dirkw01 Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 Hi gang! I surfed Zappos for a new pair of mules/clogs a nd found this one : They are available in my footsize european 43 (us-women 12), BUT I live in germany/europe and Zappos don't ship outside U.S. So, has anyone an idea how to get my hands (oops . . . feet) on a pair of those shoes? Kind regards Dirk
Bubba136 Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 Surely there must be a shoe store in Germany that sells styles like these, isn't there? (Styles from shore to shores can't be that different) Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Ionic Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 Hi Dirk, welcome to the group, You example is very much in line with some of the styles Gene has suggested on other topic threads. Speaking from the UK they seem to have a US flavour to them, although others might disagree, and the general #look and feel# of these suggestions are not seen widely here. I know two regular members here who know the 'market' twice as well as I do and usually locate those hard to find items. Obviously global brands such as Nine West have similar styles everywhere. We don't see US low prices either ! /I /I
dirkw01 Posted November 5, 2003 Author Posted November 5, 2003 @bubba : There are stores in germany, which sell "Clarks" online, but I haven't found this special style anywhere in those online-stores @ionic : I'm a regular reader of this board for some time. I just haven't posted yet. Kind regards Dirk
Ionic Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Sorry dirk, I only noticed your post count and not the joining date. Glad you started posting now - the more opionions the merrier. My gap from reading to joining & posting was only a couple of weeks!! /I /I
Taccofan Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Hi Dirk, I have noticed same problem but if you want to buy US shop like Zappos, check out this site: http://www.finishlinepack.com/ They can help you. They give you an US address and forwarding your purchases to you.
dirkw01 Posted November 6, 2003 Author Posted November 6, 2003 @taccofan: That service sounds great. Have you or any other heel-lover any experience with their service? Thanx in advance. Kind regards Dirk
Taccofan Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 Sorry. I havent tried them yet, but it is sure at I will in the future. Did you see my Topic I started. I am looking for same kind services from Germany, but there is no company like this?
dirkw01 Posted November 6, 2003 Author Posted November 6, 2003 I have just read your Topic. I don't know of such a company here in germany. But maybe we two can arrange something together. Email me your request and I consider to order it for you and send it to you as long as there are no extra-costs on my side. And the best for you . . . no fee. Just an offer. Kind regards Dirk
Taccofan Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 That's great, thanks. I'll do that when I make my decision to order something. Hope, you'll get your staff from US. Taccofan

dirkw01 Posted November 7, 2003 Author Posted November 7, 2003 Nice idea! But I have already a day-filling job. That offer to Taccofan should remain a "friend-to-friend" thing. But as James Bond once said "Never say never". We'll see. Kind regards Dirk
