ABOUT MEMERY

Love these shoes!

I have wanted a pair of 1930s/40s oxfords for the longest time; they just have that wonderful classic style. These are perfection—well made and with a beautiful cognac color. I bought them earlier this summer and have been waiting for fall tights season to wear them. Sizing was a bit odd for me; I normally wear a US size 6 or 6.5 wide, but I went with the size chart and Mette’s recommendation to go with the 4 wide based on my actual foot length. It fits perfectly, maybe a smidge big even, but I plan to get a pair of her inserts just in case. Already planning my next purchase!

Comfy

This is my second pair of memery, and I've worn them daily for about a week, and they are very comfy.

Hi Kay.
We're happy to hear that you find them comfy and that this is your second pair from us. Best Ditte

Beautiful flattering shoes

Due to bad hips n feet forced to wear trainers. First shoes for years that look gorgeous, smart AND comfortable.

Hi Karen.
We're so glad to hear that you find them both beautiful and comfortable, especially considering your struggles with bad hips and feet.Best Ditte

Very comfortable vintage inspired shoes

Very nice and comfortable vintage inspired shoes. I ordered the wide style in EU37 ( usually wearing 38) and they fit perfectly.
Shipping was also very fast

Hi Joanna. Thank you for taking the time to leave a lovely review. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying your Emily shoes and that they are comfortable for you in the wide style. Best Ditte

Beautiful

Beautiful shoes. Very comfortable, except that I have a big toe that was broken in 1991. The toe is misshapen and sticks out enough to cause any normal shoe to rub the toe precisely on the protruding area of the bone. I’m trying to convince myself that I can wear them because they are so beautiful, and I’ve never had beautiful shoes like this. Very well made shoes!

Beautiful

The shoes are as described and very well made. Unfortunately they weren't right for me. Appreciate the quick and easy return process.

Beautiful and fit like a dream

These were a gift for a dear friend and she absolutely adores them. She said ‘they’re beautiful and fit like a dream’. Hers are a size 8 in a wide fit, I have a 7 wide - and they are the best fitting shoes I own. I’ve had mine for three years and they’re doing fine. A bit slippy on the soles when the pavement is wet, but this doesn’t detract from their quality in my opinion; a feature of 1940s shoes!

Hi Bianca.
Thank you for leaving such a wonderful review, it's lovely to hear your friend was just as fond of he rnew memery shoes as you are. Our shoes have leather soles, just like the original back them. When you have walked a bit in them the soles will scruff a bit and become much less slippery. Regularly treaitng the outer soles with leather care also helps.
