Fits perfectly, Great Improvements to the Original Design, Well made
This is my first time purchasing Kaitlyn Pan shoes. I bought them having read the reviews prepared for the strap to be loose and for me to take it to the cobbler for cheap alteration, but as it turns out the straps fit perfectly! The back strap is not too tight and does not slip down and I can wear these shoes all day.My feet measures are 23.5 cm long, my usual size is US size 6.5, which is an EUR size 37. I am 113 lbs and 5'5 ft. I have normal width feet, but my feet are flat. I ordered my usual size of US 6.5, it fits true to size. I tested it indoors and outside for a three days before I made this review.I sprayed a nanotechnology leather protector before wearing them outside, it remains to look perfect. Although keep in mind sheepskin leather is luxurious but more delicate compared to cow leather or goat leather. Most other dupes or replicas of the Chanel 2015 sling back shoes not only don't get all the important details right but also they don't improve on the original design. Kaitlyn Pan achieves both these things. The perfect pointed almond toe is identical to the originals, which is the most important feature that flatters and lengthens all feet, especially wide or flat feet without sacrificing comfort. The original Chanels' have a heel height of 2.6 cm, these have a heel height of 2.5 cm, the visible difference is quite minimal if any. I prefer the color of the beige of this shoe compared to the original because the shade might not match my dark black skin tone as a nude but is a more flattering shade to my complexion and undertone.Most people don't seem to realize the original Chanel also have a black fabric toe (not suede) but in grosgrain ribbon instead of canvas, Kaitlyn pans version material choice is more durable. The originals are made of goatskin leather making their uppers slightly more durable but the delicate sheepskin upper takes color more beautifully and is much softer and nice feeling on the skin. These are probably the most comfortable shoes I own, especially due to the lambskin sole. The outer bottom sole is more advanced and durable than the original Chanels', it features rubber gritted bottom which makes it more stable and non-slip in various weather conditions. They improved and the back strap compared to the originals because it has an elastic and better construction . Due to this, the original Chanel slingbacks are not as comfortable.The construction of these shoes is top tier high quality in materials, handsewn, perfecting stitching, and glue virtually perfect. Measuring compared to the original, I may even say, the construction is even better than the original. Overall I prefer these shoes compared to other dupes and the orginal. This shoe design is as if it was made for me, and look elegant, classic and yet surprisingly youthful.They don't have the CC logo and the bottom of the heel, which is probably the only major visible difference at first glance. but that's because it not a fake or replica of the original. Instead, it is similar but vastly improved on the original design it was inspired by without the inflated cost. Which highlights why it is vital to have dupes in the fashion market and cultural space.I love these so much I might order these again, to have a spare! my only request is that for Kaitlyn Pan to offer more colorway options and fabrics options, So I can order more! Kaitlyn Pan, please don't change the design of this current stock, the quality is perfect.I will add further pictures to my review later on

BEST CC DUPES OUT THERE! FAST SHIPPING> TRUE SIZE.
I wish I could give 10 stars to these AMAZING gorgeous, classic shoes. So comfortable. I wear 11M and these fit true to size. Like a 42 european size. Lightening fast shipping. I ordered on a Thursday and received on a Monday. These are the perfect shoes for work and running errands. I LOVE them. Very comfortable and the heel gives a lovely boost to my already 5'10 height.

Great Shoes, Bad Fit
I bought these shoes twice because of the fit problem. So I will leave 2 reviews, one with the fit too small, and one with the fit too big. The problem really is the elastic. I LOVE these shoes and I ended up keeping the wrong ones. What you HAVE to do to make these shoes work is buy your size and have the elastic tightened. I kept the smaller ones and tightened the elastic and they hurt my toes. I have actually considered buying another pair but I can't find them anymore. If you purchase these shoes, they are exactly as all the reviews say, just plan to either sew the elastic shorter or take to shoe repair for them to do. SO sad every time I wear these shoes.

If you're reading this you've made a lucky find!
I own (too) many overpriced designer shoes and this pair fits right in with my collection. The democratic price is in no way indicative of the quality; these are top shelf. My only complaint is the elastic at the heel is super stretchy and can fall off my narrow heel when I walk but I know a quick and inexpensive trip to the shoe repair will take care of this minor glitch. Highly recommend!

This. Are. Amazing! I follow a lovely lady on instagram that had these and rarely would buy clothing online I couldn't return to the store but I took my chances and now I want to get the whole Kaitlyn Pan collection!To start, the delivery was amazing, very nice shoe box that came with a thick cloth shoe bag for traveling. All very high quality which I was not expecting!The shoes are even better than I thought they'd be too! Soft and comfortable, perfect height, I'd say it's true to size. The only problem I have is with my feet, I have abnormally thin heels, so the back strap would slide a little but not severely. Still people with normal feet should have no problems!Can't wait for fall to get her boots! Please make release more shows!! I'm in love!!

Two tries to get the right fit, but definitely worth it!
It took me two tries, but I got the right size and they are wonderful! I have a wide foot, depending on the shoe, I can go anywhere from a 6W to a 7M or a 7W. I first tried the 38's, they were a little long and the strap slipped - but the width was very comfy. I went down to a 37 and everything is right - length is perfect, strap doesn't slip and width feels great. The box and the shoes were marked 7, but under the sticker on the shoe it said 6.5 I would call these a 6.5 W I would definitely get these in another color if they are offered!

I liked them a lot but after the second wear
After several times purchased, returned and exchanged, I finally got my shoes. I liked them a lot but after the second wear, the sheep skin leather ready to start peeling up...
