Fantastic! Thank you for the feedback. I agree and I think it's an absolutely beautiful shoe that I could still use after the wedding. :heart:
Just an update, the shoes arrived but they’re huge! Thinking of exchanging them for 36.5. Do these shoes stretch in case the 36.5 ends up being tight? Thank you so much in advance! They’re absolutely gorgeous though! I am thinking that if I do exchange them, I might stick with the classic royal blue. I think this type of shoe deserves a fun color.

All of his shoes stretch with time. What is your true size?

Thank you! I don’t know to be honest. It tends to fluctuate. I don’t have a lot of designer shoes but my Jimmy Choo Erin is 37, my Louboutin Iriza is 36. My feet are 23 cm long more or less? So I think that’s around 36-36.5? The Hangisi I got was 37 and there’s at least one pointer finger of space.

I'm sure you'll be happy once you get your proper size. It's a very comfortable shoe. :smile:
 
I am a size us 6 but 35.5 in designer (Chanel, Jimmy Choo, Salvatore Ferragamo, Charlotte Olympia, and Manolo Blahnik heels)

I ordered a size 36 in the Manolo Blahnik hangisi flat and it was too large.

I would keep to your true size.

Hello, my Royal Satin Blue Hangisis have arrived and they are beautiful! Can I ask if anyone has used the scotchguard protector for leather and textiles on them? I plan to spray them before I use them.
Also, does anyone recommend to resole these with rubber? I do that with my Chanel shoes and I was wondering if people do the same with manolos. Thank you in advance!

Stunning & iconic! I own the same color in the 50mm height. Interested to hear others' experience as well as I haven't sprayed anything on my Hangisi's. Enjoy yours!

If you're planning on heavy usage of these shoes or will be wearing them in the rain, then I would put a thin rubber sole on them. I personally didn't put them on any of mine, I like the visual of the delicate line of this shoe as is. I also have never sprayed satin shoes so would do some research to make sure there's a proper product to do that and one that would not alter the color or texture of the fabric.

Thanks so much! Will do!

WOW! What a beautiful color this is! Mine Hangisis are in black laced so I haven't done anything to protect them.

Got a navy pair for my wedding, which was supposed to be in September (postponed now to April 2021 because of covid :( ). Super excited to wear them! The wedding is indoors, inside an art gallery... would you recommend getting rubber soles added to them before the wedding? Or should I just wear them a bit as is, and later take them to a cobbler? I'm so on the fence because the soles are so smooth I'm worried about them being slippery, but I also love how simple and clean the silhouette is right now without the added rubber sole.

The soles are suede and are not slippery. This is one of his shoes I've never put a rubber sole on and been fine.

Gorgeous shoe! I am using my satin ones for my wedding too! I’ll probably change to another shoe for when we take photos in the garden I thought about adding rubber soles but it seems like it’s not the thing to do with Hangisis. They’re too pretty to ruin the line. I’m also scared that the cobbler might make a mistake and snag the satin.
