thanks - i actually just took them outside to look at them in natural lighting, and realized they are actually definitely black! not sure why they were mislabeled on the site, but not complaining...i have a pair of the pale pink ones from ages ago but always wanted a black pair!

I just bite the bullet and bought a pair of the black leather with silver studs because I found a good deal online. I've been wanting them for years but don't want to pay full priceI am usually a 36.5 and went with the 36. I went into the store hoping to try on the 36 but they only had 36.5 in black / gold. The toes area is tight but the back is quite loose, so I am crossing my fingers that the 36 would be good! Will post pictures when I get them!
So I finally got my boots and just tried them on. The front is VERY tight but there's still room at the back. My feet are medium width. Would they stretch to the point where I would feel comfortable coz I read from previous posts that they do tend to stretched out rather quickly. Or these boots are just not for me and I should return them? I did get them on sale but they are still not cheap ...

I got my first (and hopefully not last) pair!! I’ve had these on my wish list for so long and couldn’t resist the burgundy velvet. I got my true size. I found the half size down was too tight around my toes.
Any recommendations for caring for velvet? Does anyone get a sole put on the bottom for grip and protection?

Hi all, I joined the Susanna club! I got a white calfskin pair with silver HW from Farfetch. This was the last new white pair I could find anywhere, and they were on sale, so I pulled the trigger even though they are a 36, 1-1.5 sizes down from my usual. I normally wear a 37-37.5, and sometimes 38, but I had tried Susannas previously in 37.5 and they were huge (my entire foot came out while the boot was zipped). The 36s are a little snug, particularly with width at the ball of the foot, but my toes have room and my heel still actually lifts up a little bit. They are also SO much more flattering than the 37.5 which made my feet look huge. I compared the 36 side by side to my Isabel Marant Dyna boots in 38 and the Susannas are actually longer! I have been walking around in them wearing thick socks to see if that will help with the width. 36.5 would probably be optimal but not available anywhere. These are so cute and so hard to find in white that I feel like I must make them work!!
Congratulations on your beautiful boots. I think with the leather being so soft you will soon have no problem with width. I normally wear a 37 and I boight them 36.5 but I realized a 36 would also fit perfectly. They run big. So don’t worry about yours. You did well buying them as they are rare in white. Enjoy them!
Thanks for the vote of confidence! I would kick myself if I sent them back. They are the most beautiful white boots in the world!
Update: the boots stretched out after wearing them with thick socks for less than 2 hours. I wore them out for the past two days and they are comfy and fabulous. I don’t think everyone can go down 1.5 sizes but it has worked well for my foot shape!
I tend to wear a 6.5 in heels and a 7 in flats. I tried finding them in-store at multiple stores, but they only had larger sizes available to try on. My toes and ankles tend to run narrow so I'm trying to figure out if I should purchase in a size 6 or 6.5. Any help is appreciated!
I’ve found these to run at least a half size large. I’m a US 7 M ( 37). I wear a 6.5 M in Stuart Weitzman and Frye boots, and a 37.5 in Valentino Rockstud and YSL Tribute and Aquazzura Sexy Thing. In Gucci Princetown I’m a 37.5 also, but a 7M in Gucci Marmont low heel. I was Swimming in the 37 in these ( black leather/ gold studs). I didn’t reorder in the 36.5 because I’d prefer to buy in store where I can try on to avoid sending back another pair. I may even be a full size smaller, based on how big the 37’s were. I’d definitely recommend a half size smaller than your typical size.
@Havanese 28 - So go down to a size 6 since I wear 6.5 in heels or go down to a size 6.5 because that's the size I wear when I wear flats? I wish I could find these available in smaller sizes to try on!
