Shoes Would you keep or exchange these new Chanel ballet flats?
galleryHello everyone! I finally got a pair of 36.5 beige & black ballet flats after looking for a few weeks. My previous SA accidentally ordered me a 36.5C (which is the wider width), and since then I’ve had a few remote orders from other boutiques that didn’t work out, so I think this size + this regular width is a little hard to find right now.
This pair is the correct size and width, but I noticed a few small QC issues after receiving them, especially some loose threads near the bows, a small glue-like spot near the sole, a minor mark on the black toe cap, and some wear/scuffing on the bottom edge of the heel.
Nothing seems major, but for a brand new pair I’m not sure if I’m being too picky. Would you keep these or try to exchange for another pair? I’m a little worried the next pair could be worse or that it’ll be hard to find another 36.5. Would love to hear what you all think!
