Chie Mihara black flat mary janes, size 39.8


From the top...


and from the bottom. (Whoops! camera strap in there. professional photog I am not!)

Insides coming out a little. This is the ONLY part where the ribbon is showing.
My cobbler said this is an inexpensive fix. 

With the insides tucked in. 

A small flaw on the right shoe. My finger is there for comparison. 


Leather, size 39.5. Made in Spain. 
What do we have here? Chie Mihara black mary janes with a crossover at the toe. 

Size
: 39.5 M (best fits an 8.5).  I find that Chie Mihara runs on the more narrow side, but these are truly an 8.5.

Composition
: Leather with leather instep and rubber textured sole. 

Why am I getting rid of these?
 Good grief, I stalked and stalked these, and couldn't rationalize spending $350 on a pair of shoes (gulp). Then, these lovelies went on sale at my local shoe shop for $200 because they were a floor sample and had some minor, fixable flaws (see pictures!). I bought them, thinking I'd wear them and stretch them out. Unfortunately, this didn't happen. I wore them twice, inside, on carpet at work and decided never again.They've sat in my closet for almost 2 years. Sad for the shoes, sad for me. Perhaps happy for you, though?


Anything else? Again, please see the photos for details of the minor flaws. I think the scrape can be fixed with shoe polish, and my cobbler told me the stitching can be easily fixed for relatively cheap. 

How much? $100, plus shipping.
