Getting nervous...I bought these:
(Sold my Julius boots to get them) and have been hearing so many conflicting things about sizing:
Darklands: They told me if I'm a true Euro 43, to get a size 9 Augusta.
Atelier: Told me if I'm a true Euro 43 to get a 10 Augusta
Eternal: same story
Tomatous: tells me a size 10 Augusta (logically 1 size larger than a 9 Augusta) fits up to 2.5 European sizes larger.
What am I to believe?
a.s.

It appears to be a prerequisite of becoming a cult designer here to be completely incompetent when it comes to sizing consistency.
I would go off what the seller said, as long as you didn't say "will these fit size X?" With anything like this always ask "What size do these fit like, " so the seller doesn't craft his response to what you're hoping.Hobo: We all dress up. We all put on our armour before we walk out the door, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that we’re trying to be someone else.

I own Augustas from a couple of seasons and they are...at least tolerably consistent in size.
I'm a EU 43 and in most Augustas i wear a 9.
Got the white lace up from S/S 08 though, which is an 8 and that fits almost bigger than the rest of my size nines:)
The zip up boots however tend to be pretty narrow in the ankle.
Don't own them myself but friends of mine have sized up in the zips to get into them...

Sorry to hear. I had a feeling they would be.. since the measurements are the same as mine.
Originally posted by hommedeguerre View PostI got the boots and they are WAY too big...the sellers measurements were way off. Emailing them now...hopefully they will let me return them...unless anyone here wants them:

I found the high top sneakers to actually fit a bit small, the same size I wear in most shoes and boots was a bit snug for me"AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."
