Hi everyone,
I am a newbie to the IM sneakers here. I have decided that I need to own one of these beautiful sneakers but I can't decide between the Wila and the Bobby???? I am leaning towards Bobby. I am only 5'2" and I feel like Wila is going to swallow my short legs but I love love love the color (the black piping is what I am eyeing for) and when I see other people wear them, they just look so cool and effortless but I am not sure if I could pull it off. The Bobby is more dainty and I love the rich color. It's really hard for me to decide. Please help!

I know what you mean, I just got my 1st & only IM sneakers & i picked the Bobby Camel because it's not too overwhelming looking on me (petite person). I knew already, i'd disappear on Becketts while the Bobby, it's just too cute on & unbelievably comfortable. I hope i'm not too late for this style, i'm not really a sneaker kind of person, but the more i see the Bobby on anyone, i fell in love with it more & more. When i saw the new Camel, i knew it's the one.

Try them on & see how you feel & look. You'll know.

I'm 5"3 but have a long torso and ridiculously short legs (boo!) and I have the Bekkets. They look fine I think. I'm pretty self conscious about my stumpy legs and things that make them look even shorter but I feel good in them. I think they are quite flattering on most. I have some pictures that I will upload for you.

yaaay! what colour did you get? I also don't have long legs, they're not skinny (but quite athletic with some fat haha) and I think all of her sneakers look great. I love them both, but atm my beketts more because my bobbys have stretched out and since I've got pretty narrow feet my feet slide forwards and my toes hit the front. I'm thinking about putting one of those gel cushions for high heels in them, they're anti-slip so might prevent my feet from sliding forward. Any of you guys have had this?

I finally pulled the trigger and bought the Bobby in Craie. I seriously can't believe how comfortable these are. I walked all around the city with these babies on and my feet were not hurting at all :D

Congrats on your purchase, love the craie. I wear mine a lot as they are so easy to match. Sorry for the low quality pic - with my phone. Out shopping for my son :smile1:

Your legs doesn't look short at all, the Bekkets looks great on you.

I was debating between the camel & taupe. I got the taupe one! I am usually a 38 (7 US) but on Barney's web it said 37 for 7 US. I own a pair of Dickers from last season, 38 so we will see how the Bobby fits me.
