Hey everyone! I'm hoping to get some feedback from any Oran owners out there...

I purchased a pair of Oran sandals last week (my first Hermes shoes), and after wearing them once very briefly, I noticed a pretty significant crack in the first layer of the sole of the right shoe (see attached photos). This didn't look right to me, so I wrote to Hermes customer service about the issue and received this response:

"The sole of the Oran sandal is made with several layers of leather and on the inside of each sole, there is a gap where the leather comes together. What you are seeing is not a defect but part of the construction of the shoe. Unfortunately, as the shoes have been worn, we are unable to accept them back for refund or exchange, as all items must be in brand new condition to be eligible. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us."

Their response seemed very dismissive to me, so I wanted to see if any of your Orans have had a similar issue. Is it common to have this type of "gap" in the sole? If so, I'm somewhat disappointed with the quality... :tdown:

Thanks in advance for the input!

Oh the horror.... came home today to find my sweet puppy decided to use one of my Oran sandals as a chew toy. Anyone know if Hermes ever does repairs on these sort of things? Damage is only to top. Maybe it's just me not being able to let go.....

Oh no! I would bring it to a local professional cobbler, who will be able to sew up the chewed up part and keep it from fraying. However, that edge will look shorter and a bit uneven. I'm not sure what Hermes can do about it other than consult their shoe service which might mean you'll have to part with your sandals for some months. Best of luck!
