"Charlotte" vintage-inspired shoes by memery

If you love history-bounding, vintage styles, or just cute shoes, these are for you. These are "Charlotte" in Cognac from memery, a Danish vintage shoe company. From their website: "This shoe is made of genuine natural leather and with leather soles, leather lining and leather insoles. Just like old vintage shoes from back in history. The material is strong, breathable and flexible. It is very important for memery that the products maintain all these qualities and keep the right true vintage look." I was so looking forward to these shoes, but they are too snug on my feet and instead of returning them, I had hoped to break them in a little as full leather shoes are often snug when new. Sadly, I have to admit de'feet.' Only worn two or three times, so wear on the soles is minimal. The rest of the shoes are still in pristine condition. Size UK 41 or US 10, but fits more like a 9 or 9.5. Come with matching grosgrain laces (shown) and brown string laces.
