calling all shoe addicts [SOLD]

I'm selling a pair of Acne Atacoma wedges in size 37. I bought them, and they're too small. I'm asking only for what I paid, which was $480 + $15 (shipping & handling from Sweden) + $185.50 in U.S. custom & duties taxes. Yeah, that part really sucked.

They're the black leather ones with a silver bottom and sold out everywhere. As much as I love them, I can't bring myself to shove my feet into a pair of shoes that are awesomely too small.

I'll upload pics tomorrow - I only got four hours of sleep last night, and my caffeine intake is making me crash. zZzzZzz.

  2. too big for me!
    that customs part is exactly why i won't buy directly from acne ever again. i paid $173 on a $449 dress that ended up too small, and i lost $43 sending it back to them. plus it took 4 weeks for them to receive it: 2 days to get from NYC to Sweden, but 3 weeks, 5 days for Acne to get it out of Swedish customs. it's ass.

  7. Do you normally use a size 37? Or are they just really small..? :)

  8. They seem to run a bit small. I would say that this would be perfect for a US 6.5.

  13. I´m so in love with these shoes, and have been surfing on the www. to see if I can find a pair in size 37. I´m wondering, are you normally a size 37- are they small/ big in size?
    ...and probobly a stupid question- have you sold your shoes?:)

  14. There have been a few questions regarding these, so I'll state the following:

    - Size up for these shoes. They run small. I wear a US7/French 37.5/Italian 37, and I needed a 38 in the Atacomas.
    - Try to purchase from a company within your own country in order to avoid having to pay extravagant duties & taxes.

    Dee: I purchased them from the Acne website.
