Rainey Vintage Lace-Up Boots (Purple)
Description

Step into the Rainey Lace-Up Boots, an everyday walking boot well-suited to any dandy wardrobe. Designed in collaboration with Dandy Wellington, these buttery-soft Balmoral boots feature a fitted ankle, relaxed ball of foot, and the Dandy logo stamp of sartorial approval on the heels.
The Rainey is dedicated to the “Mother of the Blues” vocalist and bandleader Ma Rainey, a queer trailblazer who performed all over America influencing the likes of Louis Armstrong and Bessie Smith. Her extravagant style and deep gravelly voice earned her a recording contract with Paramount where she recorded 94 titles.
The Raineys are made in top-grade calf leather with a soft twill lining and leather facings. They come with full leather soles with welt detailing and an adjustable lace-up instep and short ankle.
Ankle Circumference (Fully Laced) - 8 in - 11 in / 20 cm - 27.5 cm
Shaft Height - 5 in / 12.5 cm
This design is also available in men's sizing, called Noble. There is crossover between the men's and women's size ranges. Please note that women's standard width is "B" and men's standard width is "D."

These boots are so stylish and comfortable!!!!! I love them
I love my dancing boots! So beautifully made.
I love the green Duchess boots. They fit perfect.
These shoes came relatively quickly, nicely packaged. The shoes are incredibly comfortable and fit true to size. Very well made, I’m very impressed and will make future purchases!
I've been admiring American Duchess shoes for Quite a long time and when I saw that the Rainys were back I had to get them. Yes, they are pricey (luckily they were on sale when I got them!) But I believe in the Vimes boots theory and I intend to make these shoes last.
I've worn them now several times and always enjoyed them. Most recently, I wore them to my Regionals Academic Decathlon competition!! Meaning that I wore them for about for 7 hours and walked around a lot during that time, up and down stairs. They were very comfortable the entire time AND (bonus) they matched my silk dinosaur tie PERFECTLY. Acdec is 1920s themed this year so while nobody else understood the intricacies of my choice to wear these, I DID and it was AWESOME. I would recommend these boots.
