If you are in Europe, this probably may be an interesting place for you?

http://www.la-piazza-highheels.com/

I know they make their own models, but not sure if they make everything on request...

I just bought some cork mules from www.zoccoli.de

They have rubber on the floor-side and they are realy quiet. I use them as house shoes and they are just perfect.

Also, I found some rubber attachements in a store. The intention is to apply them to shoes with a plain sole to prevent slipping on the pavement. But I think they also reduce noise.

But I think there is still the end of the heels which are also the source of noises, and I have not seen a solution for that so far...

Did La Piazza only take over the web-address for marketing reasons or did they also buy some manufacturing know-how from TLSB?

Those arre awesome boots, I have exactly the same pair in black.

And do you have experience to other manufactures? Do you think the quality is good and they are good for learning to walk in them? (the knee-high version).

Another question: Which size did you order, is it the same as you have on your other high heels or did you go one size larger? (I heard that this is better for walking)

I am about to order from the same place a knee-height pair. @Pussyinboots: How is your experience with it? What about the sizes? Are they authentic? Would be nice to have some input before I order. Stephanie

@pussyinboots: To understand you right, would you recommend the ones from extravaganza over the others in any cases? (sorry my english is not the best) I am about to buy knee high leather BBs and want to figure out if it is better to buy from punitive shoes or extravaganza...

Hi there. As I plan to buy knee high ballet boots, I want to find where is the best place to buy them from. They should be of good quality as I seriously want to learn to walk in them. I ended up now to decide between two suppliers: punitiveshoes.com extravaganza.de Extravaganza also sells a product from an italian manufacturer, though not the same as punitive shoes and they are a bit cheaper than punitive shoes. Does anyone have experience with both of them and can help me in my decission? Thanks for all your facts and opinions Stephanie
