Yes you are right, i can’t, but i will not post my selling here. I have been frustrated many times in my past for missing the opportunity of buying them ; our size is so difficult to find, that this message is a kind notification to look for this model / size on popular selling platforms in the next couple of days ...
 
I have a size 41 in so kate dragonfly glitter heels but they’ve stretched to the point that I probably should have suffered through breaking in a 40.5. Anyway I’m curious if anyone has experience with Louboutin slingbacks. Specifically the ostri sling. I found a pair I like but it’s a 40.5 and I’m worried it may be too small if the toe box is narrower than the so kate.

I wear a SZ 41.5 So Kate black-patent, can do a SZ41 So Kate black-suede..the difference is due to the flexibility of the suede vs patent (pretty stiff!)

I have the Ostri in a 42, it's a good fit for me. The toe-box is short-toe like the Pigalle 120 (pre-2013). I.e., the toe-box is NOT narrower than So-Kate (it;s wider), however the toe-box is *shorter*. There still may be a sizing issue, i.e. too small to accommodate your foot.

Based on your description, you & I differ by .5 size. So, you would need a Ostri SZ 41.5 (if I'm a SZ 42). Likely the SZ 40.5 you found is way too small!

Feet come in all shapes/sizes, so only way to know is to try them on. It sounds like it's used shoe..not able to return, or maybe?

Thanks for that. The pair I’m looking at are for sale on nonreturnable. I also found a size 41 but that pair is used and I don’t like the idea of buying a used pair. I have something that I think has the wide toe box in the tchicaboums. I have a 40 in that and they’re perfect other than being a teensy but short but I don’t think anyone but I would notice. That’s why I thought a 40.5 would be fine since it seems the ostri and tchicaboums have he same basic shape other than the sling car sandal straps.
 
That last post didn’t make much sense I just realized. I meant to say I have a pair of size 40 tchicaboums and they fit other than being slightly too short and the ostri slings look like the same basic heel shape (they even have the same red heel) that I figured upsizing a bit would be fine. I think I’m actually more of a 40.5 in so Kate’s mine are kind of long and while they were uncomfortable at first they’ve really stretched to fit my foot now.
 
A few days ago you would have had the chance to find a pair of Pigalle Follies 100 (multi-colored Splash Paillette) in size IT43 in the European CL shop - they are no longer available now.
 
I see that Monsieur Louboutin is now doing 42.5 and 43 in some styles!!! Please tell me someone here has gotten them and if so, mod pics, how do they fit, etc!!!! I will SPLURGE if its a Cinderella fit! Just managed to find one of my UHGs!! Black Patent Pigalle 120 pre 2013!!

Congratulations on your UHG find!! I've almost given up on finding any CLs in my size that really fit. I'm interested in hearing from those who have purchased the 42.5 and 43 and how they actually fit.

Congrats again on scoring your Pigalles!
 
Thank you so much!! Just gotta find Nude now. I want The So Kate in 42.5 or 43 in Neon, but I don't have any experience in that shoe fit. 42s are still a challenge and I gotta deal with through break-in process which buying g two shoe stretchers helps a LOT in that process. Don't give up on the hunt. Good luck and I'll keep my eyes peeled for you
