Newbie to CL I'm a true 10...will anything work?

[KAOKim]

I'm new to CL but love some of his shoes. I've read that in most of his shoes you have to go up at least a half size to a full size. I'm a true 10 will any of his shoes fit for me? And if so what size would I be? Thanks girls, you are the best!

hi i'm a US size 11 med/wide..some of them fit me,some of them don't.i think you just have to try them when you go to the store..you might be size 41-41.5 in CL's..good luck

^^ Thank you! My feet are on the wide side too. I suppose I shouldn't buy my first pair on Ebay then. Thanks again!

I wouldn't buy my first pair on ebay either. It takes a lot of careful planning to decide on the style you like and learning the nuances of how each style will fit.

I am a 9.5-10 US and consistently have to get a 40.5 in CLs so since you are a true 10 US, I think you'll wear a 41 in most styles.

You should go to a store first and try out different styles. That's what I did. I'm a regular 9-9.5 US, and in CLs I wear either a 40 or 40.5.

am also a 10 and the few pairs that I have I have gotten in 41, but I usually order two sizes to see which will fit better, but I would not take any chances on ebay if you are not familiar with the style already.

Every CL is different. You should really buy your first pair in the store...try a bunch on so you can see how each style fits you. Then if you want look for them on ebay or online.
Here is a good thread for you once you know your size.

Definitely try the shoes first and I would strongly suggest you don't buy them off of ebay unless or until you get used to the differences in the shoes.

My feet have been in flux since I had a baby amost a year ago. I was a 9 in most shoes and a 9.5 in most european designer shoes. Now, I wear a 9 to 9.5 in non-designer shoes and a generally a 10 in designers, including CL's. I did have to take a 10.5 in the patent 70mm pigalles. I got a 10.5 in the metalika booties, but they are a bit tight so I probably could have taken an 11. Based on trying on the shoes you can get a feeling for your size in the different types and heel heights of CL's.

Thanks everyone I appreciate it. The ones I'm eyeing are these http://cgi.ebay.com/AUTH-CHRISTIAN-...ryZ63889QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem.
Obviously these aren't my size but they are super cute. Does anyone know the style name and how they run?

Thanks again for helping me out! I appreciate all of the information.
