      Hi ! Oooh yes, Bocage indeed ! I knew I was going to forget some 😅
      I don't know Jules et Jenn yet, I will have a look, thank you for the recommendation ❤️

    So many great recommendations Delphine! I love Bobbies et Bensimon 😊 They are my Go-To and are so versatile you can wear them either at work or for leasure time. Bocage is indeed a brand I would also recommend 😊 As for Saint Tropez you also have the fantastic Tropéziennes !

      These brands never fail 👍👌 And yes indeed, there is also the brand Les Tropéziennes ! So many St Tropez shoe brands have developped around these famous sandals style 😅😱

    Bobbies have at least 2 boutiques in Paris. I discovered them last December when I was there. One is near Bon Marche (Rue Cherche Midi maybe? ) and another in the Marais. I've acquired 5 pairs of boots/shoes/trainers since then! Love them! Love Mellow Yellow and Jonak too. My husband loves Paraboot. You've given me a few new brands to check out. Thanks as always! ❤️

    Thanks for this! Right now, I’m having a “shoe problem”: I’ve seen so many great, stylish but comfy low to mid-heeled options this month that I’ve bought way too many. It’s mostly because I love white and ivory ones so much and for once, there are plenty around. At least I’ve been able to take advantage of the July sales on most pairs. But, I’ll save your video for the autumn and review the brands then. I try to get a new pair of boots every autumn; as a year-round daily dress/skirt outfit wearer, I wear them a ton, especially knee-high and thigh-high ones (Stuart Weitzman only for these - I just got a great gray pair on sale).

    I love Bensimon and they are surprisingly comfortable and not expensive. A brand that I really love, and that isn't too expensive on Vinted, is Bosabo. I love how the clogs have some rubber in the middle that makes them more comfortable.

    • @delphinthecity

    I've had great luck with Jonak and Carel. Carel *is* pricey but they have a few significant sales per year which make them more affordable. You do have to move quickly if you're a mid-size, as ever, as they'll sell out quickly. For Canadians: both have a Canadian shopping cart option which bill in Cdn $, which includes the duties and taxes. Carel's quality is absolutely outstanding and the designs are eye catching without being too trendy. Jonak is great quality for the price and both use DHL so you get your packages zippity quick. Other than at Gravity Pope (or Fluevog if your taste is a bit baroque) I haven't found good quality shoes in Canada for years - so it's great to so easily be able to choose from such good French brands. I've had great luck with the quality of Sezanne's shoes, but my oh my, the sizing is inconsistent :-) It pays to go check Reddit or similar before choosing your sizes! Eg. the Vicky loafer in my normal size was gigantic - a full size too big in width and length - while the Paula baby fit just right. ??

    • @delphinthecity
      @delphinthecity  2 месяца назад

      Absolutely ! And thank you for sharing this great shipping information for Canadians 🥰😍
      Sézane sizing is generally inconsistent, it's the same with their clothes... 🫠 A part of me wants to think that it's because they have different cuts for different body/foot shapes ?

    • @sparklie962
      @sparklie962 2 месяца назад

      @@delphinthecity ha, you have a kind interpretation :-) If they were accommodating different body types it would be a lot more helpful if they'd do so transparently, e.g., "our design for curvy body types; our design for rectangular body types etc." For shoe sizes I can't accept such wildly different fits for the same size - just seems careless to me 🙂 They could offer half sizes or a "wide" fit transparently - not expect us to be psychic lol. But hey they seem content to handle all the returns so what do I know??

    • @delphinthecity
      @delphinthecity  2 месяца назад +1

      @sparklie962 ah ah true, I'm always assuming people/brands have the best intentions 😅🙈
      I agree for shoes, they could definitely offer half sizes ! For a new brand I understand that it's too much, but they are big enough now... And they should also have more stocks for popular colors but my guess is, at this point they do it on purpose to keep us all in the starting block for each new launch 🙈
      For clothes at least they do provide generally accurate guidance if it sizes big or small, they should do it for the shoes too ! 😊

    Hi Delphine, danke für die Auswahl an französischen Schuhmarken. Französische Kleider kenne ich mich schon recht gut aus, aber Schuhe, das fehlt noch. Ich gehe mal stöbern. 😊
    Du hast auch schon in Stuttgart gelebt? München ist, glaube ich, schöner, auch das Umland mit den Bergen. (Dafür ist man von Stuttgart aus schneller in Frankreich 😉😃) Schönes Wochenende 🤗

    My rain boots are from Le Chameau, but they’re hard to get on and off, they fit slim at the ankles. Nice quality, though. Maybe their other styles have straighter, less fitted shafts.

    I like my Ballerines with low to medium heels, Repetto and Ballerette are good for those. I adore Sezane’s Paula Babies, but I’m getting tired of waiting for them to restock the colors I want - navy and burgundy. They only offered a few pairs and they sold out in an hour, but these are basic colors, I don’t understand why they don’t stock more. No one wants those lavender or lime green ones, so they’re always available!

    I've been eyeing Bobbies for a while and came to try some Loafers on in London finally. Unfortunately, it seemed they are very tight around the toebox. But later on i thiught it might have been increased sensitivity from the shoes i was wearing prior to trying them on. So my mission to figure out whether they are wearable did not get accomplished

      I don't know Rosenheim very well, but Bavaria as a whole is beautiful !

    I only buy genuine leather*, no faux leather, footwear (and accessories and clothing), and it’s becoming less and less common here in the US, sadly. I know the French focus on quality in everything they do, so I bet these French brands are great. *(The only exception to genuine leather might be a cotton canvas espadrille or sneaker).

    • @delphinthecity
      @delphinthecity  2 месяца назад

      Yes, these brands all use genuine leather for their leather shoes 😊 But yes, no all shoes are meant to be made of leather indeed!
