Gladys Vintage Cap Toe Oxfords (Brown/Cognac)

Beautiful! Bought these for my oldest, they love them! Hoping to get a different pair for myself in the future.

Great shoes. They look wonderful, the materials are sturdy and well pot together, and they're very comfortable. I wore them for hours right out of the box with no discomfort at all.

These shoes are made with care, attention to detail. I absolutely love the shoes!

Comfortable right out of the box. I wore them shopping all day.

I ordered these beautiful shoes and they don't fit. They are too big, I should have went down a size. I tried to return them, only to get a message to say this product is not returnable. I'm a very unhappy first time customer. My first and last purchase with American Duchess.
Thank you

They fit well and looked great which is all you want in a shoe. Have worn them multiple times already and have had no issues with them.

My young adult daughter dresses in different period clothes. She just bought her 5th American Dutchess shoes. She encouraged me to buy a pair. I absolutely love the quality & craftsmanship. I look forward to wearing various outfits to go with my shoes.

These shoes are cute but the size was wrong. They wouldn't exchange for the right size because it was a final sale. I didn't want to return them or get a different style, just needed a different size - too bad the company is so hard to work with - They lost a good customer!!

I think this might be the first time ever I never had pain from wearing a new pair of shoes. The shoes fit so well. The quality is top of the line. I'm very pleased.

These shoes are very pretty- but I was surprised to realize that they are half suede (or nubuck?). This is clearly marked in the description, though not obvious from the pictures. The more delicate material makes them less suitable for everyday wear than I hoped.

They fit great from the first time wearing them for set dancing.

These shoes are high quality. Perfect fit. Perfect style. I love them!!

While it’s a very pretty shoe, unfortunately I don’t think I will be able to wear it because the toe box is the shape like a flattened cone. I wear a size 9 and bought a size 9 and I do think it would fit if my two smallest toes were not smooshed in by the shoe. Yes, I was expecting a narrow shoe but I wish it was more clear the shape of the toe box so I could have filter out ones that would be too confined. I did know I wouldn’t be able to return them but I thought at least I might be able to exchange them since I definitely wanted a pair. I don’t know if I will be successful in stretching out the shoes as I was emailed to do so they will sit for now in their box.

I own three pairs of Gladys oxfords, and if budget permitted I'd own them in every color! As another reviewer said, they need a bit of time to break in the leather; but once broken in, they're incredibly comfortable. I get compliments every time I wear them, and they look just as good with modern outfits as with retro garb.

It's the second pair i buy to American Duchess and again, i am beyond happy with these! The quality is great, it's exactly as described and it's a perfect fit for my size. I haven't felt that comfortable in a pair of shoes in a long time! Thanks again for your wonderful work and seriousness!

Bought these shoes so that I could dress as a 1930's gentleman for a play, and they do the trick quite well while still fitting my dainty size 7 feet. My only regret was not ordering them sooner, as I didn't have time to break them in before the show! My heels were absolutely destroyed, and the shoes fit tightly enough that, months later, I still can't put any kind of padding in them without them becoming too tight to fit into. I did discover, though, that they fit my modern orthotics very well, and those elevate my heel enough that I can wear these shoes in comfortably. My suggestion to any other buyers is to wear them in a little at a time - eventually, they will mold to your foot beautifully.
