Hey,

Just got these - gutted they don't fit. I paid a fair sum for them lightly used, looking to not lose too much on the resale. Grail shoe for me, and I thought I got a good deal on them and have relisted them for the same price.

Anyways, super nice - dense but not too heavy rubber sole, nice medium height on the creeper heel, and pretty much the perfect silhouette. I'd imagine these would fit a normal 8-8.5. I'm a 9-9.5 and they were too small all around. They fit pretty TTS to a half size big, a full size big will likely work if you have a foot that's on the slimmer side.

PM if interested for actual pics that the last seller took. There is heel wear - he sort of understated it but it's not very noticeable in real life. I was going to take them to the cobbler but it doesn't seem very urgent in person. The sole is super solid in person and looks like it'll last for a while - it's not soft like Ann D sneakers are or traditional crepe soles. He said he only wore them a handful of times and I'm inclined to believe him because the leather is in excellent condition - still nice and buttery, not a lot of creasing, and retaining structure well. I want to say these are horse leather (?) but I'm not sure.

Basically - perfect shape, nice white stitching to make them more versatile and a little fun - you really can't go wrong. Slightly chunky in a very cool way. I would've worn the crap out of these.

It's probably going to be a while until I find another pair of Ann D creepers, but at least now I know that I need a size 42. Would love to trade for something similar to fit a 42, and willing to throw in some cash an an extra incentive
