Louboutin Sizing Question

Aurora · Marc Jacobs

I am a 6.5 and got a 38 which is a size 7 if that helps at all.

I would go with the 39.5 since they are pretty narrow looking. Is Collette around?

travelgirl · Kate Spade

Ugh...that's hard. My Louboutins did run small. I sized up 1 and 1/2 sizes BUT my shoes are a bit big and it drives me crazy. I would probably size up one full size (for you that would be a 9 I guess).

Are you doing the gilt sale? Which ones are you going to get? Maybe you could google the particular style you are looking at for reviews of that style?

Man! I just have to say that this gilt sale on Louboutins is awesome! I'm so used to websites having Louboutin sales on just the funky styles that few people want--not the classics!

I know, it's sooo tempting. I keep having to remind myself that I am unemployed!

eek I only did the half size up. Hope they work out. I went with the Draped Satin Pump in Black.

I size down actually. I am a 6.5 and I can wear a 6 in them. But it also depends on on what type of shoe it is, the ones that I have are a slingback so they have an elastic band which stretches. You must post what you get ladies!

Oooh-those are pretty-and unique! You will probably be okay by sizing up just by a half size-you can always have them stretched if need be.

Thanks for the reassurance. I might be back asking about strectching since I am not familiar with that. :)

Thanks girls! I ended up not getting any. I waited too long to make up my mind. =)

I would say 39. I'm usually a true 8.5 and 39s just barely fit, while 39.5s are a bit too big.

ETA: Oops. Should have read your whole thread.
