I bought 40s first, thought they were too big, then got 39s and realized they were too small and learned to live with the fit of 40s and now I have 5 pairs of shoes in size 40 on that sole and I'm very happy with them all

I would say try to get a pair of 39s first from a place that you can easily return to, if only to try them on first, but it's hard enough just to find 39s :/

Ah my competition. A sales rep at the new york MMM boutique told me they sent a package of their stuff from last season. This was months ago, I really wonder how yoox works putting out 1 Isaia suit, 2 loro piana sweaters. Maybe they just pick a random box to open up and put up on the website.

Yah, they're solid grey. I think they look better with some contrast.
