^^^Laureen is right! Also, the sizing is the same!!! I was tempted to go up 1/2 size because it's patent but I am glad I didn't!

does anyone know where i can find a list of stockists in japan? i dont think the CL site is ever going to come back up!

 

[louboulover]

so i went and tried on basically every single shape of louboutins in harrods...none of them fit. there was a problem with every single pair. although louboutins make ur feet look gorgeous, they arent very kind to them and arent as well made as other brands.
it breaks my heart to admit that i probably wont ever buy a pair

 

[laureenthemean]

^^They just didn't fit, or they weren't comfortable? Did you try sizing up?

 

[umberg]

i mean they were just wrong in some way. some were so painful to wear i could barely try them on, some had weird creases... i know its not my feet because ive never had those problems with other brands

 

[umberg]

oh and i tried a range of sizes, 39 is the best fit but they were still wrong. i really tried so many shoes on, i was in the store for over 40 mins. i felt bad that i wasted their time but i really wanted to find a pair that were right. its such a shame

 

[laureenthemean]

^^That is a shame. I know that one style in particular doesn't work for me, but I haven't had any problems with the others, other than having to learn to walk in super high heels.

 

[JetSetGo!]

Sorry they didn't work out Umberg! At least now you know.

 

[laureenthemean]

^^Jet is right. Your wallet will thank you, too!

 

[candicec]

oh yeah, it's an addiction that's good not to have!

I've tried 3 styles of Loubis a couple of weeks ago and only the N. Privés fitted.
So I bought them, but I wish I didn't. It fits precisely on the front and I even thought I might size up in other styles, but on the back it keeps slipping of. The slingback. I'm not as happy with them as I thought I'd be..

but I might try some other styles when the Azarro in Amsterdam starts selling them. The bretelles and pigalles didn't work for me.

 

[JetSetGo!]

^^^ That happens to some people. A good cobbler can shorten the strap for you. I have larger heels (weird, i know) so that doesn't happen to me, but I've heard that it's a quick adjustment from others.

Just make sure whoever is working on your beauties is good a what they do!

 

[laureenthemean]

BellaCouture, you can also buy Foot Petals Strappy Strips. They're thin strips that you can stick on and it will help grip your heel.

 

[mistress_f]

does anyone have a clue when the site is gonna be launched?

 

[greenlandgem]

Redsole - where did you find those Wallises? I've been looking for over three years, and found nary a whiff of them. You lucky, lucky, lucky woman!

 

[BellaCouture]

Thanks a lot, Jetset and Laureen . I'll definately try it, because so far it's quite disappointing. I can't walk for 2 minutes or my shoe is off.
