Anyone know where I can find the proper matching feet for the Eames Shell Chairs? they are white plastic movable feet. I do need them to match the standard Eames Shell Chairs.

they're called glides.
I'd try Hermanmiller.com first, they have phone contact numbers there that may be able to help you out. it's possible they still produce them as the shell chairs are in production again.
eamesoffice.com may also be able to steer you to them. This is the Eames family business, carried on by Charles & Rays kids.

Hi
Have you checked on Ebay?........
When I was selling my chairs on Ebay some people contacted me and just wanted the feet, so my point is maybe someone is selling the chairs that are not in good condition and you can ask them if you bid and win can you just have the chair feet, its a try. People have done that to me and not only with chairs, with other things like old games, they win but just want the pieces not the case and not the board.
It won't hurt to try.

This may sound kind of stupid but can you post a foto of the feet you are looking for? I think I may have some here at the house.
