also, look at the history of all the shoes youve owned. do they wear out quick regardless of the price, brand or whatever? all my shoes have had a pretty long wearing life, cheap or expensive.

None as I returned them. One shoe was obviously worn. I would`ve turned a blind eye to it but at the price point I was expecting more. Leather was thin. I went TTS and the outsole measured the same as my Guidis but the Ann Ds just looked liked clown shoes on my feet. I couldn`t have sized down as getting my feet into the boots was already tight around the mid-section of each boot and I have fairly narrow feet. Ann D CS said stick to normal size.

I wouldn`t say they`re on par with Doc Martens. The leather is def. supple but awfully thin and coupled with the weird sizing, I just deemed they weren`t worth retail price.

I really like how they look but I will be saving just a bit more for some Guidi 795v.

QUESTION @brokeassp
I bought these from Ssense and debating exchanging for a smaller size. I normally wear 45 in everything else, but the Ann boots feel a bit big and I'm debating getting the 44 from Ssense -- widest part of my foot is just below the widest part of the shoe, but feels fine. When you bought these, the Ann D's store said stick to normal size? What do you think?

Ann d sizing is just weird. I get that the bulbous toe box was what they intended but it's just way too big imo.

TY! And you ordered from the brand and they recommended TTS?
