I ordered a pair of 8.5 grants last week at the sale online (store didnt have any left near my size) in the hopes they would fit me (i wear 7.5uk c&j, figured 8.5 would be the way to go with the grants). I just got them and there is a little bit of heel slippage, feels like they might be a tad too big. Anybody have any guess when the mansion will get more in stock so i can go try on/possibly exchange them for a size 8?? Ive wanted these for years, worst case i might just keep the 8.5 and put in some dr sholls or some of those heel slip pads in the back, im not looking to give these up. thanks

James,

I bet the Polo Store in Palo Alto, CA still has the size 8's I didn't end up keeping precisely because the heel slipped too much. Call them at (650) 326-1710. I hope it works out.

black - i was thinking of just giving them to somebody here for whta i paid but tell you the truth i'll probably just end up keeping them and put up with the slippage if i cant find a 8. I assume with a little break in and them slip pads it wont be so bad, i'd just like to get a perfect fit if im spending $500 (i cant believe that feels like a bargain, i hate you people)
