NEW SALE Repetto picks!!! (updated 5/6/2014)
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”36052″]
It’s been too long since I mentioned Repetto last…time for more 🙂 Clearly, I’m obsessed, please bear with me.
Since I first started posting about Repetto BB flats years ago, it was not easy to find them available for purchase online. Now it’s getting much easier, and you can usually find them on sale for 50% off – always last season’s colors though. I hope they continue to sell well online, although I know it’s difficult for retailers to manage since the sizing is so complicated for Repetto. Just from my own experience, I ALWAYS recommend sizing up ONE FULL size for Repetto BB flats (I haven’t tried other styles) – I usually wear a 38 (8), so I order 39’s in Repettos. I do have one pair of black flats that are a 38.5 and they’re quite snug.
My own collection will include 4 pairs once my Rodarte x Repetto flats get here – right now I have a black pair (too small), a nude pair, and a grey suede with perforated cap toe pair.
I get heart palpitations just looking at this picture from Lost and Found:
As of right now, here’s my list of where to buy Repetto online. Not all of these places CURRENTLY have Repetto in stock, but they have definitely carried the brand in the past. Also, if you’re looking for a pair on sale, it’s worth it to run through all the links here, there are quite a few available for $150 or less.

Did I miss anything? Please let me know if you know anywhere else online to buy or if you find ANY pair in a size 39 for about $100 🙂
thanks for the list of repettos online. it’s been a while since my last purchase, and now that my feet are too big for the 39s, it looks like i’ll have to restock. sometimes Toast carries Repetto–on sale, even–but the shipping is expensive.
*sigh*
I wish I had read this a few months ago, before I ordered the Rodate for Repetto flats. I went out of town right as they arrived and when I returned and tried them on, it was too late to return them to Opening Ceremony (which is where I bought them online). Guess I should put them on eBay maybe? Outside of the fact that the sizing was wrong for me, i wasn’t really a fan of how much of my toes showed–is that a feature of all Repetto shoes?
Also, just discovered your blog, and I really like it.
hi bonnie – i think the “toe cleavage” is one of the things i like about repetto, but in my opinion, my j crew flats show MORE of my toes than my repettos…
i definitely think you should ebay your shoes, but i’m sorry you got stuck with them. repetto is really tricky to get right the first time, but once you know your size, you can stalk the sales and find some great buys!!
Creatures of Comfort sells a large selections of Repettos, and the best selection, in my opinion…
Gretchen! the gorgeous mouthwatering rodarte x repetto oxfords are on gilt in their “tailoring” section… I randomly stumbled upon them today after I’d been eying them for ages at OC and now they’re $230… much more palatable!
gilt is where i got my rodarte x repetto ballet flats!! that’s still way more than i usually spend on repettos, but for the collab, it was worth it i think.
The Commes des Garcons collab is $167 on Saks now! There is a 39… Their prices will go up after their after-Christmas sale.
they’re on sale at opening ceremony for $130 right now!

Thanks you for your attention
Rgds,

hi fellow Repetto-appreciators! (: just wanted to add one site: MYTHERESA.COM
I live in NYC- and even with the hefty shipping charges (DHL (fast! at least) $60), MyTheresa’s sale prices make buying them online more economical than going to Bergdorf Goodman (the only store in NYC with a significant selection of Repettos, every season).
enjoy!
**PLEASE HELP**
is there any OFFLINE store to try the jackson loafers?
they are so charming and i am in need to get a pair..
but i not confident about the right size and want to try them on..
i saw them at saks, but they didnt carry the jacksons..
does all the pairs have the same fitting?
As far as I know, only Saks offline has Repetto shoes, although it might be worth it to try NM and bergdorf’s. I’m not sure all the styles run big, I really think all the styles have different sizing…
Where did you find them online? I’m sure if you contact the boutique they’ll be able o advise you on sizing.
Sorry I can’t help more!
If you’re in NY, creatures of comfort is having a big sale, repettos included. At opening ceremony they were on sale as well. good luck!
Hi All, Regarding Repetto sizing and why we in NA have trouble when we want to buy Repettos to fit by choosing the shoe size we normally wear. This is the reason-the french system of measurement starts at “0” not at “1” like other shoes ( ie: a size “40” for a shoe made under the French system is in reality a size 9 in our NA system or a “39” is actually an 8 in our system). This does not hold though for shoes made under the EU system and so a “40” under that system is a 10 in our system. So when ordering shoes online one needs to know if the shoe is made for the EU, FR or NA market ( and you can not go by the fact that the shoe might indeed say made in China- yes- this is the reality that many saying they are made in Italy,Spain or Portugal ( which uses the EU sizing) or France such as Repettos or Roger Vivier ( which use the French sizing) are made in the country we are believing them to be.
However the “buyer” aka company of the show will specify to the factory making the item which shoe measurement system to use so just remember if made for France and you take a size 9 in your NA bought shoe then you will indeed need a FR40 or if made for the EU and you take a size 9 in your NA bought shoe then you will need to buy a EU39.
Sometimes the best thing to do is to memorize your foot measurement in cms(when buying EU or FR shoes) and if possible ask the seller (or online store) to give you what the insole in cms is for that shoe. This should allow you to know without hesitation that the shoe will fit.
Matches.com sell them too!
Repettos can also be found at: mohawkgeneralstore.com
I just got off the phone with the repetto store in the Marais and they say they are opening a store on West Broadway in NYC this summer.
