When I tried to confront the support about the item being fake they sent me same old bs about their professionals. As long as you haven’t purchased them - nobody cares. I just don’t want some girl to get them and be disappointed because the quality is not there.

I have been collecting Louboutin for a long time I have been to their shop in Paris with my friend (he had his shoes custom made there back in the day) and this is very much a fake pair they are trying to sell as real ones. And when confronted about it - not a single f was given. Incompetence.
Last photo shows that they are most likely not real (plastic cover on the sole, heel trim is too wide, heel tips are too wide and all off, insole font is all over the place and too thick and not crisp, the heel sole is not centered and is off on both shoes)

Hey guys. Need your help. My feet changed a bit and now some shoes do not fit like they used to. Are those still good or do I need to size up with a new
pair? (I might need to loosen up the bottom strap)
I plan to get a pair of Cannes.
Thanks in advance!

Hi all! Does anyone know what’s up with that abandoned race track? Is there a way to access it?

If I had to guess it’s probably private property but maybe there are cases or events when they let people in?

Barely worn Alaïa heels for $28.50
MSRP was around $790+

Does anyone know what is that dog tag? Was it a part of some bigger set or anything like that? I couldn’t find any useful information.

Swift Toolbox 26 in Feu

She is a little hard to photograph because the color looks different depending on how cool the light is. But nevertheless she is my crown jewel. Definitely an underrated Hermès bag.

Just arrived today! They are so weird and fun at the same time. Perfect addition to a total black outfit. Shout out to u/LWolde for introducing me to the world of CL outlet stores 😆

Should I keep them or are they too small now? After the pregnancy some of the shoes I own do not fit like they used to… are those too small now?
They are still very comfortable and easy to wear.

PS: my toes are naturally kind of twisted when I wear anything (except for Birkenstocks lol). Too many pointy toes through the years.

It just arrived and it smells like LEATHER.
Like I would probably not need any perfume.

She is spacious like my CL Cabata but a bit heavier. Yes, yellow is a neutral! 😆 my wardrobe is mostly black/navy/taupe, and white; so to me she will be that colorful accent everyone needs.

Needless to say, it was love at first sight. I am 5’9” so the size is just right. It doesn’t look oversized. And I am pretty sure she will last me for years.

Please help me to figure out the sizing. I am normally 39 in all Louboutin heels and 39 in flat sandals but my feet are narrow. However, I own 38.5 in other brands like Manolo Blahnik. Some people say that this particular shoe fits somewhat large because nappa leather stretches out. So I might want to go half a size down.
And no I cannot try them on in store as we don’t have any nearby.

She is a new addition to my collection and a complete accident. I wanted a project bag for a while. To see how I can restore something neglected. But I have never thought about a bag in… Carbon fiber.
And man was she neglected. Scratched up CF, dirt, blacked out letters on the handles (with a sharpie! Blasphemous!), sad and very dry leather on the handle. The interior was intact. Surprisingly. Some elbow grease and car detailing chemicals later she is almost 90% brand new.
I cleaned and conditioned the leather to help it straighten up and hung her on the hook to return to the original shape. Carbon was polished and protected from UV as well. I cleaned up sharpie with a non acetone nail polish remover and polished the aluminum part of the handles (had to unscrew them).

Overall, I am very happy with the result and she gets to live her best life with a new twilly that is on the way.

Hi guys. So I got some good advice here and thought to come back and show what the final result is. I used Sonax OS 02|06 , renew & restore wipes by TurtleWax and Colourlock Smooth Leather Care Kit (for the leather handle)

What I worked with: scratched (deep and not really) carbon fiber, sharpie over silver engraving on the metal part of the handle, deformed and dry leather handle.
What I did: cleaned up the surface, polished deeper scratches with the TurtleWax wipe, cleaned with microfiber , applied Sonax manually as I do not have a machine (yet?), removed sharpie with gentle nail polish remover, cleaned and polished the metal parts (again Sonax), cleaned the leather with Colourlock foam and applied their conditioner to protect from UV lights.

Hi all
Please don’t hate me. But I need a recommendation on what products to use to manually clean up and polish and protect my new vintage carbon fiber bag (handles are aluminum)

Preferably something to protect her from the sun that wouldn’t transfer to my clothes with time. Any recommendations are welcome since I am too afraid to screw her up

I tried some gentle clean and polish for light scratches but there is still a lot of minor scratches and deeper ones. The fiber is not showing tho. Coating seems to be solid and thick.

Definitely not a walking pair. But that collar is adorable.

Update: they are 120 mm
