Hi ladies, Does anyone know where I could find a pair of IM Woody Sandals in size 36? I know it's a crazy ask but I figured they may be somewhere...

Thanks mazzapan!!!!

I just bought the taupe Jenny's and yes! it did reduce to 275 pounds! I am so happy! I already purchased anthracite dickers from NAP and they ended up costing 380 pounds (with shipping). Now I am thinking about getting the camel too.... But I am not sure how to style that colour :confused1::confused1:

No worries! It is a ridiculous saving really, they are almost free ;)
Do you think camel will be difficult to style? I hope not. Should look good with dark colours especially black. http://www.lagarconne.com/store/item.htm?itemid=12895&sid=8&pid=#

LoL!! How can I say no to that kind of logic?? I went back to Matches and ordered the Camel Dicker. Shoes are crazily*overpriced in Australia and you get poor selection and poor quality too! So $400 AUD for the Dickers seemed quite reasonable to me!*Also, thanks for the link to the model, I agree, they look fab with black clothing. I wear a lot of dresses so I'm hoping it will look good with them.
*
*Funny thing is that 2 weeks ago I had no clue what a Dicker boot was and after lurking in this thread day and night I've purchased 2 pairs in 3 days (and*a jenny too!). I'd like some advice on how to care for them (because I know I'm going to love them and want to keep them for a long long time!). So I would appreciate some help with these questions:
*
1. What water/stain protector do you ladies use? I've read about Meltonian and Appleguard - which is more popular among the tpfers?
*
2. Are these boots durable enough for regular wear or best for occasional wear? I'm worried the suede will show wear/staind easily and start to look scruffy.
*
3. Any special care tips for making them look good for longer?
*
I really want to thank all the generous tpfers who upload photos, answer questions and share stock availabiity/prices. Without you, I would never get these awesome boots! And to return the favour, once they get delivered I will post lots of modelling pics!!

Returning shoes to lagarconne was a killer, will never order from a company again that do not offer free returns unless I am sure about what I am ordering.

TOTALLY agree with you, not to mention the fact that I returned my boots over three weeks ago -- the day after I received them -- and they STILL have not credited my account.

Just sent my camel dicker (size 38) back, very dissapointed by the mustard colour. Why do they call them camel when they are more mustard - e.i., more yellow than brown. Wish the dickers were made by similiar colours to Jennys, so much more life in those.

I really think that IM failed this time with the dickers colours.
Taupe - too brown (why did they not reduce the green and kept the beige from previous season's taupe)
Camel - too yellow (why did they not keep the miel that was a sell out)
Kaki - too green
Antracite - to dark, nicer if it would have been more grey as previous seasons antracite

Either way they seem to sell out gradually anyway, I quess the hype for these boots are still there but compared to last season when the boots sold out in one day every where it is a big difference.

In my opinion these season's colour are more autumn colurs and not spring. Hopefully next seasons will bring in some more lighter colours (even though it is not likely), hopefully I do not wear my taupe out before then.

Returning shoes to lagarconne was a killer, will never order from a company again that do not offer free returns unless I am sure about what I am ordering.

I agree. I didn't like any of the colours. I hope next season will be better.
