I think the sizes seem very big? I've got a 3 and they feel very spacious (am normally a 3 or a 4 depends on make of shoe), they do make my feet look mahoosive! Still deciding on brown or black ..... I double checked the box to make sure i'd been sent the right size as they do feel on the big size. Anybody else find that?

Dropdeadfred · 25/04/2012 19:43

Piemistress is it perhaps because they are quite wide?

PieMistress · 25/04/2012 19:59

I thought that but my feet are really puffy just now (expecting no.2 in June) so they still felt big. Although I was trying them with my PJs on so should probably dig out some jeans and leggings to get a better idea!

redhappy I'm a 5.5 and ordered size 5 - they arrived today and fit perfect. They are wide which helps (but you could tighten the straps).
Soooooo comfy. Have already been around Sainsbos in them. Grin

Dropdeadfred · 25/04/2012 20:01

Mine are really comfy... I'm quite surprised. They are a lot lighter than they l

Dropdeadfred · 25/04/2012 20:01

Than they look!

TheHouseofMirth · 25/04/2012 20:25

Thanks so much to Cybbo and to Ruby for the code, My size 4s fit perfectly. I and my feet are very happy!

cybbo · 25/04/2012 20:29

Mine came! 3 soggy boxes left behind my said egate (Seriously Kg, invest in some plastic envelopes)

I do like them very much. Agree the brown dont show the sheepskin lining in the picture but hey ho for £30 a pop who's complaining

good sizing for me, so comfy

I love the lining, it just makes them more comfy. And dince I'm in Scotland it will be cold enough for a while yet.

Dropdeadfred · 25/04/2012 20:47

I like the lining too... As I got black I wouldn't consider them summer wear anyway ( if we get a summer!!!)

ruby22 · 25/04/2012 20:57

mine came too, they're rather large as well as wide. I had forgotten kg sizes came up big. So large in fact I was quite convinced they had sent the wrong size as no sizing in them but have just found it stamped on the underside of the top strap and it's a 38 as ordered. They are indeed light and comfy, although a little more furry than I'd thought but as eglu says there's no summer weather yet anyway. I've just lined up other pairs of shoes and they are larger than any pair I own, even a pair of 5.5's. Plus they are black as by the time I decided and ordered the brown had all gone. Not sure at present whether to keep or return. Tried on with skinnies and I look a bit clown-like. But you all seem to like yours.......maybe I'm just too fussy! 14 days to think about it.

Dropdeadfred · 25/04/2012 20:58

Weird.. I often buy a size 4 but bought a 5 and they seem fine.. They don't look clown like at all

ruby22 · 25/04/2012 21:23

are they definitely a 5 dropdeadfred? I was so so convinced thay had sent me a 6!

Panzee · 25/04/2012 21:23

I bought a 40 and I'm usually a 39. They are a bit big but not daftly so.

ruby22 · 25/04/2012 21:26

Can only liken the feeling to some years back when I had some Uggs, they felt like wearing slippers with alot of room at sides and front. It could just be that I spend too much time forcing my feet into narrower, tight shoes!

PieMistress · 25/04/2012 21:45

How bizarre about the sizing, mine are the biggest size 3s ever!

Panzee · 25/04/2012 21:50

True - I'm used to shoes being too small as well!

Dropdeadfred · 25/04/2012 21:56

Haha - maybe this is why they were 75% off!!!

MorrisZapp · 26/04/2012 09:18

Yup. What they all said.

:(

I was so excited to get mine I more them out all day yesterday before admitting to myself they are just too big.

Anybody want them? Black size 6, but feel bigger than that. Will cover postage myself, £30 delivered to your door, madam.

MorrisZapp · 26/04/2012 09:41

^^ I'll even chuck in a couple of unused beauty goodies from my glossybox stash.
Save me from eBay....

PieMistress · 26/04/2012 11:29

That's my fear morris that I love how they look off my feet more than they fit on my feet! Will wear them round the house for a bit to make sure!

Dropdeadfred · 26/04/2012 12:53

Sorry to hear people's shoes don't fit...I ave worn mine all day and are very cosy

cybbo · 26/04/2012 16:16
