American Duchess shoes are designed specifically for historical costumers and reenactors. They are closely based on extant examples of footwear found in museums.Particular attention is paid to accuracy and quality. We use 100% silk and 100% quality leather materials, with smooth Italian leather soles. Our white silk and white leather shoes can be dyed and painted to match your costume.
Comfort is key. American Duchess shoes are constructed to fit modern feet, and keep you comfortable at all-day events. They have all the padding and arch support of modern shoes, but the look and function of period footwear. We don't believe in crippling our customers!
American Duchess shoes are unique and exclusive. Only a few hundred pair of each style exist in the world, and styles are often retired after just one or two runs.
