A beautiful everyday walking shoe
The classic leather upper of these 30s/40s-style shoes has a sophisticated, hand-cut pattern, while the 4.5cm curved heel offers optimal comfort and stability suitable for daily wear. True to the original design from the era, the leather outsole allows for flexibility and breathability, while soft silicone inserts beneath the leather insole ensure excellent comfort.
Fun Fact: This style is used in the Oscar-nominated movie Mrs Harris Goes to Paris
The shoes are available in regular and wide sizes:
US: 4-12 - see size chart for measurements.
Shoes are handcrafted.
Materials: Full-grain leather, cotton laces and leather outsole and lining.
Color: Nougat Brown
Name: Emily
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.
Memery is a shoe brand that produces vintage-style shoes and knitwear inspired by the styles of the Edwardian era, the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, in contemporary sizes and with great comfort. Original vintage shoes are often worn out, narrow, and uncomfortable.
Memery shoes feature the same elegant designs and details as original vintage shoes - a factor that is very important to me and many enthusiasts. Additionally, thanks to the soft soles and breathable materials, my shoes offer exceptional comfort. Memery offers a wide range of sizes to accommodate everyone. So, whether you love vintage shoes or are simply seeking feminine, classic footwear, memery is an excellent choice. Our shoes are suitable for all occasions, including everyday wear, weddings, dancing (leather soles) and parties.
We have locations in the USA and Denmark, with free shipping available from the United States to destinations in the USA and Canada.

When I started dressing vintage everyday (a little over 2 years ago) it was so difficult to find shoes that were quality and authentic looking. Most of what I found was "expensive cheap garbage", meaning, a high price tag for something that doesn't last. These shoes are an investment, they are more expensive than a "fashion" shoe but WORTH every penny. The materials and craftsmanship are outstanding! I adore these shoes, they have the look of the era's that I love the 30's-50's and they go so well with dresses or slacks. I normally wear a US size 6.5 but there are no half sizes. Rather than guess, I had my daughter help me measure my foot and I fell in the 6 range. Measure your foot rather than just sizing up, a 7 would have been much too big for me. They fit very well, a little wide in the heel but I have narrow heels so this is always a problem for me. That was nothing that some heel inserts couldn't correct and they now have a nearly perfect fit with stockings, tights and socks. I'm still breaking them in but it's my understanding that once a pair of leather shoes are broken in they are the most comfortable shoe you will ever wear. I researched leather care so I can keep them nice. I know they will last me for many years to come if I take the time to keep them in good repair. In a world where things are generally "disposable" it's nice to know that these shoes are made to stand the test of time. I'm already planning to buy another pair of Memery shoes in the near future!
Hi Mary.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review of our Emily oxfords!
We completely understand the struggle of finding authentic vintage shoes, and we are so glad that we could provide you with a pair that you love. We appreciate your advice to measure your foot rather than just sizing up, as it can make a big difference in finding the perfect fit. We are happy to hear that our shoes are already becoming more comfortable as you break them in, and we hope that they will continue to be your go-to shoes for years to come.

Jeg har meget brede fødder og altid haft svært ved at finde pæne damesko, som jeg kunne passe. Memerys brede model blev valgt i str. udfra deres måleskema, og selvom jeg var noget skeptisk, blev jeg glædeligt overrasket. Skoene er præcist så fine som på billederne, de passer - og eneste ønske er måske, at en spadsere-sko kom med en sål, der var lidt mindre glat. Men elegant og velsyet sko i lækker kvalitet - og super service og kommunikation med Memery undervejs i leveringen, da leveringsfirmaet ved en fejl fik skoene på en lille omvej. Kan varmt anbefale at købe sko hos Memery.
1000 tak for den fine anmeldelse. Skønt at de brede sko er et perfekt match. Kh Mette
Har flere typer Memery sko, og elsker dem! Jeg har litt breie føtter, men klarer fint å «gå» til 38 med lave heler. Når høyden på hælene er 4,5 cm ser jeg at jeg med fordel kunne gått opp en str. Med alternativ wide hadde jeg ikke fått snøret dem ordentlig.
Alltid rask og god service

Hi Deborah.
Thank you for your kind words on our Emily shoes. Best Ditte
These shoes are extremely comfortable. They are very well-made and a beautiful deep brown colour. They are perfect vintage shoes and will complete any vintage outfit. As usual, Memery has come up trumps again!
Hi Sarah. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for our Emily oxfords. We are thrilled to hear that you find them comfortable and well-made. Best Ditte
These are lovely shoes- very comfortable. I have foot problems and the width and heel height are great. I wish you had more styles in wide! I’m planning on another pair!
Hi Silvia. Thank you for lovely review on our Emily shoes. We're so pelased to hear both the width and the heel height was comfortable to you. We hope to expand the selection of wide style shoes in the future, so keep an eye out! Best Ditte
I have real problems finding shoes to wear with dresses which are pretty and practical as I can no longer wear stilettos and I do lots of walking. These are very comfortable, practical and make me feel dressed. I though they were a bit big when I first tried them on but I decided to keep them as they tied and the smaller size would be too small. Glad I did as I’ve had no knee or back pain since wearing them. Although a little expensive, I will be having more as I would rather 1 pair of Memery shoes than 2 from somewhere else. Some pretty colours in the lower heel leather styles would be fantastic although I appreciate that might not be true to the eras of the shoes.
Dear Karena. We are thrilled to hear that you find our Emily shoes not only stylish, but also practical and comfortable for your daily walks. We understand the struggle of finding shoes that are both functional and fashionable, and we are happy to know that our shoes have helped alleviate any knee or back pain you may have experienced. We will definitely take your suggestion for more color options into consideration for future collections. Best Ditte

Did company to deal with.
Thank you for your kind reveiw, we're very happy to hear you were both satisfied with your new shoes and our customer service. Best Ditte
OMG I love these shoes! They are expensive, for me anyway, but got them on sale so that helps, but are worth every penny. I love them and definitely will be ordering again.
Hi Linda. How wonderful to hear the you find the Emily shoes worth every penny. Thank you so much for your kind review. Best Ditte
I had been admiring these shoes for a very long time and finally decided to take the plunge and order a pair. I am usually a size 7 or 8 and have wide feet so finding shoes to fit can be difficult. I ordered these in a size 8 with a pair of the shoe sizers. They fit like a dream. They are super comfortable, have the perfect heel height (I suffer with chronic pain and often have issues with walking and these are great for the pain), a beautiful colour, and lovely details. They really elevate my 1940s outfits. They're my favourite pair of shoes!
Hi Charlotte.
Thank you for your wonderful review of our Emily shoes. We're so happy to hear you finally found comfortable shoes that's also pretty and they have become your favorita pair of shoes. Best Ditte
