problems with Vass

[Guest]

I ordered a pair of Vass shoes from Schumann in Vienna. The owner of that store is a pleasure to deal with, speaks English well, and the shows, a pair of black pebble-grain Budapesters with leather sole, are really comfortable, more elegant than I expected.

The problem is the follow-through. I tried to get another pair of Vass shoes, this time from Eva Vass in Hungary (because Schumann doesn't have the model I want). Her cell phone connection is bad, her English is not great, and she is slow to answer emails. After more than a week of this, I gave up and contacted Kielman. I spoke with Kielman himself. His English is excellent, he laughs after every sentence (very Polish) to the point I began to feel ill-humored by comparison (how funny can shoes be, really?), and he is Internet savy. I am going to try him (I think). The EG Dundee is not ruled out, just on hold.

Ever since Miguel posted photographs of his fine shoes, Kielman has been most attractive to me. Do let us know each step of your progress with the Polish company, David.
