Ode to Hermes shoes

[papertiger]

We have 2 ode to H footwear threads, one is for SHOES only and the other for BOOTS only .

If your post is about BOOTS and NOT shoes, please post on the ode to boots thread here: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...o-h-boots-thread.535045/page-47#post-32637422

If your post is about SHOES only, then post on this thread.

If if you have a reveal, comment, question about both please post about the SHOES on here and then go to https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...o-h-boots-thread.535045/page-47#post-32637422 and post about boots on there.

TY

Thx for sharing the pics.
Are these the ones in “naturel” with pbhw? I just reached out to my SA earlier today asking for them
I agree about trying a half size up, that second pic shows a bit more heel overhang than the other pics.
PS: They look really cute!

These are the Natural with Permabrass. And yeah, the 37.5 are on the way! I see myself going down a very slippery slope with these...as of yet the only flat Hermes shoes I have are the Santorini.

Perfect. I was hoping to a pic of this color and style. This is very helpful
Let us know how the 37.5's work out.
When I see the pics on the H website, there's a video available with some colors. When I see the model's feet, her heel hangs over as well. So it's enlightening to hear real-world feedback.

Bought a pair of Carlottas today and I have to say, I really love them. Mine are just noir, but I tried shearling variations and am very tempted to have both. My SA is trying to tempt with another pair in red (personally I LOVE the red and pink shearling but, it's almost spring where I am.....).
If anyone has some more mod shots with outfits on any clogs.....that would be wonderful and appreciated

Hi!!!!!
I just bought the Carlotta clogs with the shearling in black. They are surprisingly comfortable and the shearling makes them even more so!!! I don’t have a good mod pic but just want to say that you should think about the shearling - I can see them being perfect for the Fall. I was actually looking at a non-shearling pair but they didn’t have my size so I’ll have to go back for them. When my SA brought out the shearling and I tried them on, I was hooked!!!!

You got me! I will buy shearling for Fall ❤️I haven’t even worn the regular ones yet as I’m out of town!

I think, with this post, I have truly become an H client.
My husband wore his bouncing sneakers for the first time with jeans a couple weeks ago and today we noticed that the part where the jeans rubbed against the white suede goatskin, there has been color transfer.
Its very light, he’s inclined to let it go but I thought, I’d reach out here and see if there are any suggestions to clean it?
There’s plenty of posts cleaning color transfer on leather bags, none specific to suede though.
TIA

I'd love to see pics - I'm between a 36.5 and 37 as well. I have tried the 37s already but would like to try a 36.5 and see the difference. However, in my boutique as well as online, I have mostly been seeing only full sizes. Did they stop doing Oz in half sizes?

This is 36.5. My foot wasnt hanging off when i tried the 36 (my usual size) but it was right at the end of the shoe, and looked slightly small.

Honestly that looks a little big to me. Might be the angle though… I just don’t like to see visible, uncovered real estate of the back of the shoe. I’m surprised there’s that much of a difference between half sizes on you.
Mine get in tomorrow so I can compare the two sizes. Will be sure to post pics!

Haha I see what you mean, now that I'm staring at my own picture. Welp. Excited to see yours tomorrow, please post pictures!

Thanks for sharing the pic. I think they look a tad big too. But I agree it might be the angle though.
If you tried walking with it and it doesn’t feel lile it’s going to come off, it might be ok.
My concern witha slightly bigger size was that, I walk fast and the shoe is going to be left behind lol.

From the angle, the size you have looks a bit big to me as well. In my case the 37 fit like this. My store didn’t receive 36.5 so I opted for the 36. my foot was at the edge but I felt the shoes will fly if I got the bigger one. I’ve worn it quite a few times already and it still loosened up a bit.

Ok here we go. Got the 37.5 Oz mules. Lengthwise, these are much better! The back most part of my heel lines up with the back of the shoe, with the contact patch (sorry, tire term) of my heel and insole slightly forward. On the 37, the contact patch was at the edge of the insole, with back most part of my heel slightly aft of that.

Concerns: The 37.5 is slightly bigger around. It feels looser. Having said that, the 37, being more snug around and toward the front of the foot, forces me to jam my foot inward more to make sure it doesn't hang over the back. I feel like my toes have to grab to keep the foot from being pushed out the back. And I know it will stretch. On the 37.5 I just slip my foot in, and although it's loose my foot is still IN. I have small feet, with a wide toe area, but stupid high arches. The arch part is the one I usually struggle with the most, with shoes pressing on that area uncomfortably.

I'm 95% sure I'll be sending the 37s back, and keeping the 37.5. And with that, I am making a plea to anyone who owns these to please share your experiences with comfort level and stay-on-the-foot-ability of these lovely Oz mules, please!

Sorry photos were upright when I selected them but ended up sideways in the post!!!
Here's another one showing the difference between the sizes. Very slight! The one on the right/top is 37.5

I like the look of this size on you. I can’t comment on the staying power.
However, I ran into a similar conundrum and my priority was length. For breadth and staying power I would use an insert (not a lot of folks like doing that though)
PS: They look really chic though

Thanks. My guess is that since it's morning and my feet are clean and dry they're not going to stick as well as they would once the day wears on.

Unfortunately now I'm addicted, and will be seeking more H shoes. Black loafers, beware!

Also, since this is an Ode To thread, these lovely red heels are from a few seasons ago, purchased at Ala Moana in Hawaii 2018? 2019?
