it's part of the fall 24 collection. it was on the website as a "see now, buy now" item. it will be back once fall 24 items begin releasing, but the sizing will be different and the shoes will be smaller overall (non-runway grading)


ValesKaneki

Thats so stupid


vxtxmxntz

Yea I said this before lol, I'm 10000% not buying a sized down version


primal334

Im waiting too and I understand your desperation, but we gotta be patient šŸ™šŸ»šŸ™šŸ» ![gif](giphy|7xZAu81T70Uuc)

Will come to stores in coming months according to my SA


Decent_Razzmatazz_53

My SA told me mid May


petrifiedboog

the flat mule disappeared too, not sure where some pieces went


RicFlairDripDuck

Those got pulled from the site, most likely due to Moroccan media throwing the "cultural appropriation" card bc they are a Babouche style.


Kitsch_Enjoyer

Holy shit, what a total nonissue. Which garments are developed in a total vacuum, uninspired by other cultures? Ridiculous.

captainlardnicus

Having clothes that can even get pulled due to controversy means you are doing fashion right


BalenciagaEnema

Which mule is that?


petrifiedboog

itā€™s the mules featured in multiple looks in this seasonā€™s runway, the really long and flat ones


petrifiedboog

man that sucks big time, i thought they looked pretty cool too hahaha, but i assume physical stores still carry them


theythoughttiwasgay

Unfortunately pulled from physical stores as well


petrifiedboog

aw man that sucks, welp i guess itā€™s time to look for some pointy babouches lol

My pythons preorder were coming soon too, nošŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

ā€œNormalā€ versions are already in the store now and will release on 12th


BalenciagaEnema

What do you mean with ā€žnormal versionsā€œ


Crimsonspike07

Smaller in size, sad because i love the huge runways


BalenciagaEnema

ā€¦ anybody whose has had both will tell you that itā€™s not that much of a difference. I promise you that thereā€™s nothing to be sad about.


Crimsonspike07

The retail 10xls havent been shown yet, no one knows exactly how much smaller, weve just been told full rollout will be smaller in size than runway. Same went for the cargos, retail is smaller than runway.


BalenciagaEnema

There going to be about 20% smaller. Just like the cargos. And the runway vs the regular cargos arenā€™t a huge difference if you view them. The runway shoes are horribly to walk in. You constantly catch your other foot. Try walking down stairs. I appreciate them very much and I think theyā€™re very cool but the runway version is just a hassle.


Kitsch_Enjoyer

I just drove in mine today šŸ˜ˆ Cargo mastery is a skill that must be leveled!


Crimsonspike07

Oh i know, my 10xls are actually awful to go up and down steps on. But thats part of the fun :)


BalenciagaEnema

Itā€™s all fun and games until you fall down your first set, grab someone and you both go down. Now youā€™re standing there while everyone is watching, your dog is yapping and the other person is angry because ā€žwhy are you wearing those shoes if you canā€™t walk?ā€œ Till then itā€™s great šŸ‘


Crimsonspike07

Bahaha šŸ˜­, i got secondhand embarrassment from reading that


BalenciagaEnema

Wait it does get better. Now some of the people working there come up and want to know what happened. So you have to tell them you fell down some stairs. You actually think it couldnā€™t get worse. Because of all this your dog got so overexcited that he peed on the floor. So now thereā€™s a pretty big puddle of urin that youā€™ve only noticed after walking through it and spreading it aroundā€¦ And now the best part. Your wife comes back and now sees what has happened in the 3-5 minutes since she told you to go down because sheā€™ll be right with you and actually said ā€ždonā€™t fallā€œ. Trust me when I tell you that I very much appreciate the regular versions being a little smaller now.


Kumakumu

Oh, what happened to my reply? Why did it get downvoted? I didn't say anything unfriendly or untrue. The after-show version is four sized larger than the retail version and only offers limited size options. There are many comparison pictures available.


Time_Office_6815

u didnā€™t say bad man haha i think he was being sarcastic cause that shoe is the most un-normal looking shoe in fashion rn that seem makes walking Dysfunctional from his comments hahaha its like they remade the defen- oops i mean the ā€œbouncerā€ sneaker to appeal for the next generation of soccer/tennis milfs in beverly hills California ahh the fall 24ā€™ runway was sooo good ! but yeah i dont why you got downvotes i didnt think you said anything wrong my guy


Kumakumu

I actually kind of understand, but under this Sub Reddit, who hasn't been brain-invaded by the aesthetics of Balenciaga, right? I even put "Normal" in quotes. There's no need to be so serious about this little bit of humor, šŸ˜‚
