Fabulous shoes

Fabulous shoes, reminiscent of the tan colour shoes with thick heels we all coveted in the 1970’s. The thing is with these shoes though, is they are comfortable. They’re perfectly balanced and the leather is structured yet gentle on the feet. I sized up and found they fit perfectly. I’ll be wearing these for years, they’re very versatile and truly can be dressed up or down. Style them with flared jeans for a retro look!

I love them!

These boots are amazing! They're incredibly soft, super comfy, and have a timeless, elegant look. Perfect for chilly days, perfect for luxuriating in sensuality.

I am in love!

I received these as a Christmas gift…

I received these as a Christmas gift after searching for this style in just the right color of brown. These are perfect and the black sole makes them so versatile and can be worn with all of my black pieces. I usually wear a USA size 8 but purchased these in a 39 to have room for a heavier sock and I’m glad I did. Might need to buy the black now. They are beautifully made and the leather inside and out is so soft and supple. Great quality.

Great purchase

Really pleased and impressed with this perfect shoe! I was surprised that the no break in time required was indeed true, I get bad blisters, but did not with these. Will be purchasing more.

Boyfriend's mum absolutely loved it!

Such a beautiful design!

My boyfriend's mother absolutely loved receiving this as a gift and said it's such a wonderful experience opening up the box as it was packaged so beautifully.

The shoes arrived so quickly and are divine. She can't wait to wear them out dancing!

Loves these so much

Loves these so much! Comfortable right away. I ended up exchanging for a larger size, which was such an easy experience. I really appreciate being able to exchange/return easily since that is not always the case with other companies. 10/10 recommend

I have worn them every day since they arrived. With or without socks, they are by far the most comfortable footwear I own. And they look so great with everything. The craftsmanship is the finest, too. This is the second pair of boots I have purchased from Dear Frances, and both are amazing!

Chic, stylish and Uber comfortable

They have good quality shoes! I could walk miles and miles with these shoes and at the same time, they’re so fashionable too! I get so many compliments when I wear them! I have the white ones and I just wipe them down with baby wipes when I need to clean them! I love that it’s made in Italy! 🇮🇹 my favorite pair of ballet flats and they’re so chic and stylish!

Park Boot

I first bought a pair of Park Boots in 2019. When it was time to purchase another pair there was no hesitation with a repurchase.

The quality, style, fit and comfort are unmatched.

My favourite new boots.

I feel like I have nothing on my feet ; they are so soft and comfortable. They are elevated everyday boots, simply styled but perfect and not too chunky. The boot length means they sit perfectly under all my jeans and they look great with skirts too.

Perfect Suede Bootie!

These just came (so quickly!) and they are stunning! I got the brown suede in my usual size and they fit perfectly. I can’t wait to wear them :) Such a nice heel height for day and night.

I love these shoes so much!

I love these shoes so much. I bought them in three colors. They are unbelievably comfortable and absolutely timeless in style. I also bought the Joss loafer, which I also love for its comfort and timelessness so happy to have discovered Dear Frances shoes.
