In terms of being practical I prefer the Betty .... also worn them MUCH more than any of my Perkins/Willow/Bekket

Here a pic of my IM sneakers:smile1:

Beautiful collection! Can we see some mod pics of the khaki?

Thanks Lulu! Yea, same with me. The dickers in size 37 are super comfortable, but when I walk around in the size 37 in the Bekkets, they hurt my feet and it feels like my toes are being smashed, and pushed towards the front of the sneaker. I am afraid if I go up to a size 38, it will be too big. Did you consider a size 38?

I'm a 6.5/7 and a 37 in dickers. The 38 bekett fits nicely with some ankle socks.

WOW we are the exact same size. I am a 6.5/7 USA sizing, and a size 7 in Dickers. I am also a size 6 in Acne Pistol boots and and a 6 Fiorentini & Baker boots. (cause they run large) When I walked around in a size 37 in the Bekkets, they felt TIGHT. My toes were right at the top of the sneaker....I didn't feel like I could breathe or have wiggle room. I am afraid the 38s will be too big, but I will try them!
 
I am wearing my Black Bazils today and these are my regular marant size 38.

At 1st they felt tight cus they were brand new but after 5 hours of wearing this afternoon I can feel they had stretched out "little". When I wore them at home my feet kinda got pushed forward and I felt tight at toe box, but after I walked in them for a while, that "tight feeling" went away. My suggestion for those that are still wonder....try push down from the tip of the shoes and feel if there are any room.. unless you have wider feet or longer / bigger toes, stay with your IM size.

Thanks for letting me share :cutesy:.

I haven't seen the boston sneakers in person, but I do have the taupe bobbys and black bettys. I would say the taupe bobbys are a lot more versatile - they can be worn in every season and go with lots of outfits, from winter to summer. The black bettys, at least for me, are more specific to winter/fall - worn with tights or black skinny jeans. I would imagine the boston sneakers wouldn't be as well suited for the warmer months as well.
I'm not really a fan of the snakeskin detail either ...

thanks for this! i think the bettys have won me over and ill wait for those, the taupe look beautiful in the photos ive seen and ia seem more versatile for all seasons.

TOTALLY agree - I wear my Bettys (white and black) WAY more than my Bekkets and Bazils (although these are brand new). Bettys are soooo easy to wear with anything and more comfortable IMO

I think that the 38's should be fine for you. I had a size 39 in the Willows and my toes were pushed against the very top of the shoe (and I always have size 39). In think the problem is that the top is the shoe is very low/steep, look at the side of the shoe. I just purchased the Bekkets in Gris/Gray too in 40, and I also thought that they were more taupe than grey. The 40's are fine, room enough to wiggle.

I personally think the Gris is the best colour to combine with any type of clothing. Its actually the only model with more colours (maybe the green/brown ones too), its a bit more sporty than the Bazils. I like the Bazils too, but I wear black trousers sometimes or leather leggings and I dont want it to be all black. I think the Gris can also be worn under a skirt with bare legs. The black ones I personally do not favour with bare legs (especially if their not too tanned...).
