Description

This product is on Last Chance final sale and non-returnable.

Dunmore 18th century shoes trimmed in white are the ideal materials, silhouette, and heel to pair with your late 18th-century gown, from the Revolutionary War to the French Revolution.

Developed with input from Colonial Williamsburg, Dunmore is accurate for c. 1770 - 1790s, with a 2 inch / 5.08 cm Italian heel crafted after an extant shoe, a tapered toe, and soft toe box, and latchet closure.

Dunmore 18th century shoes are made of pebbled leather resembling original, historical Moroccan leather. We've trimmed the edges with white twill tape and covered our custom-made Italian heels in white leather, just like originals. Inside you'll find linen lining with our historic trades stamp. These are truly special, exquisite shoes available in this colorway for a limited time only.

Dunmores do not come with 18th-century shoe buckles. You may find our complete selection of 18th-century shoe buckles in the accessories section. Please see our page on how to fit your buckles, or watch our shoe buckle fitting video for more information.

Very small

These are incredibly small and tight. Size up one while size because you can’t return or exchange them.

Runs small

Love the quality of the shoes except they do run very small for a size 8. And since I couldn’t exchange them, I am stuck with them now.

Hi Helle!

The Dunmore fits most people true to size, but there's always going to be a small subset of the population that will find it either too small or too large, feet are just complex 3D objects that just don't conform to any standards, as much as we'd like them to. If you have any questions about fit or stretching the shoes to help them fit you better, please reach out to us at info@americanduchess.com

Superb!

The yellow and white Dunmore's were my first American Duchess purchase, bought to go with my yellow Georgian dress and clocked stockings. They totally completed the outfit! The fit is great but my husband and I did struggle with the buckles. We watched the video (many times) and printed out the instructions, but it was certainly a stressful experience to puncture such beautiful and expensive shoes! But all turned out well and I love them.

Dunmore review

Absolutely incredible. I bought a 1/2 size up so that I could add squishy pads under the balls of my foot and the heels and they feel amazing! I strongly recommend getting your true size if youre just going to wear them as is, my foot measures at 10 1/4 inches and if it werent for these thick pads plus stockings the shoes would be huge. According to the size chart I am a 10 but without pads I am a 9.5! Putting in the buckle was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. I asked for help and my husband was a lot more careful when watching the video, it only took 20 minutes (we were being super careful!) I love them just as much as my last AD shoes, and I will love my next pair just as much! I love AD so much!
