Actually, Manolo did have some changes in his stamping/heel taps, so I'm pretty sure they actually are real.

Thank you. I've been buying his shoes since the 80's and have purchased over 2,000 pairs over the years (fortunately my foot has changed sizes a few times). I've never purchased a pair with lifts that are a different color hue than the heel (dark colored shoes with black lifts). But yes, anything is possible.

That 2000 pair count clearly makes you the expert (holy crap on that, BTW...!), but I do remember those kinds of taps on some of the new models. Those taps may not even be original to the shoes (which does raise suspicions), but now I'm interested in anyone with experience with the new styles!

I buy the majority of my shoes from the boutique in Manhattan. And yes, maybe the tips have been changed elsewhere. You never know.

Just wanted to let you know I saw another pair of Manolos with the same kind of taps (different shade taps than heels with the metallic feature at the junction of the tap/heel), so they're probably authentic.
