Tried some low-heel tributes on today... and I'm in love. Are they ever included in the F&F sales at Bloomies or Saks? I can't even find them on the Bloomies website, and the ones that I want are "sold out" at Saks. What other stores would sell them at a discount?
 
Finally got to try the Tribs on in a store to figure out my size then ordered these from ******. I LOVE them and want more! These are the 4" version in nude (powder) patent.
These are gorgeous and such a versatile color, Accessorized! :smile1:

I haven't been able to try Tributes on yet. Do they run TTS or do they run small, like Valentino? I'm a size 9 (with wide feet) but in Valentino kitten heel rockstuds, I'm a size 39.5. I'd like to try the same 4" tributes, but don't know if I should get a 39 or 39.5?

Hi Princess, better try them out in a store near you. They're narrow in front.
 
So, I just purchased my first pair of YSL Tribute sandals - EEEK!!!!! And I cannot wait for them to arrive!! I feel a little late to the game, but I have been admiring everyone's modelling shots (which are just beautiful, all of them) for so long now, I just couldn't help myself much longer. (Granted, I purchased consignment, to save some $...)

Now, I was wondering if I could get everyone's advice. Do you do anything special to protect the leather and the soles of your YSLs? I see some people cover the soles with rubber (?) padding, why do you do this and would you recommend it?

Thank you!!!

I add zip soles to mine because it helps when wearing them indoors. In my experience, when wearing them on floors that are not carpeted or outside where there is some grate, I tend to feel slightly slippery in these heels without a rubber sole. I do the same with my shoes from Lanvin. Highly recommend as I feel like it also extends the life of the shoe.

Hi Princess! Well I wear a 10 or occasionally a 10.5US and I can wear the Tributes in either 40.5 or 41. I think a 40 would be too small for me so I guess sizing up a half size is ideal. In your case the 39.5 would probably be perfect. Being open sandals there is a little leeway with size though :-)

Thank you for your input, Accessorized! I've decided to wait until I can try these on in person, as I understand they run a little narrow. But I will start by trying on the 39.5. :smile1:
 
Just out of curiosity, how tall are you ladies who opt for the higher heel? I'm 5'7" and I feel like the higher heels would make me look like an amazonian so I'm leaning towards the shorter heel but they're just not as sexy as the higher heel :( ugh !

I'm 5'8 and I have a few pairs in both heel hights, and I really don't mind how tall they make me. The lower ones are more comfy though :)
 
How much do they stretch? I'm between 38 and 38.5. I normally wear 7.5-8 in Stuart Weitzman and Ferragamo. I think I fit better in the 38.5, but I'm worried they'll stretch too much.

I'm a tad under 5'8" and always go with the higher heal. Who doesn't want to be tall? Go for it!
