I need some advice assessing the damage on these BB shoes.
This is from one wear with about 15 minutes walking in the rain:

I'm primarily concerned with the wear on the toe as it seems that some of the leather is peeling. Is this damage abnormal and sufficient to warrant an exchange?


do they fit correctly?I bet your gate is at fault as well.


They fit pretty well.

Never had this problem with my other shoes.

I will try ESF next time but the SF were 50% off and ESF was not. I will probably get these tailored, but my tailor quoted me $20-25 a shirt, I dont really think that's worth it... By the time I pay for that I could just got to BB pick up a regular priced shirt and use my 15% corp. discount. On the topic of comparing BB slim fit to other, I really like Polo shirts Regent or Custom fit. They are really nice, but I rarely see these shirts below $60..

free or for a fee?
doubt it's for free... but if it is free
is it because you paid full price for the shirt? or even when buying at discount?
if for a fee, how much?
Bump for this. I'd like to know this info as well. Fee or free!? Free? Free fee? If fee how much? Why free if free!?

Does anybody know how long BB takes to ship from their website? I placed an order for a Milano suit on Sunday and it still says "in stock and reserved." I'm used to items shipping out the next day from most websites and this is my first order from BB online.

It takes forever and a day. I ordered something last week by calling the store to go through my SA and I only just now got a "your item is shipping today!" message. I bought some clearance items awhile back and they took forever too, but I thought maybe that was just poor service because it was clearance. It surprises me that a company that puts such an emphasis on customer service takes so long to ship something.

You'll get an e-mail when the item has actually been shipped.

I agree that they seem to ship pretty slowly with orders placed online. I've had much faster service from BB when placing orders in the store or over the phone. I don't think I've ever waited longer than 36 hours for something to ship when going through my normal SA.

BB can take weeks to ship things out. they really do not seem to understand online retailing.
do they still charge you more for shipping the more you order? truly bizarre.

I called yesterday and they said they were authorizing my cc and verifying info which is total crap because Amex has never put a hold on anything I've ordered online. She said it would ship out today so let's see.

Yes. Almost $10 to ship a single calfskin belt to NJ. Simply because it was expensive. Totally stupid policy.
