You need to go to the nearest big town and try, try, try.

Megglevache · 09/09/2008 14:08

Oh I bought a lovely pair last year in an independent shoe store. Where's your nearest big town?

Have you tried Duo?

lovecat · 09/09/2008 14:08

Can't do metric - how high is 8cm? If it's 3 inches, how about these?

Megglevache · 09/09/2008 14:08

duo

Megglevache · 09/09/2008 14:10

Megglevache · 09/09/2008 14:11

smller than 3 inches but with a platform

Snaf · 09/09/2008 14:11

I got a pair in Faith ?last year? Brown suede with a 3in wedge heel, knee length. Ebay?

Winetimeisfinetime · 09/09/2008 14:12

emotion have some wider fit ones. Not quite 3" heels though . They had them as a special promotion a few weeks ago at £30 so if you liked them, keep an eye on the site as they regularly have reductions.

Might be worth phoning some DM stockists in your area. I'm getting some boots that are £70 on the website, but £55 in the shop.

Snaf · 09/09/2008 15:05
