It's from the France website, they ship to EU countries only. I am shipping them to an forwarding agent in Germany which ship to a pick up point in Hong Kong. The trouble is if something wrong with the merchandise, you will have to ship them back on your own expenses.

What's the best way to get the Outlet pricing from Weston to the United States? I see a bunch of EU countries... is there ex-VAT with shipping forwarders?
@Louis_HK any recommendation on freight forwarder?
Thanks all in advance!

I have no idea if shipping from Europe to US. It's more complicated since it might involve tax and duties. Maybe the only vat-exempt price is to contact J.M. Weston Galeries Lafayette email [email protected] to arrange a purchase, I think they will handle such purchase if there's stock available. Forwarders I am using only forward from foreign countries to Hong Kong.

As a follow-up to my experiment in having my half-size-too-small 180s stretched, it added a small amount of width and maybe 1/16th" in length – not enough to make them work for me. It's about what I expected, but had to try.

I suppose mainly for @gettoasty.

Well, I bought those "Animation" loafers. Unhinged behavior, as my partner would say.

Cause to reflection, I have to agree with earlier comments that, for the price you're paying, we might at least get some shoe bags out of it.

 

[gettoasty]

I just need my pair to stretch a little in the width. And mine did come with shoe bags fwiw 🤷🏻

I think if you have sufficient length, getting them stretched widthwise would give you what you need. But if they're too small in both respects, stretching did not achieve much of anything for me.

Just to understand some more, you needed more room in width and length?

Width and length. However, I did not expect length to stretch. They are a half size down from the size I am taking in my newer (more comfortable) pairs, at least in boxcalf.
