Sorry to hear that.

Let it heal, so don't be too anxious to wear the heels later.

Sorry to hear that Tina. It sucks to have to wait again for something you've already been waiting for. I just got a new pair of T-strap sandals in the mail yesterday, which I had ordered two weeks ago. They are a size 10 and I usually wear an 11. But I can often fit in size 10 sandals, so I took a chance. I didn't have them for a half hour when I pulled the strap out from trying to slip them on while buckled. :sad: I knew better because of the size, but tried anyway.

Now I had a decision, take them to the cobbler, where it would probably be another week before I got to wear them, or try to fix them myself, taking the chance on ruining them completely. The thread holding the strap in is what broke. I figured that glue wouldn't work well, so I got a thread and needle. With the intent of using the existing needle holes, I sewed back on the strap. Didn't always make the hole alignment perfectly and the thread is a bit lighter than the original color, but the repair serves my purpose and I got to wear them last night (and right now as I type this).

Wishing you a quick recovery!
