yes, when i bought my first pair in december 2012 they sold out in a day, my second pair got it on netaporter in summer 2013 and they were sold out in a couple days too! Now i see them often in the stores just laying on the shelfs.. They are nice but when i wear them now i don't get the same love and excitement as i did when i wore them back then... Already sold one.. And thinking about the other one...:cool:

I don't wear my beckets anymore, for me they are out of fashion and now lots of people wear them here in Amsterdam where I live.I started wearing them 2 years ago alot, almost nobody had them. But I still wear my bobby's though, they are cute.

Agree :tup: I see plenty of Beckett and Bucks on Theoutnet and the like for a steal and it kind of indicates that they are fashion passé.

HOWEVER if you love them wear them! I still wear things that is considered somewhat dated but it doesn't really matter to me as long as they bring me joy :yes:

Ok intense heat is almost over. The weather is getting more forgiving (at least in Florence). I thought it's time to bring out the sneaks again. Are you ladies still wearing your beketts/bucks/bobbies? Or is it out of fashion already?

Thanks for replying majchi! Started wearing my old bobbies & betties this week as well. Been eyeing the burt's in O.com and still confused and undecided at the moment if I should add it to my collection or not. Would you do it if you already have some?

Hi Ladies! Need your help!!
I'm eyeing on 2 pairs of IM, a bluebel and a blossom. Are the sizing for the bluebel and blossom the same?
I have a red Bobby in 38 and it fits be great with wiggle room in the toe box. Should I get a size 38 or 39?

this may be a silly question, but for those who own the bobby wedge sneakers, do you wear socks with them?


I haven't worn my shoes nearly as much as I thought I would because when I pair them with my skinny jeans, my socks are visible. There's a small gap because the top is lose around my ankles no matter how tight I try to tie them. It's not a huge issue if I wear cute colorful socks, but standard white socks do not fly when I'm wearing black jeans or dark blue lol. They're so noticeable!

I always wear trainer/sneaker socks with my Bobbys. They're very low so not visible when being worn, but better than bare feet.

Hi All,

I am new to the ISABEL MARANT, and i recently purchase my first BOBBY Wedge sneaker on EBAY, and I was so happy! Unfortunately when i got the shoes i noticed that the SOLE of the shoe has a STAR on it and the size (number 38) was on a different as the other authenticated isabel marant shoes. Which made me doubt the authenticity of the shoe. But the seller has over 600 good reviews and everyone was saying all her things were authentic.

I emailed her and she said she is willing to return the money back and was insistent that all her items are authentic - which i want to believe.

I could not shake it off, so i emailed the boutique she said she purchased it from. (Fidelios, in ZURICH) sent them the photo of the sole. The responded that the STAR on the sole means that that shoe line belongs to the "ETOILE" line (which is a cheaper line) and if the sole does NOT have a star on it comes from the main line which is more expensive.

So im wondering Isabel marant makes the same design shoe and has one in her MAIN ISABEL MARANT and her ETOILE LINE? or all of the BOBBY shoe is in the ETOILE line and the shoes are indeed authentic.

Hope you guys can help me on this!! :( because I cant seem to sleep without settling this

I believe the Bobbys were originally produced for her mainline but in the last year they are now an Etoile piece. They are still authentic so I wouldn't worry!

I bought a pair of the Becketts at 20% off during a Black Friday event and now I'm unsure whether to keep them or not. As others have stated, they seem to be a bit outdated now and at 20% off they were still pretty pricey. I bought them because I'm in last trimester of pregnancy and need something comfortable to wear that I can just throw on in the colder weather and also wear when the baby arrives and I'm going to be out for lots of walks. I already have a pair of high top LV sneakers which were meant to serve that our purpose but they're a bit too dressy for what I need. Prior to my pregnancy, I lived in heels! I almost bought the Valentino Rockstud biker boots but they didn't feel very comfortable for my narrow feet. There are loads of great sneakers out there (although not so many hi-tops) so I'm not sure whether to keep or return the Becketts. Have tried the Chanel ones but they were uncomfortable so I had to sell them after a couple of wears.
