've had some bad luck with Barneys! I've read a few others having issues with IM sneakers with Barneys too. It is strange since they usually are very careful with their shoes.
La Garconne is nice since you save $50! They wrap their shoes really carefully too. So hopefully these will come to you ok. I can't wait to see them on you! This color is perfect for ya!
QUESTION!....What is the largest size the IM sneakers run in? I have been eyeing these for a WHILE now (the brians I believe) but I am absolutely unsure if they even run in my size....im a US 11 IT 41/42.....im praying to the shoe gods starting NOW *Crosses fingers*
I *believe* a 41, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
I had a very similar experience except it was with Net A Porter. I ordered my first pair of Bekket's a few weeks ago and they were supposed to be the off-white color. When I received them I could tell right off they were a return as the box was beat up and stained and the shoes were just tossed in the box on top of the shoe stuffing, dustbags and regular tissue. I doubt seriously they even looked in the box before shipping but I digress... I thought, huh that's a funny off white color and sure enough I turn the box and they are Beige (which was my preferred color anyway) but at that point I was just happy they were the same size and an actual pair. I'm wanting more already but I won't be buying from NaP again, who knows what will come
It's a bummer too because that was my first ever order from them and after all the rave reviews I'd heard I expected better.
I know yeah for the savings but I should be wearing them already. My original order was almost a month ago. Though as you know it isn't like I have nothing else to wearSorry to hear but yay for saving $50!!!!can't wait to see you in them!!!!
.I know. I have always had good luck with Barneys, but I don't think I have ever ordered shoes from them before. I am sure that the shoes from La Garconne will be fine. This will be my 3rd pair from them, actually my 4th but 1 pair went back due to being too large. I need to take some pics but will wait until the family is complete. I have the Lilas, Craie, the Baya in black. Jaune is coming Wednesday as well as and the Basley from NAP this evening.
Wow, that is really disturbing to hear. I love NAP they are my first choice to order from. I have never had a problem with any item I have ever ordered from them and I have ordered a lot, lol. I have the Basley coming from them this evening. I will let you know how they work out.I *believe* a 41, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hopefully I had just had a one-off bad experience with that order. I've got my fingers crossed your Basley's will be perfect
I've really only heard wonderful things about Net a Porter so I was quite surprised with what arrived. I'm always in love with something they have so likely I'll give them another chance, especially if you'd reccomend them for IM's as I'm after another pair already:shame: Hubby and I are taking our little guy to breakfast tomorrow and I can hardly wait to wear them again. My son calls them my "rock star" shoes lolI have the Lilas too! I loooove them. The color is so pretty and it is amazingly neutral. It goes with a lot of stuff in my wardrobe. I would love to see your family pics with all your new IMs together!
