Tanya, I have two pairs of black and one pewter pair. I REALLY wanted the white but they were sold out. I travel a lot and walk in the city a lot. It’s the best walking shoe for when the weather is a little warmer. It also looks like a Chanel flat, so it won’t date for my personal style. If you come across any of these colours in a size 6,5, PLEASE give me a shout. I am happy to get more. They work with everything in my wardrobe. I thoroughly recommend at least duplicating them!

Ana, welcome to my world (and Maya’s world). I love shoes but do not enjoy shoe shopping anymore as it gets harder every year. However, I’d say that 90% of my clients have some form of foot issue so don’t feel alone. I have to say that there is a much better selection of comfortable and good looking shoes abroad. 50% of my footwear collection was bought else wear (and I don’t have a lot of footwear). America is unfortunately not the best place to purchase fab looking shoes for fussy feet. I cannot for the life of me understand what’s wrong with these footwear buyers.

Well Ana, my Spring footwear search will start in Feb when clients start to prep for Spring. Hopefully, I’ll have more solutions for everyone.

Dang, 6pm.com has the white ones in both 6 and 7, but not 6.5 Well, if I see them elsewhere I will let you know for sure. I wish I could find the black ones in 8 for duplication.

Thanks for trying, Tanya. I'll keep my eyes peeled for you too.

I'm in a hurry, but just wanted to say that DSW has the Me Too Swann flats (with cap toe though, are these different from the ones you guys are talking about??) in pewter (6.5 and 8), maroon (8) and black (6.5 and 8)

Thanks Inge, you are a sweetheart, and these are the shoes we are talking about.
I think Angie wants white in 6.5 and myself black in 8, but not in suede but leather.

Thanks for looking for us though!

Tanya, I was going to say, I've searched and the only ones I can find in an 8 are the suede. I figure they are better than nothing, and I was going to order one pair and see how I like them. If they are a good look, I will probably order more. I found a place online that sells the snake print in a size 8 if you are interested.

Thanks Ana, I have found the same thing myself. Let me know how you like the suede ones, I may have to do that at the end. I think I will pass on the snake one though.

Hm, I have the white Swanns in a 6.5. They are so comfortable in the toe area, where my feet hurt most, but they are just too big for me in the heel and I only wore them a couple of times as a result. I tried a million ways to make them stay on my foot but they are never going to work. They feel more like flipflops than shoes. I went down to a 6 and they fit better in length, but they are still too narrow to be 8 hour shoes. I even tried stretching them but the patent toe isn't as flexible as the rest of the shoe (stretching the 6's, not the 6.5's).

If you get desperate enough for used shoes, let me know Angie. I'd be perfectly happy parting with them because they will never fit me. I promise that even though my feet are ugly they are not gnarly or smelly, nor do I have any fungus or other gross problems. But I know wearing used shoes still skeeves some people out anyway. I hope you can find them new but the offer is on the table.

Wow, I'm so excited--I just found a bunch of Swanns on the Canadian Zappos. They don't show up when I look under the Me Too brand, but when I type Swann into the search box, they come up. I think I'm going to order at least two pairs. I'm thinking of the black ones and the black/white or the black/gold (I want the black/beige but they're not available in 7.5). What do you think of the black/houndstooth ones?

And do these fit true to size? I am a true wide 7.5/38 but can often wear an 8 (my Docs are 8/39), especially in flats. If I could wear an 8 I could get the black/beige.

ETA: On second thought, I may have to pass. Turns out none of the combos I love--black/black, pewter/black, and beige/black--are available in my size. One review said they stretch out a fair bit, though, which makes me tempted to try the beige/black in 7 and see if I can get away with it.

I have Swanns in snake print, and I am very tempted to order pewter. Has anyone ordered from DSW before? Ideally I would prefer black or white. If anyone finds them in size 8, I'd love to hear about it.

Brianna, if anything these flats run big and will stretch with wear. I don't think I would size up. Ideally I'd suggest getting the 7.5, but if that isn't available, can you order the 7 and the 8 and return whichever doesn't fit? I want to say go for the 7's since in my experience they were too big, but feet are so individual and the same shoes that feel gigantic on one person will feel tight on another.

I second Maya, the shoes stretch a lot. I'd go smaller if anything.

Thanks Inge! You're a honey. I'm going to nab another pewter pair.

Maya, that’s a brilliant offer and I'll definitely bear that in mind. I'm absolutely sure your feet are fungus free. Now, how does a mango yellow pleather sling tote grab you as a swap?

I haven’t been too bothered with this style stretching. They’ve stretched out a bit but the shoe absolutely stays on my feet. Believe me, they would NOT be in my wardrobe if they malfunctioned in any way.

Angie, you don't have to give me anything in return. I'm not getting any use out of them anyway and I feel silly having two pairs of the same shoes in my closet (one of which I don't even wear)! If you're not getting any use out of the tote, I'll certainly take it off your hands, but you are under no obligation to make it a symmetrical swap.

First let's see if they fit you properly, just in case I might have stretched them too much with my wide feet. I'll bring them to me at the YLF convention I'll also have to see how the tote lies on me. Slings can do funny things to a bit chest!

You're welcome Angie. I'm glad you could get another pair in pewter, and if you swap with Maya, white is settled then too. Now we only need to find you another pair in black.
(Not much luck - yet - with the croco Stuart Weitzman boots unfortunately. And oh boy, they sure are gorgeous!!)

To sum it up:
Tanya: you want another pair in black (leather), size 8?
Marianne: you'd like either black or white in size 8?
Ana: you're looking for black ones in a size 8.5?
Shiny: I know you'd love the Nini's in silver in a size 6.5 right? (I haven't come across those yet).

Ooh, thank you Inge! Actually, I'd love to find a size 8 Me Too, in black nappa/patent, and also the black and white version. I'd take either of those. If you could only find 8.5, I'd look at those as well. Thank you so much!

Have you received your Doc Martens yet?

Ana and Marianne, 6pm has white ones in 8.5:

It will only let me buy 7.5 (sad face).

Yes, I saw that too, they probably haven't synched their inventory I went ahead and ordered the pewter. I can definitely use them, it's just it seems like they won't be as versatile. Ana, do you wear your snake ones a lot? I find that they only go with very neutral monochromatic outfits, but I might have to get more creative.
