I’m a huge collector of Bordello shoes, and when I was completely smitten with their recent Rhenish Collection, I didn’t hesitate to order them. I’ve been a fan for years and the shoes I’ve ordered in the past have never disappointed. I was expecting the same delightful quality of excellent footwear that came with the new collection.
I ordered a pair of Bordello Teeze Rhine Turquoise Satin Platform Heels with a jaw dropping price tag attached to them of $145.00. Now when someone buys a pair of expensive shoes, they expect nothing but the best quality.
This is what I really got:
The shoes are gorgeous, the turquoise color represented in the photos found online, I received exactly the same pair. The shoes shine in the sun and so attract attention. The company was also nice enough to go ahead and attach a bag of loose turquoise rhinestones for you to attach if one of them comes. This is beautiful, but it is a sure sign that the rhinestones are slipping. This would not have been the case if the rhinoceroses had placed new gems through the satin of those rhinoceros claws. It could be done, and this price should be done;
Rather, they were gluing them together and weaving them at ridiculously high prices.
The unfortunate thing about these splendid shoes was that one rhinestone had already fallen out of the box. Other rhinestones hung at the bottom 5 with a thin thread of glue. I had to remove them and put myself in place.
This is not certain when you should make a brand new shoe.
In addition to the rhinoceros loose from the chest, when I noticed the shoes, I noticed that many of the stones were not properly placed, and you could see a darker spot of glue on the material where the stone was placed; not placed on top of it, but laid down beside it, leaving ugly gaps here and there around the shoes.
Although I have picked, it is not known when they are on the feet, yet at this price, it will be considered as a shoe failure, which is how I feel about them overall.
Then I found another major problem with the shoes. The shoe code at the bottom right has literally slipped. They didn’t even bother to glue them, but if I hadn’t taken this case, I would have lost the entire heel pad. and shoes unwearied, or indefatigable, until I was afflicted with a trowel for walking.
Now I understand that the rhinoceros is loose on both sides, because they are just attached to the satin, but seriously, the heel pad has slipped, and I haven’t even put it on yet! O joke!
I don’t know if Bordello uses a cheaper company to construct the shoes, but the quality has decreased significantly. I wanted to buy every color they had in stock, but not after seeing how bad they turned out.
Over:
Frustrated on the side. I am afraid and disgusted by the Bordello, how badly they are made. I was tired of having to fix the heel pad before I had a chance to wear it. I will not buy another pair of rhinoceros heels, as I think, as hastily, carelessly, and badly as the first pair.
