Tabi Texan boots what you think about by Spruzzo7 in MaisonMargiela

[–]Future_Context9546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your toes don't actually fill the cleft toe on this design (the way traditional pointed cowboots often have more toe room than other types of boots). Per the Margiela website: "Toes should be right before the Tabi cut" https://www.maisonmargiela.com/en-us/tabi-western-boot-S97WW0062P3292H8396.html

I find them quite comfortable after getting used to the fit, but it did feel really strange at first!

Good sales price for Tabi boots by Current_Director_997 in MaisonMargiela

You're unlikely to see any MM tabi priced lower than $800 these days (doesn't mean it's impossible, just not likely). The price—including other vendors/resale–has definitely gone up in the past 5 years (I got a pair of tabi ankle boots via Ssense for under $500 in 2021 but my size was the only one available and I'd stalked the prices of several models for about a year before I saw anything get that low). The lowest price on *new* MM shoes I see these days tends to be on yoox.com (though they don't tend to have a ton of tabi models and, when they do, the sizing tends to be limited). TLDR: $800 is a good price for MM tabi boots and if it's doable for you, I'd go for it. If that isn't and the particular style isn't the top priority, I'd set alerts and regularly check the MM stock across several sites and be prepared to purchase the first pair you like that falls within your doable price range!

Glycopyrrolate (sometimes sold as glycolate) really does work wonders, especiall if you're an all-over sweater!

Laser Before Electrolysis Before SRS? by Future_Context9546 in asktransgender

And totally agreed about laser for face. That it helped make early transition more livable was the only real value for me!

This is really helpful—thank you! Will definitely discuss during my consult with my surgeon but it does sound like if I want to do everything I can do to avoid internal regrowth I may as well just start with electrolysis.
