Pompadour Leather 18th Century Shoes are the picture-perfect footwear for your exquisite Baroque and Rococo costumes.

Accurate for the 1680s all the way through the 1760s, the Pompadours feature an all-leather construction, our reproduction Louis heels, pointed toes, and the characteristic white rand seen on original 18th century shoes. Wear them for any and all early 18th c. impressions.

Look Amazing, Still working on the fit
I love how pompadour shoes look; the white is stunning, elegant, and classy. The French heel really adds that certain Je ne sais quoi and I am here for it!!! . It's the perfect shade of white, it's not super white (You know where its so white that it look blue and cheap) but it's not an ivory either. I have wore them around with the silk tights, I called in to make sure I had the correct size as well as measured and taken down all my measurements to confirm that the 7 was indeed the right fit. the size 7 is a little tight on my feet, I don't have a narrow foot and I don't have a chunky foot either, i'd say I am average. the 7.5 were too big. (My left foot is significantly longer than my right so I pulled all the measurements from that foot to accommodate to) I am using the leather stretching spray and will continue wearing them around the house. I have a big event in October: the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Point Pleasant in WV. I will be presenting the minuet dance for two days so I need my feet to be comfortable all day for that. so I will definitely be adding more photos to this review once I have the whole outfit together. and see how they perform in the long run.

These shoes are perfect! They are well made, excellent design, and quite comfortable! I love them and can't wait to wear with my 18th century costume!!
I’m so glad I finally ordered a pair of these shoes and couldn’t be happier! Definitely ordering more!!!!
I ordered them for the looks of the outfit I was going with. And I took a chance. I wore them brand new for an all-day walking affair at the Renaissance faire. They continued to be comfortable and quite sturdy on the uneven, sandy and gravelly grounds. I am impressed.
