Thoughts on the Jumping?

[aksaiyo]

I recently became interested in a style called “Jumping” on the CL website.


It seems that it’s decently popular with celebs, Gal Gadot and Bella Hadid plus others have worn it



Anyone here own this or tried it? How is it comfort wise? How does it compare to the Iriza or Pigalles in comfort? Did the strap dig or rub? Or was it wonderful, keeping the foot in place for more secure walking?

I have them in black patent. I got them is my usual CL 38.5 but they are a little teeny bit looser than my Pigalle Follies and So Kate’s. I haven’t yet worn them out of the house, but I love that the strap adds a different feel and helps the shoes feel more secure due to the slight looseness.

Thanks for the feedback! I guess the strap should really help with the security, so perhaps it being slightly looser isn’t a problem like it would be on regular pumps.

So I tried on one Jumping and one of my PF’s so I could better gauge the differences/similarities. The toe box is wider/looser, but the heel is still snug. And the cross strap has a small elastic portion so it’ll fit a variety of foot shapes without looking or feeling too tight.

Hope that helps!

It helps a lot! I definitely want a pair in black now, instead of another pair pigalles (I have a pair of nude pigalle 100s), this one seem more interesting probably will be more comfortable!

I think they are cute- especially like the black

Love these in either color, but I would probably only feel comfortable wearing them with a long bottom (maxi dress, full- or close to it - length pant) because I think it would break up the look we all covet when we show our bare legs, which is that they go on for miles and miles.

Just my two cents on what could be a very minor, or maybe even insignificant, consequence of the cross strap and how it affects the leg’s and foot’s proportions.

That’s a good point! I will have to think on this!

Agreed!

I’ve yet to wear my pair, but I’ve only envisioned them with pants or maxis.

Interested in getting more info about Jumping...
So far my experience with CL hasn’t been one of the best, my VP and Open Clic are sitting in my wardrobe unused, they’re not the most comfortable shoes I own and other designers get my preference, I admit.
But I just can’t get over how CL shoes look so sexy and eye catching, and the Jumping could be a good compromise since the heel isn’t so high and the strap may keep the foot in place.
Plus, I don’t have a pair of black patent shoes!
Any other experience?
