I have a pair in lizard but it's not an SO. The underside of the strap where the regular and lizard leather meet is quite uncomfortable. The stitching or the way the leathers were connected is rough and hurts my feet that I can't use it for long walks or might need to use a bandaid. I'd say it's poorly designed in terms of comfort. It would have been better if the stitch and regular leather went all the way to the metal ring. I don't have regular leather chypres so I can't compare it.

Edit: You were apparently asking about orans. Haha. Anyway, posting it for those who are interested in lizard chypres. 😊
Thank you! Wow, I’m surprised they’re uncomfortable. I can only imagine how bad the oran version is… ugh!! beautiful shoes, though!

I have a pair of lizard orans (not SO) and they are more comfortable than I expected.

I would say I didn't need to break in the lizard orans. But what irks me is that it is slippery at the front where the lizard skin is (I think it's called the toe box?). Not sure if this will change over time with more wear.

My SA asked if I would be interested in exotic SO shoes. I would love to order a pair of Premier sandals in ombre lizard, but I have never seen/tried Premier sandals at a boutique. For those who own them or have tried them, how do they fit? I know everyone’s experience will be different but would love to hear anyway. I wear 7.5/37.5 including Orans. My concern with Premier sandals is the ankle strap. I usually get blisters where the strap hits on the back of my leg. I also am thinking about ombré lizard Chypre but not 100% sure if exotic and Chypre go together. Appreciate this community’s feedback. Thank you!
Finally found them and remembered you! On the USA site if you're from there you can order from the website!

You are the sweetest for being on the lookout for this item and thinking of me!! Thank you for posting this! I don’t own Chypre yet, super excited!
Hahaha, your posts are so memorable! How could I forget about the only person looking for a pair of gorgeousssss ombre lizard chypres! Let me know if you do end up getting these! I'll be excited to see pics and hear your review! :)
 
Yall wanna hear something crazy. I was visiting my SA this week and they had a pair of Himalayan oasis sandals on display and I asked my SA, how??? Evidently when they arrived they couldn’t figure out who the belonged to and nobody has come forward to claim them so they are available for purchase :shocked:
omg. the poor girl that put half down for those and is still waiting for her order to arrive...... :shocked:

When I went to pick up one of my SO orders, they couldn’t find them 👀 and then they don’t know what happened to my 1st so order (with a deposit). They will look into it. Really crazy and disorganized - and not on the SA side but on how the process works. I could see how they could not know who the shoes belong to. Very messy process.

Now that you guys mention it, my SA did mention to me there was an unclaimed pair of the SO shoes in the back. I assumed the original owner didn’t want them, but after reading here, it sounds like there’s a pattern here…
 
Does anyone know what the current offer of colors are for the Chypre in exotics? Or a have a picture? My SA just told me the color I ordered is no longer in production so I’m waiting on the new list of colors… thanks!! I’m really hoping for a light beige croc pair 🤞

I don’t have a picture but the light beige was not available when I ordered earlier this month. I don’t remember all but I do remember There was a raspberry pink color (can’t remember the exact H names). In matte Croc some of the colors I remember are a light pink (gorgeous) and a coral orange shade. My SA said they can order Chypres in Croc from the site, though!! A pair of Rose Porcelaine in Croc is on the site right now (the color is more pink but close to a nude)
