I saw that on Saks.com! I was wondering what the eff!? I'm not sure if they were BAs but I think it happened for a few pairs. I'm waiting for second stage of the sales although I bought a Tribute pair pre-sale and haven't gone to pick it up yet!

The listing for the Straw Patent shoe online is gone (must have sold out) but the second pic is the same texture - the other color they showed was red, and you could see the texture really well. When you changed the color choice to Blanco Cream, they showed the 2nd pic (the Light Pink wasn't available online)

I don't think Saks online provides the most accurate info or pics - I Pre-saled a pair of Brian Atwood shoes that were listed on the website twice. Same shoe, same description, same pic, but different prices - the only other difference was the name (one was "Velukid" the other "Rubens") I thought maybe it was type of leather used, but my SA said the two shoes are identical in every way except the heel height - one was 4 inches, the other was 5, yet the two descriptions on Saks.com were identical and said 5 in.

I don't know what color I'm going to end up with or if I'll like them - that's the one bad thing about Pre-sales over the phone. Guess I'll see when they get here! If you like those last ones, you should call and see if they're still available - don't know what size you are, but she just canceled my 40s this morning, so I know those were still available.

This thread made me really want to get the tribute.. . I tried them in the shop today and they are gorgeous
But i feel like a giantess in them! (the tall version)
I'm 5ft7
How tall are u girls. Mind you the average height where I live is like 5ft1 and the guys aren't that tall either -_-"
In normal heels I'm already taller than most ppl on the street.
Any advice?

Thanks : )

I know how you feel ashton! I'm 5'9" or 5'10" depending on the day, but I've found a lot of guys like a tall girl! As long as you're comfortable, get them!

I am an average 5'6" and I LOVE to be taller than most people around me! :cool: That's why I love wearing heels and platforms, it makes me feel sorta empowered... :angel:

Do you know which pair is the shorter version? I like those BA, but worried about which ones to purchase!

The less expensive ones are supposedly 4 inches - the Velukids

The Rubens are 5 inches, and more expensive
http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446500394&R=441974589311&P_name=Brian+Atwood&N=1553+4294954305&bmUID=juAVT1E

This was according to my SA. I bought the Velukids, so we'll see when they get here. My SA said they're the exact same shoe except for the heel height, but there's no difference online other than the name & price, so I'm not one hundred percent sure. I'm hoping she's correct and it's the heel height, cuz even with a platform, 5 inches is pretty high!

None of the textured leather Tributes were "officially" described as Nude - that was the problem. When Jonathan's list was shared in the D&S forum, they were described as the Pearlized Textured Nude, but when I called she said there was no Nude, but there was a Light Pink (which I originally ordered) that she described as a Flesh color. There was also Blanco Cream which looked more white on the website. After she sent me pics of the Pink I changed my color to the Blanco Cream becuz she said they're not as white as they look online.

These are the pics I was going by - the first one is the pic provided in the D&S forum, the second is the Blanco Cream from the website & the last one is the Light Pink my SA sent me. I love the color of the first ones, but I have a feeling the lighting makes the color look inaccurate, and I don't know if either one (light pink or Blanca cream) is the color I want.

They only had them in the higher heel in my size.
