I was wondering the same thing. I hope you get a reply. I also ordered these...(from Barney's in US 10/UK 40) I'm usually around a 9.5-10 and really hoping these fit.

I ordered both sizes the 9 and the 10 and the 10 is a little big but I'm worried they will get bigger once they begin to stretch. The 9 is a little tight but not unbearable so I'm going to wear a few pairs of thick socks to see if they loosen up before I one pair goes back. If you're a 9.5 the US 10 should fit fine!!

Nope, my toe is right at the top. From what I've read here it's possible they may stretch a little with wear and be fine. But I don't want to risk wearing them and they don't stretch enough and I'm stuck with them. They are really nice though so it is disappointing.

Hi Ladies

Can anyone advise if the Betty's come in taupe or khaki? And if so where they are available (I'm in the UK)? I have ordered the Bobby's and really like them but am a little concerned about them being completely suede and getting wet with the poor UK weather!

Thank you

Rachael

I believe Betty's only come in Black and Off-White. So does the all leather version of Brian.

I completely understand. I'm still trying to decide which size to keep.

Those burgundy ones are really nice, but being sensible (for once!) I feel I'll get more wear from taupe/khaki.

Those of you who own Bobby's, do you spray them with sort of protector before wearing them? Has anyone been caught in the rain whilst wearing them and if so how do they survive?

Thank you, and sorry about all the questions!

So Matches sizing is in EU on the site. So I ordered an EU 36 knowing that IM is in FR sizing. Just opened my new Bekkets and turned them over to see 36 on the bottom. Ugh. So now I have to send them back and rebuy in the next size up. I should have checked with Matches about the sizing but assumed they used EU as EU and not taking the FR as EU.

Ugh how annoying! I remember when I ordered my Beketts at NAP I had the same dilemma, it's not really clear. I just assumed they would keep it easy and put the size on the box as ordering size, but the size chart suggests otherwise. You could e-mail them and they would probably pay for the shipping?

I always assumed they were French sizes... Now I'm curious!

Well I ordered what Matches said was an EU 36 which is what I assumed I was as I thought 37 on the bottom of my beige Bekkets was FR 37. But a black pair of 36 arrived and were too small. They have 36 on the bottom of the shoe. So either Matches are confused or I am.

It's confusing! I ignored the chart back then because the sizes went 36-41 and I knew that couldn't be EU sizes since that would mean IM made her shoes in FR sizes 37-42 and that's not true. But... that doesn't correlate to the info in their sizing chart. Did you contact Matches?

Yes they said that the sizing on the bottom of the shoe is EU sizing. I said I believe that to be the FR sizing and that they should really make sure the sizing correlates because I did my research before hand and I already own the perfect fit Bekkets.

I have now returned them and I'm waiting for my credit to buy the next size up.
