I'm so excited! I just got my first pair of CLs today after looking at lots of different styles and trying to decide what I wanted as my first pair. I decided on the Declic. After calling my local Saks to see if they had any I could try on for size, the SA very rudely/sarcastically told me that if the shoe "looks almost like the Rolando then it IS the Rolando." I hung up on her. She obviously doesn't know her stuff. I ended up ordering from NM.com.
I love the way they look, but I think they might be too small. I normally wear a 7.5 to an 8 in shoes (and my foot is wide) and got a 38.5 after researching sizing. The toe box feels really cramped, and I wonder if exchanging them for a 39 will help or if it will just be way too loose in the heel. I suppose I could always put a foot petal in them if they are too big.
I can't help feeling like they look funny from the top though. I'm not used to all that toe cleavage! I added a picture of this. Don't laugh at me!
