Got an email from NAP customer service about some IM boots they will be carrying.

"(They) are also sueded front in antracite grey with burgandy detail."

Not sure which boot they could be referring to! They tried to attach an image but it wouldn't load. They tried several times but no luck. I was really hoping to see that image!!

That's too bad! Wondering what those boots are now. I saw this in People Style's pick and the Memphis boots are priced at $1155 at the IM store. Hope NAP will stick to their pricing. :cool:

Me too! That's kinda high. LVR was pre-selling them (customs duty and shipping included) for $980 CDN. Hmmm....

Altho, they look kinda different in that People pic. I just want to see them IRL already!! :pout: Still no news from MyTheresa about availability date. Isn't it weird how we've now seen 3 online images for them and in each they look slightly different?? I would think, tho, that IM would supply the image to People? My plan was to choose between the Jacobs and the Memphis - hard to do without seeing them both! :thinkin:
 
Hi ladies, I'm planning to purchase my first IM Jenny. I'm deciding between Gris, black suede or the black leather jenny. my wardrobe colors are mostly white, black, blue. I would like one that I can pair with leggings and jeans. Also, seems like only la garconne cArries the gris and apparently they are quite a hassle to do a return. any suggestions?

I've ordered multiple items from La Garconne and also have returned items back. I didn't find the return process difficult whatsoever and customer service is always friendly.

I actually ordered a pair of the black suede IM Jenny boots but returned them to purchase the all black leather.

Personally, I like the leather better than suede. Don't get me wrong, the suede ones were nice, and I had a hard time choosing to between the two, but I do like the fact that the leather has a dark sole, whereas the suede has the light colored sole, which combined with the suede gave it a more "western" boot vibe.

I did however, find the suede material to be a bit more soft and the leather is kind of stiff. I am hoping the will become more supple overtime.

How do you find the black leather? Since I wear alot of black, do you think black shoes on black clothes will be less ideal than a Gris shoes on black clothes?
Do you have a mod pic to share?

I think the Gris is a beautiful color, I think it's the most interesting color. I have have so many boots in brown, tan, gray and didn't have a plain flat black boot. I figured I'd probably get "bang for my buck" if I bought a shoe I could pair with everything. In that case if you already wear a lot of black the Gris would be a color to get. But if you wear a lot of grey/green you might want to stay away from the Gris to avoid looking too match-y.

P.S. no pics yet.
 
Got these boots a couple weeks ago, haven't worn them yet since it's still pretty hot where I live. The dye on mine rub off as well, my hands are left with black marks and feel grimy after handling the boots. I plan on keeping mine...I'm sure the dye will stop rubbing off eventually. But I am curious to know why the dye rubs off. I own a lot of high quality boots and have never experienced this before.

So hard to make a decision...
 
Yikes! I just clicked on this thread! These are the boots I was going to order this week... was deciding between the leather and suede and really like the look of the leather ones...

Do you think you will keep them Julieose?

Is it really really bad like you can't even wear them with gray skinnies without black marks on your pants?

Hey there! I haven't worn them yet, I am too afraid. I don't want to return them because I LOVE THEM, and I prefer leather to suede because I feel like the leather will last forever. I am going to take them to a cobbler to see if he can stop the dye from coming off. Maybe he can treat them? This is ridiculous really.

I don't know either.....what about taking them to a cobbler to treat them maybe?
 
After sleeping over it through the night, I decided to go with the Gris and i have placed an order with la garconne! I figured that I can always get a black one later on and it should be easier to locate one than the Gris. Yay yay! I can't wait to get my hands on the beauty, 2more days! (Yes.... I chose a two days shipping options.) lol

:) : i really like the Gris...and they look almost black so it's a good choice. As for me, I'm returning the black suede as I want the leather Jennys. I made a mistake ordering the suede thinking they're the leather ones. Urgh..but the look really cute overall.

Hi Jelly! Did you purchased them from La garconne? They seem to take a long time processing my order! Kind of regret purchasing from them. Should have gone with NAP. Argh~

I got mine from Matches-real fast delivery but returning is a costly 50 bucks. Yup should have gone with NAP too. :( I'll be ordering the leather ones from NAP soon. I don't understand why LaGarconne has such slow service. Well worth the wait tho. :cool: Pls post when you get those in! ;)

Just to chime in - yes, La garconne is sloooowwww to process orders They do indeed eventually get processed and you'll receive your item. Worth the wait!

I have never returned anything through them - yet. I bought two pairs of black Dickers because I didn't know what size I needed and missed my return window. ;( Ugh! Ebay here I come! Oh well!
