Description

If you're craving cuteness, the Ghillies are the perfect shoe for you. Versatile, comfortable, and adorable, these vintage lace-ups draw inspiration from the traditional ghillie dance shoe, and are reproduced closely from the 1943 Montgomery Ward Catalog. 

Made in all leather with leather soles, the Ghillies come with two sets of laces for different looks. A sculptural, round toe is paired with our stable 1.25 inch / 3.2 cm heel. These are an all-day every-day shoe offering an elevated and unique look perfect for the 1930s through the 1960s.

Good staple

I'm between a women's 11 and 12 and don't have a particularly wide foot, but one instep is higher than the other. I purchased the 12 here and need to add an insole. The tan is slightly darker in-person than it appears on my screen, but that's ok. Unfortunately, the laces do not stay tied. Once I get replacement laces, I think these will be a good staple in my closet.

Beautiful well-made shoe.

I love these shoes, but my feet don't. I had to order a larger size but the toe box is just not wide enough for my feet. The shoe is entirely of leather and the leather inside is very soft. I am very mad at my feet.

We're sorry these aren't working out for you! The Ghillies are regular width shoe, so if you need a wide or extra wide width shoe it could be that they're not a good match for your feet. Feel free to reach out to our team at info@americanduchess.com with any fit questions about stretching or other potential mods, or see our returns page!

So cute!

These shoes are so well made and comfortable. I am usually a 6.5/7 US W but the 6 fit me fine. The leather inside is very soft and the heel doesn’t seem like it will rub.

Beautiful shoes

I bought the Ghillies in my normal size. I found that they were a little short, so I sent them back and will order one full size larger. I have one other pair of American Duchess shoes, the Bessie boots, and they fit perfectly in my normal size. That’s why I thought the Ghillies would fit. What fabulous shoes this company offers! I’ll update on the Ghillies soon.

Really cute!

I got these on pre-order and they were well worth the wait. Super cute I don’t do very well with pointy shoes so these will be a cute alternative to my 18th century history, bounding phase. I do feel that they run a tad bit small though, so you may want to order up a half size.
