I've got an SA at Saks that can help you if you need?
I think the bb 105 is prob the most comfortable pumps I own and in suede even more so.
Manolo in general do a good comfy pump.. It's my go to for when I want a break for my feet.
Hope this helps

No worries.
Have sent you a PM
New introduction, but a sad one at that!
I have been a CL fan for many, many years. I have finally purchased my very first pair of Manolos after trying them on and falling in love with the color at NM. One problem....the last pair of these shoes in the entire NM network and they are stained!
I was at the store yesterday and was so excited that the last pair were my size that I purchased them without ensuring that the stain would come out first. The store tried to get the stain out and when they were wet they looked clean, but I also knew that I had suede cleaner at home and have successfully taken out stains from other suede shoes that I have that I wasn't too worried. I knew I could get it out.
After trying my suede shampoo, suede brush, suede eraser and now some vinegar, the stain is not budging! I have no idea what it is as one of the shoes was a demo shoe and couldn't imagine what someone could get on a shoe in a store that would not come out!
So here is the photo. I have already checked with NM and there are no more to be found and TBH there are no other colors that I want right now. This color is also not available at any other store, or even online that I have found. So, what do you all think? Bad enough to return and deal with not having them at all, not bad enough to still wear them? Any other recourse that you know of that NM would offer? Or, lastly does anyone have any other ideas on how to get it out at home? Thanks!

Try to see if BG, Saks, Barney's or Nordstrom has them.
What's the color? Maybe some of us could text our sales people and see if they can find them. I would return if you can't get it out.

I managed to drip grease from some food on my beloved pair of eggplant colored suede pumps. I tried to get it out myself with food starch and baby powder but that only made it worse. I was sick to my stomach because the shoe is out of production. So I sent them to Leather Spa in Manhattan as my last alternative.
I sent both shoes so they would be able to do both shoes if need be. I don't know what they did but you would never know there was ever a stain on the one. It looks brand new! They sent a disclaimer that there was no guarantee it would come out but it did. These guys are the best.
Go to www.leatherspa.com. There's a section you fill out and then you print that form and then send it in with the shoes. If they can't get it out, then no one can.
But I think they will
Good luck!
Thanks so much for the info. Do you mind if I ask what they charged for the service?
I briefly looked at their website and it looks like they can take up to a month to return the shoes?!? [emoji15]
I did manage to lighten the stain a bit and due to it being suede with the different shades of the nap it doesn't look as bad as it did but I may still send them in after I wear them a few times to see if they can get the stain out and protect the sole as well. It's just who knows how long the shoes had been sitting in the store with the stain on them.
In any case I absolutely love them and will keep them, whether that means wearing them as is since it's less noticeable than it was plus they are on the ground and hard to see or if I get them repaired.
