Splurge vs. Steal: Gladiator Wedge Sandals (Balenciaga vs. Nine West)

January 28th, 2008 Posted in Splurge vs. Steal

Last summer, celebs like Christy Turlington, Courteney Cox and Mary Kate Olsen trotted on and off the red carpet in their Balenciaga gladiator wedge sandals. Those quickly sold out and are impossible to find. But of course Nine West adapted the design at a much lesser price and even those are not available in stores anymore. Thankfully, Zappos still has them fully stocked in several colors and sizes.

I personally shied away from last summer’s super flat gladiator sandals but the added lift of the wedge makes legs more flattering so I am considering getting a pair of these in the colors pictured below. They also come in silver, bronze, and gold reptile and are $92.95 at Zappos.com.

      I would go for the Balenciaga splurge…I bet they fit amazingly and will not hirt your feet. I am a true beliver that the better the shoe is made the more comfortable they are.
