Beautiful Shoes

I absolutely love these! They are so classic! I usually wear a 10 and went with that size. They are a little large and slip in the back a bit but I feel if I went down to a 9.5 the toe would be too tight so I am just going to stuff a tissue in the front to fix the slipping. I love the way they look and compliment all my retro inspired outfits. Another win from American Duchess! This is my 4th style from them and I can't get over the craftmanship and gorgeous designs and they are so comfortable!

We're happy to hear you love your Marilyns! We recommed trying the Back of Heel inserts if your heel is slipping out of the shoes when walking. You can find them on our website under accessories.

Another home run!

Just received my Marilyn brown mock croc, they are gorgeous and fit perfectly. The color was not what I expected but in a good way. It's a really dark brown with a hint of burgundy (at least to me) that really works well with my wardrobe. I can't wait to show them off.

Ordered down a half size from my normal street shoes - PERFECTION

These are awesome. Fit was perfect after going down a half size from my flats. They felt very stable and super cute. I have some balance issues, and I never felt insecure or wobbly on these. I also didn't get a single blister or hot spot from wearing them right out of the box for 4 hours. I will definitely purchase these in other colors and look forward to trying other American Duchess shoes. Returns were a breeze and ordering/shipping smooth. Customer Service was also outstanding (I initially shipped to the wrong address, and had sizing issues, they promptly responded to my inquiries).

So comfortable!

I’ve been looking for some comfortable black concert shoes and these are perfect! I love that the heel is stable and I can stand in them for hours. Surprisingly they are quite large. I’m always a 7 in every brand including American Duchess but I had to size down to a 6.5 for these. Now that I have the right size, I love them!

Perfect for AGSUs!

I was a little hesitant because they’re taller than I typically buy but they absolutely go perfectly with the current Army AGSU (pinks and greens) uniform. I always get so many compliments when I wear them and they appear to be AR 670-1 compliant. I cut the photo to just my shoes as I do not represent, or intend to represent, the Army or Dept of Defense.
