And it's about time!

It's been several years since we've had red Kensingtons available in the shop, but they're finally on their way now, and you can pre-order them to reserve your pair!

We've made some improvements to the original red Kensies:


  • Darker red color (oxblood) inspired by original 18th c. Moroccan leather shoes
  • Premium quality, hand-finished calf leather upper
  • Leather lining
  • Thick and sturdy leather soling
  • Functional and accurate latchet closure fastens with 18th century shoe buckles
  • Our signature 1.75 inch French heels - stylish and comfortable.
