When Pierre Hardy’s gorgeous suede boots and leather sandals for Gap were released in stores last October, they seemed to sell out so quickly that most shoppers didn’t even get a chance to glimpse their beauty, let alone buy a pair. (I was luckily enough to spy them at Gap’s London flagship on Oxford Street as well as its lower 5th Avenue shop in New York.)
However, Fashionista reader Andrea tipped us off today that the mid-calf suede boots with a wrap-around buckle are now available online in both grey and sand.
I did indeed try this pair on at the store and I must say, the built-in platform makes them very comfortable for a heel this high. And they look good, too. Definitely more expensive than the $175 price tag.
Why do we think that Gap decided, months later, to release these online? Well, there’s a chance a back-order came through. Unlike the first Pierre Hardy x Gap collection, this one actually sold out–and quickly. Luckily, those whose local Gap didn’t carry the shoes can now get their hands on them. Happy Shopping!
