FOR ALL SHOE PURCHASES: Remember that when you are buying pre-loved shoes there is always the risk of rubber parts such as heel tips deteriorating upon wear. This is completely normal with age as most rubber deteriorates over time— heel tip replacement is an easy fix at a cobbler/shoe repair shop for around $20 or less typically. We are not responsible for damage that occurs after wear, as this is entirely out of our control and we have no way of knowing how heel tips will hold up upon being worn.

All of our luxury items go through a careful authentication process in-house and/or through an independent third party authenticator prior to listing. We firmly believe in preserving the art, craft, and history behind fashion design and stand firmly against / never support the counterfeit industry. In the very unlikely event that you can prove an item you received is inauthentic via a written certificate from a reputable authenticator we will issue a full refund. 

We also offer the optional add-on of a formal Certificate of Authenticity from a third-party authenticator for $25 each. To add a COA to your order, check the "Add Certificate of Authenticity +$25" box under the Add to Cart button on the item's page. 

Please understand that we do sell a number of older era designer pieces and vintage pieces do not always follow typical modern-day styles, serial numbers, stamps or tags that you may be familiar with. This does not mean an item is inauthentic. There are many instances where brands changed the way they produced or stamped items in certain production eras. Our authenticators are familiar with this, and know what signs to look for when authenticating older items.

Thank you for understanding as we grow our small business ♡
