I'm debating which to go for, the patent or regular black?

Is one more comfy than the other?

Which one stretches?

In my personal experience, comparing a plain black leather to a metallic gold, the leather was much softer and conformed to my foot as I wore it, while the metallic was stiff and painful!
 
I just came from Nordies and the SA told me to go 1/2 size up on the Revas. I usually wear a 6 and the 6.5 fit really well. The 6 also fit well, but my big toenail was bumping up against the medallion. I ended up getting the 6.5. The SA got the white patent in 1/2 size up and has been wearing them for a month anddd says they really haven't stretched much. Of course, that could be because it's the patent version. I'm debating getting a pair of 6 off eBay just for comparison's sake.
 
Anyone had any experience with the Kitty wedges? In particular the black patent ones. I usually wear EU38 which I think is a US7? From the sounds of it, I assume I should go up 1/2 a size because it's patent but it doesn't have an elastic runched back so I'm majorly confused :confused1:

I've got a pair of the Kitty's, the black leather from last season, not the patent. I bought a size 11 and they fit perfectly, but the leather dug into the top of my toes and didn't get better with wearing. Plus, it seemed the sole under my heel had zero cushion or support, I felt like I was walking directly on the wooden heel. Not comfy.

I also own a pair of the black leather Reva's and I ordered a size 11, thinking they would fit like the Kitty's and they don't. My 11's are about an inch too big. So, my next pair will be a 10 or a 10.5, but I need to get downtown and try them all on. HTH!
 
Don't keep a smaller size that is too tight now. Not all shoes loosen up. They may, but it could take a year. Keep the larger size that is more comfortable. If you have a shoe that is uncomfortable, chances are you won't wear it, and they will always be uncomfortable on you.
 
I just purchased my first pair of leather Tory Burch Reva Ballet flats today in size 7. Normally I wear size 6.5 or 7 so I thought I would purchase a bigger size because of the elastic at the back. The size 7 feels great and ultra comfortable on but do they stretch after usage? Should I purchase a 6.5 instead?

Thanks! :smile1:
 
Thanks everyone for your advice! I actually went back to the store to try on the 6.5 and I'm finding they fit better. The size 7 had a much bigger bump/gap between the elastic and the bottom of the shoe. The size 6.5 has a little bump/gap and the elastic isn't very tight so I think I'm going to stick with the 6.5.
