I looked at Farfetch, Ssence, MatchesFashion, NM and BG and GGDB website and also Instagram there are some pretty cool ones coming out!

I’ve ordered about 5 or 6 from MatchesFashion and they arrive within one to two days via DHL to the US, it’s insane how fast they get here. I love ordering from them.

Good to know. Did you ever return stuff to them? I have the feeling it's always a bit more complicated when companies are from overseas...
 
Take a look at my suede archives, are your sides spaced out like mine are? This is first pair I’ve had that are this bad and I’ve had close to 100 pairs of GG sneakers! I just noticed this. Ugh! Guess I have to exchange them again. I’m afraid they will split open! View attachment 4013687

Oooh that looks bad! Hope you get the replacement fast. Is the slit only in the suede archives? I looked at all of mine (non archives) and they didn’t have it. I’ve been purposely trying not to look at the websites. I’m trying to be good, you see, but I’m secretly eyeing the heart ones in matches [emoji7]

Every single pair of my SS Archive and non Archive have the seam but it’s closed on all of them. This pair SB is going to remove from their inventory. They have 27 pairs of the size 27 in stock in case anyone wants a pair! I’ve been eyeing the leopard SS on matches! Lol

The hearts one is super cute! Almost bought that last week when NM had its 125 off of 500. But ended up getting the hand painted floral ones because I don't know, was feeling spring-y?

Thank you for the pics. I called SB and they are overnighting me a new pair at no charge for the new pair and I’ll send mine back tomorrow. The girl that helped me was so nice and she felt really bad! Hopefully, the third time will be my lucky time!

I have a tiny closet but I make it work. I had a big bedroom as my walk in closet but when my youngest was born we made into a bedroom. I actually keep all of my GG in their boxes except for the fur ones because I don’t want them to get smashed. Someday I’ll do a collection pic, it’s just so much work! Lol

Your Camo ones look great, now I’m thinking maybe I should reorder them! lol

There are so many cool ones coming out. I’m actually returning my red ones I posted the other day, I decided I like the black the best, more neutral and subtle. I and also keeping the white ones with the black sequin star and returning the white with the gold sequins star and I’m done for a while! I’m going to the and order one pair a season! Lol I’m sure it won’t last.....

That’s great they’re sending you a replacement. Good to hear good stories like that. I thot the red ones were cute but I hear ya, so hard to make choices, as another tpf’er said, first world problems.
The camo ones are really comfy. I think I must like the suede toe ones. The suede is grey but it does not have a blue undertone so I feel like that makes it work better with the camo.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a fur pair. Only the pink ones? That had fur on the tongue or something like that. Pics pleeeasasseee. I know, I agree, it would be a lot of effort.
 
Yeah, sales are always an early-bird-gets-the-worm affair. I know how it feels to miss out on things you want!

Did you see the new Nordstrom private edit? It's not a tan color, I think it's grey, but still a neutral...

On a side note, have you ever ordered from MatchesFashion?

I have seen the Nordstrom private ed ones and they are grey, look like they would go with anything. Prob is I have black, green/blue, navy plaid with navy suede (which I thot was black when I got them), and camo/grey, so they’re all on the darker black/grey tones. I feel like I should get a pair to add some color or lighten it up. I think I’ll wait a bit and see what pops up. Sinyard was saying there’s lots coming up so I’m kinda excited to see what will show up on the websites next! There’s a yellow glitter one I saw on the GG site that might be fun if I decide on something really colorful.
I have not ordered from matches before but it looks like sinyard has ordered from a number of sites so that’s good to know.
 
All this talk made me wear these today for grocery shopping lol

Oooh shiny ... they look cool. Are they mid or high tops? Do you find they go with lots? I like pewter but I don’t think that’s a color I’ll see soon. It’s usually gold or silver. I need to just see what’s out there and not be in purchase mode so I can find the pair I’ll like for spring/summer.
 
The hearts one is super cute! Almost bought that last week when NM had its 125 off of 500. But ended up getting the hand painted floral ones because I don't know, was feeling spring-y?

Have you worn the hand painted flower ones? How are they? I saw those and was tempted but it’s a little too feminine for me, I’m more the camo person, LOL, but I am intrigued by those. I can’t do the hearts either, sigh, but when I see other ppl wearing them I think they look awesome.

These are superstar so just the “normal” top. I never had issues pairing these with, except maybe for brown - I wear my other pairs instead. I agree, better to look around and wait. I found that it’s so easy to want to buy it in all available colours, yet so hard not to. I don’t like returning stuff I ordered, online especially, so I really try to be discriminating before hitting that puchase button.

I meant all of my leopard animal “hair” ones! Lol I’ll attach a pic of some of them. IMG_4279.jpg

I've seen a pink suede SS with blue star patch, grey toe and I think white heel tab. In my opinion they're still neutral, and quite spring appropriate. Think they're cute! But if you're not really into feminine colors... I actually don't even think they are too girly, but only you can say! Saw them on Matches for sure. They would be more wearable than the yellow glitter ones though, haha.

I haven't worn them out because I live in Minneapolis, and Spring is taking its sweet time to get here. In fact, it's snowing out today. So, not sneakers weather, especially not pristine white and hand painted ones.
They are all leather, though, so I imagine not as comfortable as your suede ones. I have finicky feet, no shoes are ever super comfortable on me (besides, well, ugly UGGs), so these are good, but I believe I'll have to break them in a bit before they get truly comfy.
The floral pattern is absolutely lovely! I don't think I'm a girly girl, but I can totally pull these off just fine, just like I wear combat boots or leopard sneakers. The only thing I don't like to do when it comes to shoes is super bright colors, go figure.

I'll post a picture of the floral one later for you!!
