Description

Why sacrifice your vintage style for practicality when you can have both with a great pair of common sense oxfords? A good, solid oxford is a real asset to any vintage fashion enthusiast. Our Claire 1940s Oxfords meet all the requirements of a sensible shoe while also being stylish and unique.

Claire 1940s Oxfords are direct reproductions of an original CC41 compliant "Academy Girl" brand shoe. They meet all the requirements for most military unit dress shoes and are similar in design and decoration to original styles sold as military dress shoes by historic brands such as Red Cross and Lotus.

Claires are constructed of a black calf leather upper, lined in brown pigskin leather, with leather soling and a 1.6 in / 4 cm stacked-look heel, just like the original.

Gorgeous and practical

Wanted a shoe that would work both for dressing up formal and for daily wear, and so far, these shoes have worked very well for that. They’re beautiful and classy, but still fairly subtle. (The click clack of the heel is not so subtle, but it’s fun!) I’ve done some long walking days in these already and they were pretty comfortable. I am still waiting for them to fully break in, as they don’t fit my right foot quite as well as my left, but I’m sure they’ll be super comfortable then.

Love!!!

I bought the Claire's because the other oxfords were sold out. I absolutely love these shoes! They are my go-to pair when I run to the store. I wore them all weekend at a WWII reenactment and they are troopers. I do wish there was a little bit more cushion in the heel area as the ball of my heel will get fatigued after a bit of walking.
Even wore them for dancing, they're just fantastic
