Sigh. And since I'm back home now, it's a bit hard to try them out with some extra thick insoles. Maybe they were just not meant to be.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-902752 Tue, 09 Apr 2013 12:29:15 +0000 Jjsloane 902752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sundance carries Old Gringo, but not that style at the moment (a few similar)&nbsp;<br /><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sundancecatalog.com/search/CelebrosSearch.do?keyword=old%20gringo">http://www.sundancecatalog.com.....d%20gringo</a><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-902745 Tue, 09 Apr 2013 12:22:04 +0000 Mochi 902745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bummer, was just at the FB page and saw their response. But at least you HAVE a response now. So...reconsider the 8.5's with some inserts? Move on?<br /><br />I have to say that this company makes boots that are over- the-top gorgeous! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901502 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 19:27:28 +0000 Suz 901502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Janet, I have no help to offer but all I can say is no wonder you are in love. Those are gorgeous!!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901488 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 18:59:24 +0000 Anonymous 901488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Good luck! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901436 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 17:05:07 +0000 Kyle 901436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ That's a stunning boot, Janet. Good luck on your search.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901423 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 16:40:45 +0000 Mochi 901423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This boot is nowhere as cool as Janet's pick. It does share the same conceptual design of nail head studs:<br /><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.oldgringodirect.com/motto-stud-black.html">http://www.oldgringodirect.com.....black.html</a><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901421 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 16:38:41 +0000 Mochi 901421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Also, this pops up at the top of the search as a google ad, and they do seem to have a large selection:<br /><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.allensboots.com/">http://www.allensboots.com/</a><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901420 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 16:35:59 +0000 rae 901420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I wonder if you could find&nbsp;plain boots...or even ones with partial studding <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.oldgringoboots.com/Boots_Details_MensRockstar.aspx?bootid=275">like this</a>.&nbsp;I've seen lots of DIYs studding combat boots. Anyway, not saying you should give up, thinking outside the box just in case. Sending good thoughts! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901407 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 16:13:10 +0000 Janet 901407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Rae, I think it would be tough to stretch the 7.5s enough to make them work. They are so expensive I can't see risking the purchase and ending up with painful boots. I think the 8.5s would have been more likely.&nbsp;<br /><br />Thanks, Ariadne! I am a woman on a mission. I may not find them, but I have to try at least.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901404 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 16:04:15 +0000 rae 901404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hm, I wasn't able to find anything using my usual ways... if you aren't able to locate them, would it be out of the question to have the toes of the 7.5 stretched out? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901400 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 15:59:18 +0000 Ariadne 901400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Holy cannoli, Janet, those boots are amazing and SO you. &nbsp;Sending you boot-finding vibes! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901384 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 15:36:35 +0000 Janet 901384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, the OG Facebook page is a great idea. I'm off to find it!<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901382 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 15:33:56 +0000 Mochi 901382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Janet, contacting the company is a good start, but I would go onto their Facebook page STAT, provide pics and explain the situation. It is much more real-time and current, and if not OG themselves, then one of their fans may be able to help you.&nbsp;<br /><br />I contacted Nordstrom about an unnamed&nbsp;pair of&nbsp;boots a model was wearing&nbsp;in their catalogue. They never got back to me...but Zap actually ID'd them for me as Miz Mooz. Never underestimate the hive mind! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901380 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 15:29:20 +0000 Janet 901380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, kkards and Mochi!&nbsp;<br /><br />I did fill out their online contact form, and I let them know I have pictures, even though no model name, so I'm hoping to hear back from them.&nbsp;<br /><br />It figures I would fall in love with the most obscure item they produce. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901378 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 15:24:30 +0000 kkards 901378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Janet<br />have you tried emailing old gringo directly? &nbsp;I looked at their site, and it looked like one of theses company's who would be glad to hear from you and would really do what they could to help.&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901363 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 15:05:03 +0000 Janet 901363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The SA was quite chatty and pretty helpful otherwise, actually, so it's a bit of a mystery about the model name.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901359 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 14:58:08 +0000 Mochi 901359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oof, I'm good at searching things out but without that essential info, I wouldn't waste my time. (I'd call the SF boutique up and try to find out...I can't believe they don't have it in their system, and suspect the woman didn't want to deal with you?)&nbsp;I went on the OG site and there are a handful of boutiques in the area&nbsp;that carry this brand, so if you have a boot ID&nbsp;for me I could find out if they carry them. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901356 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 14:44:20 +0000 Janet 901356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I don't know it, unfortunately. I asked the SA and she didn't have it. I wondered if this was a special limited item or something -- it seems like so many of their models are available everywhere!&nbsp;<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901354 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 14:31:01 +0000 Mochi 901354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Janet, could you provide the model name? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iso-old-gringo-studded-boots#post-901337 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 14:09:00 +0000 Janet 901337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ When I was in Santa Fe, I tried on and fell in love with these studded cowboy boots. They are so me! I love how the stud detail is not so overtly "western" but a bit more rock'n'roll.&nbsp;<br /><br />Sadly, the store only had them in a 7.5 and an 8.5, which were too small and too big, respectively. I even went back with thick hiking socks to see if I could make the 8.5's work, but no luck. They said they had no way to order an 8 for me.&nbsp;<br /><br />Usually, that's the end of the story for me, and I get over it,&nbsp;but I keep coming back to these boots even since I've come home. (It helps that hubs is a big fan of them as well.) I&nbsp;have been looking online and can't find these babies ANYWHERE -- even the Old Gringo website. I have filled out their contact form on their site to see if they can help me locate these.<br /><br />In the meantime, I thought I'd put it out there in case any YLFers are near a retailer that carries Old Gringo (they're few and far between out here on the east coast). If you see these anywhere in an 8, I would love to know!
