Sorry about that. Incredible how out of the blue, someone just pops up and grabs the item in the last second, after a few days of "nothing"....

Thanks. But today I'm super happy because I was able yo buy the shoes I've been wanting for so long: the Louboutin Bianca in nude.
If anyone is interested, there are new availabilities on the European site! :smile1:

Hi everyone!
I went to Paris yesterday. Pay a visit to the lovely Marant boutique in Rue Saintonge.
And they just receive the new season sneaker in black python and blue!! Also some tie dye left in 36 and 37. Quick Quick!

So I've always found these sneakers ugly (sorry!) but after seeing them so much they kinda grew on me so now I want a pair. I'd like the all black version. What's the retail price and how's the sizing? I am a size 37 in the dicker boots, would I be a 37 in the sneakers? Lastly, are they really impossible to get???
Thanks ladies!!!

Retail for 2 years has been $ 760 US but they disappear in minutes and when they show up on Ebay, they will run from $ 999 to $ 1450... crazy huh?

In paris, for 2012 fall collection, the price dropped a bit - around 430 euros or something! But still hard to get as they disappear fast!

Check espejto italy online - i still saw some sizes left but not black though!
Good luck!
Im addicted to marant trainers!!!;)

Unbelievable! Those are copycats!
I have a pair of Ash Bowie, and I like them a lot, it would be interesting to make a comparison between the two once I receive my Bekett

Id love to see a side by side. Im thinking about the Ash Bowie. They have only one velcro and are lace up (from memory) so different in that regard to the Bekett - but I think thats a good thing.

Id also MUST know which ones you prefer (after youve worn the IM's for a bit and a bit of the lust factor has worn off)

I have enclosed some photos. I prefer the Bowie over the Bekett. The Bekett are cool but definitely too heavy (and look too bulky around the ankle in the rear view but that's just my opinion,) which makes them less comfortable while the Bowie are so lightweight. Plus the hidden wedge of the Bekett is not so hidden because everybody know this style and even if you don't you'll realize that there's something wrong if you look at them for 10 seconds. I prefer the Bekett in the lateral view.

I like that the Ash are not a direct copy but influenced by IM. If they were a closer copy, Id feel strange wearing them - like a fraud.

I agree about the IM looking better from a lateral view.
