The Hermes Shoes was a reward given to players that had an active FFXIV Service Account and an active FFXI Playonline Service Account both within the same SE Account back in V1.0. The item would only show up on characters created in V1.0 at a time when both accounts were active.

SE made it clear in announcements made for the termination of subscription billing for FFXIV back in September 2012 that all promotions involving having both FFXI and FFXIV active like this would end on September 29, 2012, and it would appear to me that they do not intend to do this kind of promotion again.

Since there was no registration code involved in this particular promotional item, it is my belief that no one will receive a new version of the Hermes Shoes in this way in FFXIV:ARR. If you happen to still have the Hermes Shoes in the inventory of a V1.0 character as of the Save Maintenance on October 31, 2012, they should still be there when you pick up the character in FFXIV:ARR. But that will be the only way you will have them any more from this promotion.
