Christian Louboutin sizing

[HiDawl]

Hello Everyone!

I got this information from SAKS.com

WOMEN'S SHOES (INTERNATIONAL EQUIVALENTS) for a size 6.5 US
USA 6.5
UK 3.5
ITALY 36.5
FRANCE 37.5
JAPAN 23.5

I am a size 6.5 in US. Now, given this information, if I wanted to purchase the Miss Marple Shoes by Christian Louboutin, would my size be a 37.5 or a 36.5? At Saks, the description says the Louboutins are made in "Italy." So would this make it an Italian shoe? Which would make my size 36.5? Please help!!

I would really love to own either one of these:

Pics from Ebay.


I just don't know my size. The Beverly Hills store does not carry them, so I really don't have a way to try them on. ANy help would be great!

HiDawl - Where are you going to get them from? Find some place that offers a return policy. I would suggest a 36.5 or 37 in those.

When I can't try on the shoe I usually ask for an insole measurement and compare it to the shoes I have.

Shoes are so hard to buy when you can't try them on. I have shoes that range from 8 - 9.5 depending on the style/manufacture. Although with CL I've been consistant with sizing.

Thanks

Thanks Aspen! The insole for 6.5 measures just shy of 9.5 inches, so that's pretty true to size....I think I'm going with 6.5. I'm buying it!!! (Round ones). I just need to get my paycheck! HAHA! Thanks everyone!

i was wondering if anyone could help me on the sizing for more dressy sandal type louboutins, particularly the 15 minute model.

i usually wear a 39.5 and was wondering whether it would be wise to go up a size?

Hello
It's kinda difficult to detemine the sizing. I wear 38.5 and 39 for Jimmy Choo sandals and slingbacks, 38.5 and 39 for manolo, so I guess I'm a US 8.5. For louboutin,
- yoyo zeppa (suede ones), both 38 and 38.5 goes fine with me.
- helmut, 38.5 (but it's a bit loose for me cause it's too long)
- DECOLTISSIMO, 38.5
Cheers

SIZING:

please help; I used to wear sz40 Louboutins -- fitted perfectly -- but starting with the 2004 YoYo's he seems to have changed his lasts, and for the YoYo I needed a 40.5. Yet for the Salobat I took a sz40. Then came "Simple Pump" and again I needed a 40.5. So: what size should I ask for for (1) Gwenissima (assuming I can find one) and (2) Miss Marple? Please help, as I can only buy online or by phone (because I do not live near NYC or any other CL boutique).....

My experience with louboutins has been that I needed to go up a half size from what I normally wear. I am normally a size 41 but louboutins I have found to be more narrow than other designers so a 41.5 is more comfortable for me. Maybe the smaller sizes fit differently. With the round toes however, I've been told they are more true to size so no size up needed. The sandals I believe also run true to size. It's more the pointy toe pumps or open toe styles that tend to run small in my experience.

Thanks mcross!!!

I just found out the Very Prives in suede run a half size big.

 

[leyla m.]

one quick question please

if i am a 38.5 in Very Privé
and a 37.5 in Helmut

what size would i be in Yoyo Zeppa Slings (im thinking 38 ?)

pls help

 

[iLoveCouture]

Leyla -

I have the yoyo zeppa slings w/o the platform in patent. I went up a 1/2 size on these. I could have gone up a full size though.

Good Luck with these!

 

[leyla m.]

^thank you i lovecouture.

so do you mean i should take a 38 or 38.5
may i add that i am generally a 38.5 in pumps ,closed toe (except the Very Privé)
and a 38 in open toe Louboutins..

any more help pls?

 

[iLoveCouture]

Since you wear a 38.5 in the Very Prive which is a 1/2 size small, I assume that your general shoe size is a 38. In that case, get the 38.5. Hope this helps!

 

[leyla m.]

im very confused.
the very privé size just like a normal closed toe pump to me.. thats why i thought 38 should be fine?
no?

leyla, I have the suede Very Prives in a 37 and they're too big for me. I normally wear a 37 in most shoes. I had these on preorder for months so I'm keeping them! I had to put two Dr Scholls heel liners in them to make them not fall off my feet when I walk. Maybe it's just the suede that run big?
