Esme 1930s Wedges (Gold/Black)

These shoes are stunning and shockingly comfortable and I can’t wait to show them off!!!

I have admired the original 1930s pair of these shoes for years now, and love that someone finally reproduced them.
They are very comfortable, which was a happy surprise, and it was difficult to choose from the 4 great color schemes. So happy!

I love this shoe - fits perfect. I walked in them all day and was fine.

and they feel good too! Love the shoes and they compliment so many outfits.

the wedge might take a bit of getting used to if you're more accustomed to flats, but they are still more stable than any high heel I currently own.

The shoes are stunning, and the fit is perfect. And I'm most impressed with the customer service!

10/10!

Totally unique and pretty comfortable! I will be wearing them with everything.

I bought these for my wife, and she absolutely loves them. She reports that they look and feel great and are comfortable enough for daily wear.

I slipped these on expecting spectacle and prepared to suffer for beauty.

I suffered not.

Black velvet sophistication above and absolute jubilant rainbow stripes below. These are not sensible shoes.

Miraculously comfortable.
Suspiciously comfortable.

I wore them out for cocktails last night and, in a completely rational decision, immediately ordered the fuchsia pair. (The last ones, too.)

I had been stocking the rainbow version of Esme for MONTHS, waiting for them to be in my size. I usually wear flats so I was emotionally prepared for them to be the pretty shoes I look at but only wear on special occasion. Yall. I wear these EVERYWHERE. They are cute. They are comfy. THEY HAVE RAINBOWS!
Things I was worried about before buying:
1 They have a 2.75 heel - usually anything above 2 has my dogs barking. I can wear these all day. I "broke them in" on the day of my niece's graduation, and packed a pair of flats in case I had to tap out. My friends. We went to the farmer's market, a graduation in a high school stadium (ugh! The stairs!), and multiple graduate parties and my feet didn't hurt.
2 The body of the shoe is black and leather, so they may not be a good choice in summer. Yall. It is the end of June in Las Vegas NV and as I mentioned before: I wear these EVERYWHERE!
3 Wedge shoes can be heavy or have a weird step to them. Nothing to worry about. The heel is wonderfully balanced and not noticeablely heavier than any of my normal/modern shoes. The leather sole gives a nice softness to the toe area so the shoe flexes as the foot moves. (The leather sole can be slick on marble floors or other smooth surfaces but you get used to it.) The body of the shoe holds the foot comfortably and securely. I did change out the cord laces for some flat/ribbon laces and am markedly happier. The cord laces are just bulky enough that after a lot of walking the tops of my feet became aware of the cords.
4 There are rainbows on them, will I really wear rainbow shoes enough to justify the price? I laugh at myself now: did I mention I wear these everywhere?

My current concern is that I will wear out the sole of these shoes and won't be able to find a cobbler to fix them properly. My size comes back in stock I am seriously concise buying a second pair!

Was hesitant to order, since I usually order wide shoes because of bunion issues. Sized up from 8.5 to 9 and had no issues. The front part of the shoe is soft enough and adjustable via the ties. So glad I ordered these!

Beautiful shoes, so stylish! Can wear with dresses or capri pants. love the design! Great customer service.

These are real beauties, like all American Duchess shoes! And the quality is amazing. Great fit!

Very elegant and charm! Wonderful shoes also quite confortable. But the bronze parts should be in gold color as described!☺️

Cute but not comfortable. Stitching and leather pieces were a bit off in places.
