Loro Piana summer walk loafers

I ordered gray pearl from Saks and received pearl powder. They appear lighter than the photos. I can add photos if anyone is interested. They are sold out in this size. Not accepting offers! They were $1150 after taxes. These are always sold out and I just want to see if anyone is interested before I return them. Returning on Friday. If you want to pay retail, keep your eye out on Saks website.
