Reposhing this item I purchased from @luxe_lady1. Loved it, but ready to rotate for something new. After purchase, I never wore them but had a cobbler add the protective red grip to the sole (see revised picture). Cobbler also worked on the front with the slight defect to make it less noticeable (see last photo). Louboutin’s run small. I normally wear an 8.5 in shoes and these are a 9.5 and fit perfectly.
