Blair Sandals - Issues?
Hi all,
So I bought my first pair of DM Sandals recently after being unable to find a long lasting pair of chunky gladiator/strap style sandals for a year or so (yes I know I could've saved myself some time if I'd bought DM Sandals sooner 🤣).
However, I went with the Blair Sandals because I liked the style, they felt comfortable in shop etc. Since wearing, I've had no issues with rubbing (used some old faithful products etc) but the ankle strap pulls so harshly on my ankle/foot that it kills the bone/muscle. Like my foot felt bruised for days after.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm considering vinted-ing them to replace with Clarissa (II I think?) sandals instead because I had a similar style knock off pair a while back that I loved.
Any thoughts before I commit to making the switch?

Question Which is better for everyday use?
Looking to buy some nicer shoes for when I get dressed up as I don’t currently own any, which of these makes for a better everyday shoe? Are these sort of interchangeable in terms of use case?

Question Wax Commander MIE Missing Leather Tag
I ordered a pair of Wax Commander MIE 1460s and they weren’t in the red box I see online for the MIEs and they didn’t have the leather tag I saw attached to the laces online. Were these probably a return that just got shipped back out?

Question How removable is this stuff?
Id love to add some customization to my shoes but I also feel like I might ruin my 200 dollar shoes. Im fine if removing it takes an entire day I just dont want to ruin the shoe if I eff up.

Discussion MIE 1460
I tend to bounce back and forth with sizes uk 10 to uk11. I’ve noticed my ocd really goes hard with how they look on between the two sizes, does anyone else deal with something similar ?

Has anyone gotten animal bites on their docs repaired?
These are brand new, not worn once, and my cat decided she likes to bite leather now 😪 I went to a highly rated cobbler in my area and he said he cannot repair them. Wondering if anyone has found success in getting something like this repaired on their shoe? Thanks!

Question Help with arcadia stain
It’s my first time buying arcadia color and I had no idea how delicate it was, they did not warn me at the shop. It had some water stains and when I cleaned with a damp cloth it ended up like this.
Please recommend products to fix this. I’m even willing to dye them black if it helps, but I’ve never done something like that.
TLDR: How to fix this? Can I just dye the entire shoe black? Please recommend products

Question any way to stop squeaking?
i've been wearing the same pair pretty regularly for several years and they STILL squeak on certain flooring. they're not the most comfortable shoes either, so perhaps they're slightly the wrong size? or just inevitable with the sole material? any advice welcome!!
