READ ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS SHOE HERE
We set out to make a proper women's line years ago but it wasn't until we came across the book "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" that the path forward cleared: What would Elizabeth Bennet (the zombie-slaying iteration that is) need in a shoe?
Well, good looks in an everyday yet semi-formal setting of course. Something appropriate for a wedding, yet also sturdy enough for the fraught, zombie-filled carriage ride to the reception. Something comfortable that could be worn for hours, even days, at a time. Good support. Strong yet flexible, and, given the vagaries of apocalyptic life, easily repaired and completely resolable when needed. And something that would look better the more abuse it was given.
Thanks, Mr. Darcy, but we got this.
This pair is a one off sample, and, as such, is not perfect. But gosh it's close. This is reflected in the price. Please contact us if you have any questions.
