I got my shoes!
Unfortunately, the left one makes an awful, loud, funny noise when I walk. Boof, did yours do this? And if so, did it eventually stop once you wore them in a bit?
I am fearing it is a defective pair, since the right shoe does not do this. And it seems the part where it is making the noise is cut slightly higher than it is on the right shoe.
I called Zappos back and held the phone to my foot as I walked around. They could hear the sound over the phone - it's that loud! Unfortunately, they are all sold out of the zebra in my size, so there's no replacement. They are sending me the giraffe, then I can decide whether to keep the giraffe or pray that the zebras eventually soften up enough to stop making the noise.
Zappos has been great, but this is just so depressing.
Also it makes me wonder how many lurkers on YLF see us talking about something here, and snap it up! Because I also decided (after giving it 24 hours to think about) to order the ponte knit Inc pants, only to find they are now sold out of my size in the black. And they are not available in any Macy's store nearby. Grrr. I ended up ordering in the gray, which they did have. I am figuring that these pants, if they fit, will be great to wear on the 24 hour plane trip to HK?
Meanwhile, I convinced Jane to give Me-Too's a shot, and she stalked down a pair of the Nini's at discount. We had fun surfing together through endless sites looking at Me-too's.
