The So Kates are NEVER comfortable when you first wear them. They ALWAYS hurt. Basically, that means NOTHING. In my case, I bought them true to size, based solely on how they fit around the heels. The heel fit is critical, because if you buy them too big, in a mistaken attempt to spare your toes the pain, the shoes will always slip and slide off when walking, and the more they're broken in the more they will pop off as you walk, basically making the shoes unwalkable. So buy them so the heel fits right, and suck up the pain in the toes, at first. Now, don't wear them outside, don't wear them for anything, until you do some serious at-home breaking-in. I recommend wearing them for at least an hour a day, at home, for six or seven weeks. And don't just sit or stand; that does no good. Get in some serious walking. Loubies stretch more than almost any high heel I've ever worn. So put in the time, put in the walking, every day. At the end of seven weeks, my So Kates were good to go. Yes, the toes still squeezed, and they were still tight. But they didn't hurt. That's because the leather had moulded to my toes. The tightness therefore was uniform, without any crushing sensation around the big toe or, as in your case, the pinky. That's what it takes, and the shoes then become totally worth the expense and one of the best high heels I have. Be patient and put in the time. It's worth it, and you'll get your money's worth, finally, out of the shoes. I hope you haven't gotten rid of them!

Lmfaooooo when she said her pinky toe was dying

The iriza is very classy but sexy I have three pairs of them. The so Kate’s are a no most people end up letting collect dust in their closet it just isn’t worth it. Invest in 100 mm

Some styles require you to sizes up 2 to 4 sizes. (Including half sizes) also, you can get shorter styles. 100's and lower may be more comfortable, or get the platforms.

What size did u get

It’s so hard to choose with the so Kate style they are sooo sexy looking but some people like her literally cannot even wear the shoes out at all but other reviews they swear by them and can walk perfectly with only minimal discomfort so I feel like This is just depending on the person I wouldn’t jiSt dismiss wearing these I think some women might just not know how to properly walk in very tall arched heels they should stick with the lower ones and some people are just more sensitive to feeling pain like that. If you can’t walk in tall heels or if you just get pain in your feet easily, or if you aren’t used to very arched very steep set heels you can either practice slowly going taller or stick with the lower ones SO KATE are cute and wearable if you know how to walk in steep Heeels it takes practice and sizing is KEY

Lovely shoes that need breaking in alot , I have So Kate and original Pigalle's ,my toes was totally jammed inside , squeezed into the point with no space , sales advisor said they will break into my foot shape but because I have big bunions it took a while, , Did you keep them ? Regards Sharon.

They are pretty shoes. I would not wear them either maybe just for watching tv lol! I am sure if you keep them and you resell it later, maybe the value will go up. I don't really know but they are so pretty! I feel like they are an art piece and not really to wear if they are that uncomfortable. The ones that you have! For those who do wear them you girls are awesome! I wouldn't be able to do that!

Omg I relate I love my iriza 100 mm but honey ... they hurt !! Lol I try to wear but it’s so painful I need tips lol

What a shame. I'll be buying a heel no longer than 70mm.

Put shoe stretcher in them.. I wear size 15 and sometimes I have to UAE shoe stretcher. Tighten up and give one full turn both ways length and width for 3 days then just length for 3 days and leave a week will be comfortable!

Drink every time she pronounces louboutin wrong, you’ll be drunk..

You literally have to go in and try on sizes. I’m a 8 and I have a wide foot. I tried on 38.5, 39, and got 39.5. Ended up returning for a 40 and they are very comfortable compared to the 39.5. They are suppose to feel tight but not hurt.

I have a pair of 120 mm pigalles and honeyyyyy... the toe box is so tight I can't even walk. it makes me so sad. 😩 but im thinking of investing in a stretcher, bc they aren't patent so they should have some give. I hope we end up being able to wear our shoes, mines a ltd edition style from 2014 and id loveeee to wear them...

Got my so Kate I normally wear a size 8 but I think I need a 10 for comfort

Question I’m planning on getting my GF a pair she wear a 7 should I get a 7.5

Too painful. I only get the 85 MM and they are still sexy!!

My problem with these is that I feel they overdress the outfit, and that the red soles get damaged too easily. A week to break them in at home means the red sole is destroyed way before the real day where you go out with them

did u wear ur so kates yet

Put 2 pair of socks then shoes blow dry them let them cool take socks off slip feet back in perfection 🥰

u need to wear ur so kates at home for a week or two thats the way to do it ok

yes in hindsight I’m sure you will research what will be comfortable yet stylish on your foot as there is a break in period. So Kate is lovely to look at but was not an option for me either.

I have some and they are not practical to wear. I would rather get Pigalles

good taste you have beautiful and powerful models you will be very beautiful with them I would like to see you with them a and beautiful nails

L0l the SO KATES are so sexy😍.. I had to buy mine 2 sizes larger. Hence, they play absolutely NO games 😩

i hate when people drag on their story about where or how they got the shoes, like i just came here to see the damn shoes not hear a damn story about them💆🏻‍♀️
