- Unit price
- /per
These precision-crafted everyday leather boots pay homage to the classic designs of the 1910s and 1920s.
Featuring a spacious, round toe and a 3.5 cm high heel, the shape and height of the heel offer optimal comfort and stability. The boots, which feature wide ribbon shoelaces, have leather soles and a soft sheep leather insole—genuine to the original boots of this period.
The shoes are available in regular and wide sizes:
US: 4-12 - see size chart for measurements.
Materials: Full-grain leather, cotton, leather sole, and long laces.
Color: Black
Name: Britta
Which size is best for me? I recommend following the size chart located under the "Choose Size" box.
Wide or Regular - Which width to choose if both are available? Wide styles are two sizes up in width compared to the regular size. I recommend choosing wide shoes if you usually buy wide-style shoes. My wide styles are an EEE size.
Try at home is my concept. I want you to be happy with your new memery shoe.
Exchange: If you wish to exchange for another size, please use my Return Center for easy and free US returns.
Refund: If you want to request a refund - no worries! I offer a money-back guarantee. Simply return the shoes through my Return Center, and I will process the refund.

These boots are really beautifully made. They are very comfortable to wear and I love the look of them when they are on. They go equally well with dresses or trousers. One drawback however is that they take so long to put on and take off. Not having a side zip means that you have to open an awful lot of the laces to put them on and remove them, so they are not good if you are in a hurry! I have narrow feet but it still takes me quite a while to put them on.
The other thing I would like advice about is that they feel very slippery in wet conditions and I worry about falling. Can you advise about some way of treating the sole so that they can be made more secure? I love the boots but these drawbacks mean I have to really think before I wear them whether the weather is going to be wet or frosty (as they may not be safe) and how long I will need to leave to put them on and take them off.
Thank you.
Hi Barbara. Thank you for taking your time to leave a review on our Britta boots, I'm happy to hear you find them stylish and comfortable. Our boots are made from original design, which means no zipper. At first they can take a while to put on and off, but in time it will become easier as you get the hang of it. We also have a video on our instagram and facebook with tips and trick on how to lace up boots. Regarding the sole, as soon as you start walking on asphalt and gravel. it will roughen up and less slippery. I do know some of our customers have chose to take them to a cobbler and have them add a rubber sole underneath, this is easily done and usually doesn't cost much.

very comfortable
That's wonderful to hear. Best Ditte
The boots are comfortable in the back and ankle area, but the inner part of the toe box presses on my foot while walking. I think the shape will adjust with time, I will also try to push it gently from within up to make it not press so much. Other than this, the boots look very beautiful and I am happy with my purchase.
Hi Victoria.
Thank you for your kind wrods on our Britta boots, it's lovely to hear. Our boots are made of leather, so in time they will expand a bit and soften up. Best Ditte
Utterly divine boots.
Hi Sally-Ann. That's great to hear, thank you for your kind review. Best Ditte
Ohhhh, friends. Let me tell you, these boots are an absolute delight. After Dr Martens broke my heart one too many times, I set off to find a new black boot that lasts long and looks good doin' it. The search led me here and I couldn't be happier. I finally get my mom's love of shoes.
The first pair I ordered were just a touch too tight around the bridge/sides of my feet and I worried that I would pop the seams in the process of wearing in the leather. I didnt want to ruin such beautiful work! But also! I wanted these boots! Ditte was very patient and helpful as I blabbed way too much via email and got the whole thing sorted. I had initially ordered an 8 but after re-measuring myself and Ditte's advice, we exchanged them for a 7 wide.
I was worried about the new size, since I've usually only ever gotten 9 or 8.5's before, but they fit like a dream! There's a bit of tightness, but in exactly the way you want new leather shoes to be tight, knowing they'll soon become perfection and you won't have to suffer during the process.
Chef's kiss!
Dear Trixie. Thank you for taking the time to leave a lovely review for our Britta boots. I'm very happy I was able to help you find the perfect size for you. I hope you continue to enjoy your boots and please don't hesitate to reach out if you need any further assistance. Best Ditte
I had bought some evening shoes from Memery which were amazingly comfortable so I was surprised that the boots were not as comfortable. I feel like they need breaking in particularly they are hard around my ankles.
Hi there! Thank you for your review on our Britta boots. Leather boots do tend to require some breaking in, especially around the ankles. We suggest wearing them around the house for a few hours with some slightly thicker socks in to help soften the leather. If you continue to experience discomfort, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service, we'll be happy to help. Best Ditte
Very comfortable and nice!
Hi Marie-Louise. That's wonderful to hear, thank you for your review on our Britta boots. Best Ditte
So nice to finally find proper quality shoes. They are a bit tight around the foot, but since it’s real leather, it’s just a matter of time and then they will fit like a glove. Wow!
Hi Sylvia. Thank you for your review, we're happy to hear that you are loving your new Britta boots. As you mentioned, real leather can take a bit of time to break in, but then you'll have the most comfortabel boots, molded to your feet. Best Ditte
They fit great! I’m so glad they make smaller sizes!
Hi Lauren. How wonderful to hear, we're glad that our smaller sizes fit you well! Best DItte
Mitt andre par( annen farge) Beste skoene, og veldig behagelige å gå inn. Brukes til dans og ute.
Hi Nina.
We are so happy to hear that this is your second pair and that you find them to be the best shoes for both dancing and everyday wear. Best Ditte
