Bronte Slippers Wide (Black Cherry)
Description
This product is on Last Chance final sale and non-returnable.
Soft and supple Bronte slippers are beautiful reproductions of 19th century originals. These perfectly period slippers are versatile for late Regency, Romantic era, and early-to-mid-Victorian costumes- and, they will fit perfectly into your contemporary wardrobe! Bronte features a flat, 0.25"/0.6 cm heel, a soft, square toe, and smooth leather uppers with a cotton lining. Interior lacing loops allow for ribbons to be laced through in a variety of attractive arrangements. Like the 19th century original slippers, Bronte has a soft toebox, for a close fit.

Design & Production
I like the look of the Shoes and even the size is right. But for this size you need more ore different anchor points for the ribbons. I did not find any lacing option to hold the shoe in place without slipping and sliding. And if I lace it up very tight, the shoe deforms in an very unpleasant way
Happy to assist! That's not an issue with the ribbons or placement; that's an indication that you've got the wrong size or width. The Bronte should fit well *without* the ribbons and not gap or slip; if it does, that means you haven't got the right size. We're always happy to advise on fit questions, just reach out to us at info@americanduchess.com to chat!
Endlich Schuhe die von der Weite passen. Und toll aussehen.
Sehr zufrieden
A lovely colour, and suitable for wide feet too. I’m really looking forward to wearing them
These shoes are beautiful: love the deep dark cherry red shade. In wide option these shoes in 9W are little too big for me (I usually order 9 or 9,5 depending on shoes),but nothing that little magic in shoe maker can't fix (adding small pads inside of the back part of the shoes)!
We're glad those are working for you! The Bronte can be a tricky fit if too wide; unlike a boot or oxford that comes up over your instep or ankle and helps keep the shoe held close to your foot, the top of the Bronte is very open and if the shoe is too wide or too big, you may walk right out of them! You'll want to be sure to pad the shoe well enough to keep it on your foot without the laces. Keep in mind that the laces are decorative and are not meant to take the full stress of keeping a too-big/too-wide shoe on your foot. You want the shoes to fit comfortably snug without the laces, keeping in mind that the leather will soften and stretch somewhat with wear.
