High-quality hand-made boots with a wide space for toes.
My wife got some before a tramping trip through the UK many years ago and they’re still going strong.
The website says they never go on sale, but they’re 25% off for the next few days.
From the site:
“Duckfeet in Denmark have been making shoes by hand for over forty years. Duckfeet are simple and functional, typical of mid-20th century Danish design.
Duckfeet’s foot-formed, naturally wide fitting design allows room for the toes, and for air to reach the feet. Leather midsoles and uppers give the skin space to breathe and naturally transport moisture away from the foot.
DUCKFEET AUSTRALIA
Welcome to The Natural Shoe Store. We are the licensed importer and distributor of Duckfeet for Australia and New Zealand.
We first saw Duckfeet on a friends’ feet, everything about these shoes caught our attention; the quality, the production process, the values of the company, and the design.
We set up shop in Fitzroy ten years ago and started importing the Duckfeet range. Initially, a window on Gertrude Street directed customers to our ‘hidden’ shop, but over the years we’ve grown steadily busier. We developed our following in an old shoe polish factory, and while our store has evolved and moved over the years, the quality and simplicity of Duckfeet remains the same.”
The prices are eyewatering!
