Give them the .com item number and they'll be able to tell you if they're available anywhere. If so, they will ship them to you for $10. Tell them your maddening story and they'll probably waive the shipping fee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252721 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 04:04:18 +0000 marianna 252721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Were the thigh highs in the Hammer box? That's so bizarre...</p> <p>How can I help? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252706 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 03:19:18 +0000 Maya 252706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's still too $$$ for me, Rae. Even at a discount, they're more than what I paid for my SW boots. I need them to come down at least another $60. I'm going to ask Nordstrom about the LC's. Can't hurt. It's their fault, and it IS Nordstrom. You never know.</p> <p>Maybe Marianna will chime in. It's nice to have an insider!</p> <p>Angie, have you seen any Report boots that you think fit the bill? I don't see a single pair that would work. All of them have either ultra high spike heels, are too big in the shaft, or both.</p> <p>The Via Spigas were only $179. I wish I had bought them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252700 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:53:15 +0000 rae 252700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(6pm is operated by Zappos, in case you're worried about the whole discount merchant thing). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252698 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:49:34 +0000 rae 252698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Discounted LCs, one left in 6.5.</p> <p><a href="http://www.6pm.com/product/7430584/color/106" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com/product/7430584/color/106</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252694 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:45:44 +0000 Angie 252694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The LC's are beautiful. I have seen them. KILLER in fact. Maya, you have champagne taste with a beer budget :(</p> <p>I was going to suggest Report boots. I was in their store today (Seattle based company) and you had luck with their ballet flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252684 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:33:11 +0000 Steph 252684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like those LCs! My guess is they won't give them to you at the same price, but I absolutely think you should ask. It's not an unreasonable request. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252679 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:22:46 +0000 Maya 252679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still no luck Rae, but thanks for trying. I need a 6.5.</p> <p>So, I really love <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3115666?origin=category&amp;resultback=1492">these boots</a>. They are similar in both fit and style to the Hammers, and they are waterproof. LC is usually a good brand for me too. </p> <p>I wonder if they would give them to me for the same price since it was their mistake...? I lost out on 3 different boots because of this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252675 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 02:18:25 +0000 rae 252675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A couple more sizes lurking on ebay...</p> <p><a href="http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&#038;_npmv=3&#038;_trksid=m570&#038;_nkw=stuart+hammer" rel="nofollow">http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R4.....art+hammer</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252665 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:35:58 +0000 Megan 252665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:(</p> <p>maybe since there is still stock not all is lost! I will cross my fingers that they can find the right size for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252664 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:34:38 +0000 Maya 252664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alas Megan, my size is not among those available. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252661 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:33:31 +0000 Megan 252661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya........not sure what size you need but:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3087997?origin=category&#038;resultback=2508" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....tback=2508</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252660 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:28:41 +0000 April 252660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohhhhh, that's maddening. </p> <p>At the risk of adding to your extreme frustration... there were Hammers at the Rack last week. So sorry -- I didn't realize you were looking. But maybe that means Nordstrom can get ahold of them somehow? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252657 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:22:23 +0000 Maya 252657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, they sent me thigh high boots...though on my short frame they are more like crotch high. I tried them on just for giggles and I did indeed giggle. Then I scowled.</p> <p>I almost got these and probably would have if they didn't offer to order the SW's for me:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3054134?Category=&#038;Search=True&#038;SearchType=keywordsearch&#038;keyword=over+the+knee&#038;origin=searchresults" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....rchresults</a></p> <p>Now they are long gone. The pair I tried were literally the last pair of those boots in the entire country.</p> <p>I'll try calling tomorrow, but I don't hold out much hope. To be honest this whole process has been so maddening all the enthusiasm I had built up for this look has been utterly deflated. </p> <p>Angie, I went to DSW recently because I have $20 rewards certificate, but none of the styles I liked would have fit me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252653 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:15:44 +0000 Megan 252653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a major bummer Maya </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252652 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:15:22 +0000 taylor 252652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What the heck!!! They sent the wrong boot? Call them immediately, Just because they are sold out on line doesn't mean they are unattainable!!!<br /> Don't give up just yet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252651 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:14:25 +0000 Angie 252651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And yet there are SO MANY in stores. You should go back to DSW when the mood hits. </p> <p>Sorry to hear about the SW boot fiasco </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/major-boot-disappointment#post-252649 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 01:11:13 +0000 Maya 252649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After waiting over a week, I finally got my Stuart Weitzman boots in the mail in a half size smaller.</p> <p>Only they were not the right boots!</p> <p>They were <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3053392?cm_cat=datafeed&amp;cm_pla=shoes:women:boots&amp;cm_ite=stuart_weitzman_%27hilo%27_thigh_high_boot:270106&amp;cm_ven=Froogle&amp;mr:trackingCode=1F857024-369A-DE11-A7DF-002219319097&amp;mr:referralID=NA">these monstrosities</a>.</p> <p>I'm so utterly disappointed. Now not only are the Hammer boots out of stock, so are the other two styles I would have bought in their place :(</p> <p>I guess I just wasn't meant to have a pair of OTK boots. </p>
