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.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Beautiful shoes!

I previously purchased Ruby in navy and cream colors. I patiently waited for Ruby in black to return in stock and immediately ordered them. I sincerely love this shoe. If Ruby ever appears in brown I will grab a pair. Thank you Mette for offering awesome shoes.

Hi Janice. How wonderful to hear you love our Ruby shoes so much! A brown color would be wonderful, thank you for your input! Best Ditte

Absolutely lovely

So I am now the proud owner of my fourth pair of Memery shoes and I am delighted. These are so carefully made, the red stitch on black is absolutely a winner, and for once, a pair of Mary Janes that are absolutely comfortable in every respect. Thank you Mette for your dedication to your wonderful project! Will be back :-)

Hi Irena. We're so pleased to hear your so fond of your fourth pair of memery shoes! Thank you for your kind words on our Ruby shoes. Best Ditte

Lovely shoe perfect for summer dresses

I have this pair already in blue and they are a perfect match to my 1930 style selfmade dresses. I wear them to the office and to events and even after hours they are still comfy. I have a narrow foot and usually need a small inlay sole but not here. So not for a wide foot I assume.

Hi Marlene. We're so pleased to hear you like your new Ruby shoes, it sounds like a perfect match your your dresses! Best Ditte

Delightful

These lovely shoes are so much more than everyday! Excellent design and quality. They are easy to wear and versatile, looking good with any length dress or skirt, and are ideal with trousers. They even blend well with jeans. So, an ideal shoe. I chose the cream colour which is a rich warm shade, I would so love the red ones! The delivery was timely and they were well packed, with a spare set of buttons and little a gauze bag for each shoe, I am delighted. Thank you.

Thank you for your kind words on our Ruby shoes! We're so glad to hear you find them both beautiful and versatile for many different outfits. Best Ditte

A beautiful option for ladies with big feet

Mette's shoes are a saviour for ladies with large feet! My 17-year-old has been suffering from confidence-crushing shopping experiences in which she felt like a freak because of her size 43. Most ladies' shoes are produced up to size 42 and we desperately looked not for just OK shoes but beautiful ones for a formal occasion. My idea was to turn to Skandinavian websites and we found Memery. My daughter is more than happy - tears dried, dress bought, confidence restored. Thank you so much🙏

We're so happy to hear we could help your daughter finally finding the right shoes! A true Cinderella story. May she have many happy moments in her new Ruby shoes. Best Ditte

I got these Mary Janes for swing dancing and they are very comfortable as dancing shoes. I was a bit worried that they wouldn't fit me after reading the comments, because my feet are on the wider side but surprisingly I had no problem even after 2 hours of non stop dancing. (Also, Ditte was very helpful and quick to respond to my emails, so thanks Ditte!) And they look adorable.
I have only two problems with the purchase (and one of them is not even about the shoes):
1. The strap of the left shoe was a bit too big for me and as it is not adjustable I had to take out the old thread and needle and sew off a part of the elastic band. It's not that big of a problem but it's not ideal either. I'm also having a lot of trouble every time I try to do the button. I just wish the strap was adjustable and had a buckle instead of a button.
2. If you are ordering them from Canada, beware of the customs duty / taxes. I used the government's online calculator and it gave me an estimation of $25 CAD, yet I had to pay over $90 CAD in customs. But obviously it is not this company's fault.

Hi. Thank you for you kind words on our Ruby shoes, we're so glad to hear they fit you perfectly for your swing dancing. The button closure does make it a bit harder to adjust, despite having the elastic band, but I'm glad to hear you found a solution. You're also always more than welcome to write to us, if you have any questions about the closeure of our shoes. The button will also become easier to open and close in time, as the leather softens up.
Customs to Canada can be a tricky one, and we're still working on it.
Again thank you for your review.
Best Ditte

Love Them!

I love the cream colored Ruby shoes I recently purchased. They are casual, yet a little dressy and complement many of my 1920's style dresses and my modern outfits. They are also very comfortable.

Thank you for your kind words. We are glad to hear that you love the cream Ruby shoes and that they complement your outfits perfectly, wether they're 1920's inspired or modern. Happy styling!
