Description

Renoir Victorian Button Boots offer sturdy sophistication with the perfect mid-Victorian silhouette. Period-correct for the late 1850s to the 1880s, Renoir features all-leather materials, true side-buttoning closure, and the comfort you need for all-day re-enactments.

These mid-Victorian and Bustle Era boots have square toes, a short heel molded from an original, and an attractive scalloped edge and top, making them practical yet feminine, and ideal for a fashionable Victorian lady.

Wear Renoirs for historical events, or add a bit of incognito history to your cottagecore, dark academia, or historybounding outfits. Renoirs have appeared on screen in "Victoria," and "Alias Grace."

You will need a button hook to easily and quickly get your boots on. Button hooks are sold separately.

Beautiful and comfy

I was so excited to receive my Renoir boots !
I'm glad that I ordered a half size up like was recommended. They fit perfectly and feel very comfy :-)
The heel is not too low and certainly not too high and that's great for me because I can't walk on too high heels for long because of back and other health issues..

And they look AWESOME!! :-D

My new favourite boots

These are absolutely as great as I expected. They are stunning, very comfortable, and easy to walk in. They are also very quick to put on once you get used to using a button hook.

I only have two small issues with these shoes. The leather soles are impractical for me, as I live in a fairly wet area with many gravel roads. I will definety be replacing the soles with rubber soles to make them better suited for my environment.

My other issue is that my feet start sliding into the open space in the toe of the shoe when I'm wearing thin socks or stockings, blistering my toes when I walk longer distances.

Otherwise these are everything I could wish for, and I reccomend them. I will definetly be buying from American Duchess again.

Finally a reason to go outside

I've been eyeing up these boots for months and finally decided to treat myself. I arranged to have lunch with a friend and, after a number of things going wrong, I was about to cancel when the boots stopped me. I HAD to show my friend the boots, so I suppressed the social anxiety and got my boots on. Had a wonderful time, very comfy feet despite me not actually wearing shoes for about 3 years. Literally would still be housebound without these boots.

Glorious footwear

These boots are my best purchase this year so far. The construction is impeccable and the fit is amazing. I chose a half-size up than what I normally wear as I wanted to wear thicker socks and that was the perfect choice. I can absolutely wear them with thin socks as well, so I would suggest going up half a size if you have very arched feet that are a little wider below the toes. As with all American Duchess footwear, these boots are worth every single penny. I definitely see myself wearing these every day for spring and fall - they are a delightful addition to any history-bounding wardrobe.
