How are the Pistols running this season?

Anyone have both he Pistols and the Dickers? Can't decide between the two. I am having a boot dilemma. I want too many of them and my budget won't allow it right now...

I have Pistols and Dickers. I love them both but for me the Pistols are a bit more versatile - Dickers are firmly casual whereas I think Pistols can be dressed up a little. Let me know if you have any specific questions!

Mind if I jump in here and as you (or anyone who knows) if the fit for pistols varies much depending on the leather and/or season to season?

I have only one pair. I'm assuming that 37 will be my size for good--as long as they stretch out as like I'm anticipating. & It's not like we have half sizes to contend with.

All of my pistols are my true size (40) and fit me perfectly. And they are all from different seasons! The suede pair feels no different fit-wise from the leather either.
HOWEVER - I know a lot of people tend to go down a size in the pistols, so you may want to seek other opinions just in case!

Nice! Yup, I had to size down :) but was curious about the suede vs. leather fit the most!
Thx girl!

They are great. I love mine. Cant wait to be wearing them again and the more worn they look the more i like them and they are the only things apart from Converse that i can wear all day long. If i have a dizzy spell i might even treat myself to the tan ones. Enjoy !

I can't wait to wear mine out! I just have to resole them first. The first thing that struck me was how incredible comfortble they are. I can't wait to have them be a bit worn out i love that look of the pistols!

I was a tad worried at first because i kept reading that some people found them stiff and took a while to wear in. I found neither of this to be true, they were on my feet i was off ! Like you i was a size down and 4 / 37 is perfect , a size 5 / 38 just rattled around my foot and looked huge.

I dont even want to get mine re heeled ( i usually get shoes re heeled after or 7 wears) because i like the noise they make !

I feel i need to get them resoled so they will last longer and i cant actually wear them. for me they fit great a little snug around the ankles but no biggie and they will stretch
