Shoes New season pointed ankle boots - anyone tried?

[LittleMyMoomin]

Hello,
My first post on the Valentino forum
I've been looking for the perfect ankle boots to wear with opaque tights and dresses, and with skinny trousers and found these last night... has anyone tried them on / seen IRL? According to Net a Porter, they run very small, but (as I can't get to a store to try them on) I was wondering if anyone could help please?
Thank you!

Oh well, only one way to find out... I ordered them anyway

They're really pretty. Sorry, I am unfamiliar with sizing on this style. Good luck!

They arrived, and are GORGEOUS

I'm normally a pretty standard UK size 5 and, based on advice on various websites, I ordered two sizes: a half size up (38.5) and a full size up (39) - the 38.5 are snug across the instep but perfect length and width across the toes. The width around the ankle is perfect, entirely suitable for how I wanted to wear them

Very slippery soles though, I'm going to have to do something about that before I venture out in them.

Will try to post some photos on the weekend.

I really like the look of these.......any mod shots?! The heel makes them seem like they would be easy to walk in and wear for an extended time.

I have them in the same size as my other rockstud pumps.
I like them very much, and the first time i break them in i walk in them for a couple of hours.
They are pretty comfy.

So sorry for the delay in replying! They are quite comfortable, and look amazing
I wore them a couple of days ago with black opaques and a shift dress - asked my husband to take photos quickly but didn't realise he'd just zoomed in on the boots until I looked this morning sorry! Anyway, here are a few, will try to get some better ones soon...

I had to fix my shoes at the cobbler because they was so slippery and the sole was worn out very fast and the tip especially, so the cobbler make a great solution. I will post a picture of them later. My dog is sleeping on me so i can not move right now.
