Ladies,
I love the Hermes jumping boots when they are brand new but I feel like they look kinda cheap after a while, especially when they are in swift.
Do you know how we can prevent them to look this way?

Happy to enable
Hope you get yours soon.
I finally found this thread again!! Couldn't remember the name of this thread.
Tamarind, here is my Rouge H jumping boots!! I tried on a pair back in November after a long search, in my normal size, it was too tight around the calves!! Was soooo disappointed and so was my sweet SA who found them for me. Anyway, back to square one until I saw them in Nice two weekends ago!!
Can't stop staring and wearing it!
Any ideas on how to break into the boots? Mine fit alright around the calves but I find the ankle area so rigid that it's hard to walk (especially up or down some steps or stairs). My heels kinda slide up and down as well when I walk, but I don't think it's "loose" (as in I need half a size down). Please help?
Your explanation seems to match my experience. I suggest you wear socks thick enough to protect your ankles for as many wearings as needed to break them in. Even though the leather will remain pretty stiff, unless you are super sensitive, you will get used to them! BTW, Ive only worn mine about 6-8 times so far. I didnt have the option to go down half a size (I bought the last pair of SO black in my boutique), so my feet do slosh around a bit, but again, cashmere socks help that! Dont they look so fab on?!! Enjoy them!!!
I very much struggled with this. I'd say it took me a good 2 seasons to wear them in. I just took them on a weekend in Vienna and they were fine so I think I've won! I went to a good cobbler and they gave me a leather softening spray: I used this on the inside heel each time I wore them.

Beautiful boots! So glad you got yours. I have been wearing mine a lot this year (the fourth year) and they really get better and more comfortable each year.

Those RH ones are absolutely stunning! They look great on you!
thank you xiangxiang
i love them! Thank you Tamarind. That's good to know although they are quite comfortable to wear already, it just takes me a while to take them off!!

Stunning colour and they look fab on you!!! Now I really don't know which colour to buy first..
thank you MaggyH!!
rouge H is a few seasons ago so not easy to find, unless H does it again this FW season. what other colour are you thinking of getting?thank you MaggyH!!
I was debating whether to get black or ebene, I have tried the etoupe ones on, but somehow they didn't look right on me. I will have to ask my SA to enquire about RH availability first since they are so hard to get! Really love them on you, you lucky girl!
I didn't really like the Etoupe on me either although the leather is a lot softer! And I already have other boots in black and brown. I think the smaller European cities will definitely have one or two pairs of Rouge H left, I saw them in Florence and Milan in Sept last year but they were the bigger sizes 40/41. Hope you find them. Rouge H a a fabulous colour!! and thanks again MaggyH!
