Ah, my very first pair of YSLs are Tribute! Burgundy patent leather. I'll post photo later. They're so easy to walk in. I danced at a wedding for hours with no issue. Used protect my pumps on the bottom so I didn't scratch off the paint and mess up the bottoms. Worked like a charm. Pictures later!

What is protect my pump?

Thanks!
 
Okay ladies, I tried on my very first pair of Tributes this weekend and now I want a pair! I believe that the box said Tribute 105 and they were a brown color (retail was $875 I believe). There seemed to be a tiny bit of space at the end of the toes, but the overall fit was good. I'm wondering if I should try sizing down a 1/2 size, but my concern is that then the toe box area will feel too tight. Any sizing suggestions (I am a TTS 35, which is what I wear in most CLs)? Any good places to look for sales, discounts, etc? I found a cute bronze-colored pair on EBay in both 34.5 and 35 - thoughts?

You could probably do a 34.5. I'm normally a 35.5/36 in most brands, and I always go with a 35.5 in YSL, while I normally do a 36 in CLs. The toebox will stretch as you wear them if it's a little snug at first, so as long as you are good with the length a 34.5 should work.
 
So, without having much experience, is $585 a good price for a bronze pair of sandals (Tribute 105, I believe it's called)? Could someone educate me on what the numbers mean that are associated with the sandals - like the "105" (is it related to heel height)?

Tribute 105 is the lower heel version of the shoe--about a 4" heel. Tribute 140 is the more famous style and is about 5.5". Full price usually ranges from $795 ("basic" materials and styles) to $1195 and up, especially if you're dealing with boots. $585 definitely isn't a bad price! Hth

Side note.. After some googling, a lot of sites have the higher heel version mislabeled as the 105, when it's really 140. I've noticed that a lot.

You know I wondered about this! I'm a little worried because I just ordered a pair and the picture showed the higher heel but is labeled 105, now I'm worried... I get them tmrw so we will see I guess. I never even gave it a second thought until you mentioned it. I really hope it's the 140 I receive!

105 and 75 refers to the heel height. 105mm is is the higher heel tribute sandal, and 75mm is the lower heel style. (Not including the 35mm platform)

$585 is a good deal on a pair of Tributes, since the regular price for a leather or patent leather pair is in the range of 795-995. :)
 
They just came and they are perfection! I still cannot believe the price I paid, they were $476 then I called and got another $40 off because I had a coupon code that they wouldn't take online but when I called Customer service they accepted it, total $436 for these beauties!
