I also have had very bad luck with Tory Burch items and don't buy them anymore. I don't know why anyone buys the Reva flats. I wore my 4-5 times and then came close to throwing them out. They sit in my closet now.

Bought her sunglasses once - never again. The decal on the arm fell off after two wearings.

It is too bad so many people have had issues with Tory items. I have had really great luck with the footwear I have bought. Most of my flats are from Tory as they work really well for my narrow feet.

I have purchased 4 pairs of wedges, 2 pairs of driving loafers and around 10 pairs of flats over the last 4 years or so. I did have one pair of black Revas start coming off the sole at the front on the first wearing. Customer service was great and they were replaced without issue. Every other pair of shoes has been a workhorse and has held up really well.

I purchased two of the bow Eddies and wondered how well they would wear as the soles seem very thin, but I have been alternated the two pairs of shoes for the last six weeks or so and both pairs still look nearly new.

On the other hand, I haven't been blown away by the quality of most of the clothing and no longer even look at any garments.

I too have had good luck with Tory Burch shoes... I have had a pair of suede Revas for almost 2 years (bought them to go with a semi-formal dress because they matched a color in the dress exactly). I haven't exactly taken care of them, either, and they've held up marvelously. The only true sign of wear is on the toes (which is pretty unavoidable if you ask me) and on the heel, which worn down slightly on the very edge... and that happens to all my shoes sooner or later; I think it has to do with how I walk lol.

If they hadn't stretched out so much I would say they are perfect shoes. They're bright purple and I get compliments on them all the time. I also got a pair of classic black Revas for Christmas, and so far I have nothing but good things to say about them. They were packaged impeccably and smell like lovely leather, and while I haven't worn them out yet they seem to fit well and don't squeak or pull or anything when I walk.

I have attached a picture of the toes of my suede Revas to show you all what they look like after 2 years. :smile1: I think the type of suede they are is called "powder suede" which is a little sparkly. I wish you guys had better luck with TB! I really like the style of most all of her things... I'm not sure if I'd buy a bag, since the general consensus is that they're not that great, but I think I want a cardigan and a belt.

Bump!

I am thinking about buying the Elina boots as a christmas present for my sister, but am concerned about the quality. Does anyone have any experience with her boots, or the pebbled leather they use?

I got the Elina ballets flats for Christmas from my mom and love them! Of course, I can't speak to the quality of this pair but I will say that my other Tory Burch flats that I have had for a little over a year are holding up nicely. I honestly believe that many of the quality issues are related to the use. My daughter essentially destroyed her Tory Burch & Ugg flip-flops that I bought her last summer. The strap broke on the left TB flip-flop and I honestly don't know what happened to the Uggs but know that the entire middle part (that goes in between the toe) is broken. Do I think that either pair had quality issues? No... my daughter wore them everyday as if she didn't have other shoes to wear last summer. If you went ahead I bought the Elina boots for your sis for Christmas, I'm sure she loved them! :smile1:

I think overall Tory Burch bags are so fun and colorful!! It's hard to resist how adorable they are. Sadly, I was so head-over-heels for Tory Burch until I purchased a Saffiano leather side bag for work and the leather started to peel after 4 months of use!! I take very good care of my bags too (never set them in the floor, never throw them around, i.e..) Needless to say, my Tory Burch obsession has been curbed.

I think Tory Burch is really a hit or miss. I have the reva flats which held up fine (although super painful) but my caroline flats are just terrible. I had get them exchange the first time since they were so poorly made. You could actually see the glue underneath the logo. I still kept the exchanged pair because i really loved the nude color. The wallets and accessories on the other hand have held up perfectly fine. I'm really not sure how this brand got as popular as it did, but i still wouldn't pay full price for anything TB.

My flats didn't hold up well for me, and I have a hobo handbag w/ gold chains on the strap (not sure the name) and the opening is definitely wearing down greatly :-(. My zipper card hold didn't wear well either, maybe because its metallic? And my tortoise shell bangle has a crooked TB symbol and I'm afraid to straighten it because it may break.

I have three pairs of flip flops. The wedge pair broke. The one flat pair's design rubbed off onto my feet. But the other flat pair are wonderful, they are the oldest, so maybe quality of the flip flops went down.

I do love the look of TB things though!

i have more than 20 pairs of tory burch shoes, mostly the sally wedges. i find the 2 1/2 inches height is perfect for most occasions. :smile1: i have no complaints about the quality. :D in fact i wouldn't mind buying more, but i have a future to think of.

the bags and the rest of stuff she sells, i find a bit overpriced though. i mean, for what it is.

i have several wedges, the lesther of seasonal models like natalya scuffs very easily and smells like che,cal. regular line such as sally holds up better. patent leather wears like steel.

I have a pair of barely worn boots that have had the inside lining come apart making it very hard to wear them. My shoe repair guy could not fix without changing the outside of the boots so I've email TB to see if they will fix. Will update when they reply.

I just purchased my first Tory Burch bag! I was hesitant about buying it because I've read reviews that the leather color can rub off on you and that if the bag gets any water on it it will stain. I was wondering if anyone has had a problem like this? I wanted to wear my bag today but it was suppose to rain and I was nervous about it getting stained. Will leather protector or rain guard be a good idea? Anyone know a good leather protector?

what kind of bag did you buy? Saffiano leather on the Robinson line is the most durable for everyday wear but prone to scratches. The leather on the Amanda line is also nice and thick but lighter than saffiano leather. I have worn my leather TB bags in the rain and have not had any water issues and have not used any protectant. I've only had color rub off on white pants. You may experience denim transfer, though.

I'm not sure what line my bag is from. I got it at an Outlet store. It's a very soft leather. I didn't use it again today because it was snowing and for the amount of money I spent I don't want it to get ruined but I also don't want to not be able to use it every day. hmm.
