I'm hoping to gain some insight/advice from a few PFers who have owned multiple pairs of TB Revas over the last 2+ years.*
Two years ago, I purchased two pairs of revas. One pair black/gold, one pair brown/gold. These have been my everyday go-to shoes since then. The black pair was worn at least 5 times to every 1 time the brown pair was worn. I wore these revas almost everyday for over 1 year.*
After I noticed how badly the black revas had worn after 8 months or so, I also purchased a pair of black/silver Romys. These had a softer rubber sole and were completely worn to the leather after 6 months of use per pair. I preferred the romys over the revas so i repurchased and again only lasted 6 months *Romys were discontinued so I went back to wearing my revas. *
Breakdown:
Black revas worn ~ 400 times (leather severely worn, sole severely worn)
Brown revas worn ~ 50 times (leather slightly worn, rubber heel moderate wear)
Black romys pair 1 worn ~ 150 times (leather was in great shape, heel completely gone)
Black romys pair 2 worn ~ 150 times*(leather was in great shape, heel completely gone)
I recently decided it was time to replace my black revas so I ordered the black/silver pair from nordstrom and I was very unhappy when I noticed that the leather seems to be of a noticeably lesser quality AND the rubber sole is now the same soft rubber as the Romys I had.*
Have any long time revas wearers noticed a significant change in quality over the years.*
I would like to contact Tory burch customer service to express my concerns about the change in quality but was hoping to hear from others first.*
