Reply to comment by jennycotton in Women's heels - do they exist in the BIFL category? Or at least lasting a couple of years... by jennycotton

Chanel just did a flared block heel in a Mary Jane style. They also had some low and mid heeled slingbacks but I can’t remember what colors.

yes the classic Chanel two tone slingbacks with a modest block heel have been on my list forever. But Chanel quality has tanked in recent years so I'm reticent

Their classic stuff seems to still be good quality. It’s their trendy stuff that I’ve seen have a few issues. And if you have a good sales associate they will go above and beyond to get you a replacement.

I feel like Chanel puts out so many shoe designs, though. Which is probably why their production is all over the place. There were shoes I previewed in July. I wanted the same pair in black and white. My SA got me the black ones in July and the white ones just showed up last week. They sell out of everything because of the name but their inconsistency makes me very leery of buying the trendy stuff and so I stick to the classics. Their handbag quality remains very high though.

I had issues with a boy bag I got in 2020. for such an expensive piece i don't want to be arsed with replacements and issues. i've veered from current Chanel but i like buying 90s vintage pieces when Chanel was at its best
