Dries is very particular about the terms of conditions for sellers. First sellers have to be approved to sell online. For example in Canada Simons the first season they carried Dries they posted their collection online and then got a swift email from DVN. Second condition is that they are, as @baltimoron mentioned, region specific.

Has anybody seen these outside of Mr Porter?

The smooth leather is infinitely better than the pebbles version from last AW but also way more expensive.
Mr Porter has a habit over overpricing some things so I'm hoping if I could see them somewhere else I'd know what kind of price they'd be irl, or if an eu shop has them and somebody would
Proxy. I thought I saw them at Jeffrey but I don't see them anymore.
I was hoping they'd been in a $700 range like last year, no 1100 after taxes.

I was hoping so but their DVN has been up for a while and these have been on Mr P for at least a month so I was thinking they should have been delivered and put online by now.

I live in France and I go quite often to the DVN boutique in Paris.
I can proxy if needed.

I went with a friend who was there for PFW so it was a great coincidence.

Was a really nice place.

The red walls are original to when it was purchased in the 70s and the back room is supposed to portray a Parisian living space iirc

At least that's what the SA who had a habit of winking at us explained.

Would absolutely return when I'm a bit less tight with my wallet.
