Wonderful! Just take your time breaking them in. Trouser socks or tights will be your friend big time. It took me a couple of wearings to finally be comfortable, but now I love them more than any other shoe in my closet. Their silhouette is very flattering. :smile1:

Thanks for the advise. They came and I love them. A little snug on one foot but I think it will stretch.

I'm thinking about getting the textured almas but I'm not sure about the sizing. I have the pistols in 36 and they fit perfectly, the donnas in 36 and they're a touch loose and the jensons in 36 and they're kind of tight (but I haven't worn them yet so hopefully they'll stretch like the pistols did)

Can anybody with the almas advise? I'm usually a 36 but all my Acne 36's are so different I don't know!

Hi! I'm a US8.5 and usually a EU39. For the pistols I sized down to EU38 and for the Almas my normal EU39. I like my Alma boots a lot. I have the grey suede. The design is quirky and fun, and the heel very walkable. I'm thinking of getting another pair, in plain black, probably around fall.
The textured almas look so unique and fun. I'm sure you're going to like them. 😀

Thank you! I ordered my usual size :)

Can't wait for them to arrive!

Has anyone tried on the Alleas, and if so does anyone know how they fit?

I have the Pistols and Comets in 36, and they fit perfectly. I also have the Jensens in 37 (fits slightly loose, but I'm ok with it) and the Almas in 37 (just a tiny bit tight, but I'll live). I normally get a 6.5/37 in most shoes. I can never be certain with Acne's sizing :(

Thanks!

Okay finally bit the bullet and bought the pistols in black leather. I originally had the suede in a size 39 but just felt too long and made me look like I had slight clown feet. Also it rains here a lot during the winter so I wanted the plain leather ones.

I'm usually a 39/39.5 in designer shoes and an australian 9. I emailed Acne with the sizing issue and they said to get the 38. Going by their chart shoe size, I should go with the 38 in the Pistols.

Heres hoping when they arrive they fit me :panic: Please send me positive thoughts haha.


Meanwhile I'm also eyeing the star boots! Are they more true to size? Should I get those in the 39?

They will fit! 39 would be too big.

I'm not sure about the Star boot sizing, but I thought they were really uncomfortable. The insole felt really hard.

My boots arrived today and I just squeezed my foot in them. They are GREAT length wise however they are super narrow! :cry:

I know the 39s would have been way too big length wise but these are just so narrow that it borderline is way too tight to wear. Should I go to a cobbler so that they can stretch them a bit or should I cut my losses and let them go?

I absolutely love them so much though and they are defs the perfect winter boot so I'm torn. Do these stretch a lot in the width??

Sorry just saw this-they might stretch a bit if you try wearing them with a thick sock to stretch them out.

I couldn't make them work unfortunately :sad: It's weird though because I bought the adriana sneakers in a 38 and they fit perfectly. I think the pistol style may just be too narrow for me.
