Does anyone know if these fit true to size? I'm a 7.5 so I would normally go with a 38...unless they fit big. Thanks!

Oh wow. These boots are so fabulous!

Love, love, love these boots - they fit true to size and are very comfortable.

I love these boots, but from a European perspective, they don't fit true to size at all; the 39 is more like a 40 or a 41, i.e., a US 9.5 or 10, while the 38 is definitely an 8.5 max. Bad news for me, as I am a TTS EU39/US 9, and they don't do half sizes, BUT good news for anyone who is a natural 9.5...

(Just for comparison, everything that Rachel Comey makes fits me TTS, compared to which, the Acne boots definitely come up on the half size, e.g., for 8 read 8.5, for 9 read 9.5.

Rebecca. Thank you for the feedback!

Welcome! I suppose it is good news for all natural half sizers. You lucky people.

From the Cuban heel to the zipper pull, this is one of the best ankle boots ever made. I adore mine! Typically a size 7, I went with the 37 and it's perfect!

Just the right amount of edge! I think of this as an every season boot. Pair with skinny denim for fall and winter, and a dress or a pair of cut off shorts in spring and summer! ADORE these.

The height, exaggerated zipper pull and seam detailing on this boot really stand out in THE best way! Eye catching and practical for year round use.

I'm a size 6.5.. Should I size up or down?? Althought the 36 is sold out, can I get away with a 37??
On July 23 2012 Christine wrote
Jen. Hi! I'm also a size 6.5, and personally I would wear the size 7. I always add an insole to all of my boots for extra comfort, and for me, going up a half size is perfect for this. These are such a great staple boot!

If I'm usually a 9.5 in Rachel Comey does anybody have any advice for the pistols? I'm thinking about getting a 39 because everyones saying they run a half size big but I'm normally a 40 in most EU sizes because I have wider feet. Any comments on how the width is?
On August 16 2012 Rachael wrote
Hello Tracy! Fellow coworker, Kim, has been eying these as well. Typically a size 8.5-9, she is opting for the size 38. She, too, considers herself to have a slightly wider foot. Great choice!
On August 27 2012 Nina wrote
I had a client pick these up today. She's usually a 9 or a 9.5, depending on the make, and the 9 fit her perfectly!

So happy these are back!

@Christine, any suggestions for a comfy insole? I've had the pistols for about a month or so and breaking them in is pretty tough in the comfort department!
On January 02 2013 Christine wrote
Hi Tracy! I'm sending you an email with my favorites. Please keep an eye out :)

I have to chime in about how great the ACNE Pistol Boots, in my opinion, break in! Mine are SO soft now, and they've been great in the rainy Northwest weather.

Ditto. I live in mine. I'm neglecting all my other boots!

Sara. Haha! Your neglected boots, and my neglected boots, should start a support group. :) I know exactly what you mean!

I am so obsessed with this boot. It is perfect, year round!

I wore these Acne boots to work yesterday and convinced another Totokaelo gal to buy them. Once you break these in, you will never want to take them off!

Update! If our staff had a uniform, the shoe of choice would be a toss up between these beauties and the Rick Owens Wedge Boot. Truth be told, it's pretty easy on the eyes seeing both running around the shop :)

Christine you are totally right! I'm so happy to have acquired my "foot uniform" yesterday, in fact I wore them right out of the store because I couldn't wait to finally have them on my feet! I love that there's just the right amount of room so my 6.5 feet fit perfectly in the size 36 and don't feel cramped in the slightest. These sons of a gun (haha, get it? pistol? bad pun?) are my new faves!

I signed up for the restock notification, but any idea how likely it is you'll get more in the size 36? I've been on a serious ankle boot kick this past year.
On June 07 2013 Nina wrote
Allison. Hi! You and me both. I have more ankle boots than there are days in the year (okay, sliiiight exaggeration :))! I do have these though, and LOVE them. These are a Totokaelo Signature Item, so we should be expecting more of these. Stay tuned!
