I don't think you are imagining things! I tried on a couple pairs of size 35s (my normal european size) last week and they were all very big. Even the camparis, which I thought should be okay since they have straps, but they were not "tad" but really big. I was really sad because I'd been eyeing that pair for a while and my store finally had them in my size. :(
 
Hi ladies, I'm going to ask you a question about Manolo's shoes.

I saw a great pair of Sedaraby's on eBay, I would get them but I don't know how they fit, since this would be my first pair.
I usually wear a 38, but the seller has a 38 1/2.. Could they fit? :confused1:

Do Manolo's shoes fit normally/bigger/smaller than other??

TIA! :ty:

For me personally, the sizing of Manolo is all over the place. Depending on the style, I may have to go up .5 size, but in certain styles, I'm true to size.

Do you have a picture of the sandals?
 
I agree with the pp. I find Manolos fit differently depending on the model. For example, I have a pair of strappy sandals that are a 37.5 (my normal size in non designer shoes) and are a bit snug. When I bought my next two pairs, which was online, I bought 38s and they fit OK although a 37.5 would have bit a tiny bit better. I a few days ago I tried the Caldo in 38 and they were gigantic so I tried the 37.5 instead, which fit like a glove.

If you can, go to a store and try some Manolos on so you get an idea of what models fit better in what size. I wouldn't buy my first pair on ebay because you can't return them if they don't fit. If there are no stores near you that carry them, how about ordering a similar style from NM or BG in your normal size, see how they fit and then return them?

Good luck!

Thank you, JuneHawk!
Unfortunately, there are no stores here who sell Manolo's shoes.. I cheched on BG and NM sites, but they don't ship to Italy on online orders..
 
The auction on eBay is over, the seller removed the item because of a mistake on the offer's amount.. :crybaby::hysteric:

Anyway, thanks ladies for your help.. You've been very helpful! I didn't know Manolo's shoes fit so differently.. now I know I don't have to size up on Sedaraby's style..if only I could find another pair at a decent price!!

What is the sizing like?

As a Louboutin fan I know sometimes sizing between styles can be erratic - how are Manolos though?

I have campari mary janes in a 36.5 - do you think other shoes would be the same?
