Hi all ladies, I am torn to decide which colour should I get for my first Isabel Marant :( and would really appreciate any advices! I am petite, normally wear dark clothes, but the same with everyone else, almost all of my shoes are black already. I am going to use this daily. And are the light colour versions of these shoes would easily get dirty? Thank you very much :)

I'd definitely go for the black with the zebra print. They're amazing and will look good with black clothing. I'm not so keen on the others and I think they would get dirty in a lighter colour. Plus suede is always fairly difficult to maintain and care for.

I'd buy the khaki ones! The colour looks good with dark clothes, and they don't get dirty easily. I don't really like the other ones, but the khakis are easy and pretty. I also wear a lot of black, and I have beige, black and gris Beketts and khaki Bobbys. They're all pretty easy to wear!

I have both the kaki and the Hawaii print but reversed, it's navy with white and looks like the black with zebra. I use the navy the most because its almost black so it goes with everything. The khakis don't get dirty easily and you can waterproof them:)

Anyone got the Bobbys, I need help!

The first time i wore my Bobby today, i love them, they're so adorable & quite comfortable but the back ankle area digs & rubs. I felt blisters developing if i wear them any longer, anyone got the same problem?
Any suggestions on products that would stop the rubbing besides bandaides or socks? I want to wear them more this fall, to get my moneys worth, but i don't want any blisters :(

My black Bobbys do this to me, my only suggestion is wear them around the house with thick socks, as the suede stretches and softens up it rubs less and less. Or if you're a little more adventurous, use a nail file and VERY gently soften the inside area where it rubs on the sneaker. I rely on this technique now to make new shoes with 'rigid' edges much more wearable from the get-go.

About to do it on my new Giorgio Armani flats which gave me a vicious blister on their first wear :sad:

Thanks jen for the suggestions, i've been wearing my bobbys on my trips with thin, ankle socks, sometimes some cute printed ones & they worked perfect. They've already stretched a little bit, though i still want the option to wear them w/out socks. Hope they don't rub on the back ankle anymore, otherwise, i will for sure try your technique. Bottomline, i really enjoyed them, all day long walking is no problem :)

Hi ladies!
I was wondering if I could get your input on these? I found them on eBay and didn't have any luck in the authenticate shoes thread. They look authentic to me but I would love a second opinion.
TIA!!!

Got the bluebells in black but not sure about keeping them. I've been after a pair of IM wedge sneakers for years but my legs are on the chunky side so I just don't know if they are for me.

Thank you! I feel much better with extra opinions!
Do you spray your sneakers? I'm wondering if I should apple guard them in case I get caught in the rain. I've used apple guard on suede before and they saved my Gucci boots from disaster when I accidentally stepped into a puddle.

They look great! You do not have chunky legs at all! Defs keep :)


Meanwhile my search on eBay for them have been a bust. I have been finding 39s however when I tell them that I'm around 8.5 to 9 they tell me that it'll probably be too small for me? So confused. I'm scared to order online now and I can't try them on anywhere :( Can anyone else chime in? I may order from forwardforward when I know definitely what size I should be getting.

I'm a 7.5 - 8 and I wear 38s.
The 38s are a neat fit but not tight - my toes have wriggle room. If I wanted to wear thick socks I would size up to 39 but I tried 39s and they looked and felt too big on me.
