We do get a few reader requests per day and while we’re not always able to find a great alternative right away, we store those reader requests in our archives and keep coming back to them to make sure we do our best to help our readers find something within their budget. Take this request by Kimberly from March 2010 for example where she asked us to help her find a cheaper alternative for a pair of Pierre Hardy booties.:
I just saw these boots at Barney’s New York. They are a little out of my budget at $1000. Anything similar? I love the style and cut!! Thanks!!

Chinese Laundry “Hopscotch” Slingback Sandals
It might has taken us 9 months to find a proper alternative, but these slingback sandals by Chinese Laundry sure were worth the wait, weren’t they? They are virtually identical if compared to the Pierre Hardy originals, but cost only 1/10 of the price. Available in cognac and black. Hope we could help you out, Kimberly! ![]()
