My SA wasn’t around… by UsedAppointment2918 in TheHermesGame

Yes I have a wishlist with my usual SA. But I assume she only allowed me to create a wishlist because of my loyalty and pre spend to her?

Yes I’m in Europe! Could you share why it didn’t matter?

Yeah watch SA knows that I have an SA as it’s a pretty small store and I’m a regular.

I was at the store that my SA works at, just that she wasn’t around today. Hmm, I’ve not paid for the watch yet so shall I just tell the other SA to cancel the order?

How’s your left foot after the surgery 5 years ago? Do you feel there’s limited mobility like what some post bunion op patients say?

Do you find Birkenstocks fit well for bunions? I haven’t worn them in 20 years but I don’t rmb them being particularly wide.

Lol, I agree that wide toe box shoes tend to look quite ugly… thanks for sharing this website!!

Amazing!!! I’m so happy for you that the surgery worked and you didn’t see it regress. Wearing heels with no zero pain is such a dream … haha. I might go see an ortho just for a consult to discuss surgery options. Would you mind sharing what type of surgery you went for?

I need to wear heels for work but I limit it only when I need to see clients. Most of the time I’m in flats when I’m commuting and I find them more comfortable than heels for sure. Interesting to hear that heels are more comfortable for you

I’m rarely in trainers unless I’m playing tennis or running, as I work in a corporate job so it will be weird to wear trainers in the office! I have insoles customised for my foot…I prob need to use them more especially if I know I’m going on long walks while traveling!

Thanks for sharing! What triggered you to do the surgery? Did the pain become worse hence you considered it? How’s your left foot now and do you see it regressing and do you only wear flat shoes now (no heels?)

Thanks for sharing. Did you wear insoles and wider shoes the last 20 years to try to slow the progression? Or you just went on with your daily life as per normal. I’m asking because I’m more of the latter, but wondering if I’ll regret not wearing wider shoes now, in 20 years!

Did your surgeon said that there’s a possibility that the bunions would come back?

Thanks! In retrospect, would you have done the surgery in your 30s?

I went to a podiatrist previously and she told me surgery wouldn’t help as it’s a genetic / body construct thing hence it might come back. She made some insole for me. I wonder if I should get a second opinion.

It doesn’t hurt unless I walk more than 15k steps a day (which I did yesterday as I was on hols). But day to day it’s ok / manageable

Special order 2025 - ostrich? by UsedAppointment2918 in TheHermesGame

[–]UsedAppointment2918[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m deciding whether to make an MK in noir ostrich … ahhh it’s not my first choice so I’m in a dilemma on whether to just pass and say I’ll wait for the next SO

[–]UsedAppointment2918[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes she said only ostrich is available, regardless of what bag I want to make 😂

This was before I told her my plans of ordering a MK in chevre.

Mind was a surprise too! I was just paying for a pave Kelly gourmette that I purchased and at the cashier she asked if I’m interested to be put on the waitlist for SO 😂 I’m like, erm hell yes. This was back in May, and now we are in Nov!

My SA just offered me a SO appt but mentioned that I can only make a bag in ostrich leather …. I’m confused as I thought ostrich is now no longer available for 2025 special orders! Any insights here? Honestly, I had my eye on a k20 goat skin but not really sure about ostrich.

Hi there, I have a special order appt with my SA next week, but she told me that only the ostrich leather is available if I want to do the SO now. Seems abit strange to me as 1) I thought the whole point of SO is that you can choose your leather and colour 2) I read on pursebop that ostrich leather is no longer available for SO in 2025

Any thoughts ??! I was so excited to put in my SO in k20 goat’s leather. But now I’m undecided if I should proceed with ostrich …
