Sales Post: American Duchess Kensingtons
Edited to add: They are now on hold for Ruth V!
I am selling my first generation American Duchess Kensington shoes. They were slightly too small for me from the start, and have not stretched enough to make wearing them comfortable (my feet naturally fall between US 9.5 to 10.5 in size, so it's tough to tell what size to get when buying online). They would probably fit someone with average US 9.5 feet, or perhaps slightly larger. In most other American Duchess shoes, I am a US 10 or 10.5. I have only been able to wear these with thin stockings and they are still tight.
They have been worn multiple times, but in my opinion have a number of years left in them. I have provided photographs to show the surface wear. There are also some extra holes punched in one latchet, because I had to move the buckle to be less tight. These holes do not show when being worn, nor have they affected how well the shoes fit. I have provided a photo of these holes. The heel caps are still firmly attached. Buckles are not included.
Originally these were $99, and the current versions retail for $150. I'm asking $43, plus shipping. (For reference, it looks like shipping within the US will cost $10-$17, depending on the distance. I'm located in Maryland.) US buyers preferred, but I will ship elsewhere if the buyer accepts the increased shipping cost and the risks of customs snags. I accept PayPal. Thanks for looking!
