The Dusty
These stylish shoes have a real retro feel and we absolutely love them ! Called “The Dusty” after 60’s icon Dusty Springfield, we feel that these gorgeous shoes will suit those looking for the elegance of 40’s, 50’s and 60’s styling. They look amazing with a dress, but work equally well with jeans or casuals. The Dusty really is the “go to” shoe for any occasion.
If you are looking for a shoe that combines elegance with all day comfort, then the Dusty is the one for you. The heel height is 3 inches, but because of the sturdy block shape, you just don’t feel that “wobble” that makes a more spindly high heel a scary prospect !
You will see from the numerous fab reviews how much our customers love their Dustys. In fact they can prove addictive, many customers come back again and again for more colours to add to their collection.
As far as sizing is concerned, the Dusty is fairly true to normal UK size. If you are between sizes, then probably best to go down rather than up. Width-wise they are generous and should accommodate most widths of feet.
The burgundy patent leather, has such a classic look about it, especially when combined with the contrast black piping. Notice the check detail on the heel, which give the Dusty it’s iconic quirky look. Take a look at the pictures below, and you can see just how unique and beautiful these shoes are.
The shoes are made for us in Spain, by a small, exclusive company that specialise in small runs and retro style.

1st time I wore them was on a girls night out,got lots of compliments about them and didn’t wake up with sore feet the next day even after test driving them on the dance floor. Well worth the wait. Beautiful, quality made shoes.

I fell in love with these shoes online and was slightly worried about what they would be like in real life. In fact, they exceeded my expectations – beautifully made, comfortable, really eye-catching. I’d have pairs in about 5 different colours if I could. I love the heel particularly. Highly recommended.

Lovely shoes, look great and so comfortable. Delivery was quick. Very pleased – thank you.

I don’t want to leave a review because I don’t want everyone knowing how fantastic these shoes are and then buying them! They are so comfortable to wear, I have them on all day and I’m on my feet all day and still they stay comfy! I love these so much I have 5 pairs in different colours. You definitely need a size smaller than usual as many reviewers say. You really won’t be disappointed with these shoes. The only problem is you may need to take out a loan to buy all the colours if you become addicted to them like me!

I bought these shoes as an accessory to my 1940s outfits – they look so glamorous, are really comfortable and make me feel so lady-like. Indeed, many ladies compliment me on them and ask me where I got them from, so I have probably contributed to Modshoes selling many more pairs!

I’ve bought three pairs for the wife she absolutely loves them will definitely purchase more for her

These are so very beautiful and so very comfy! I have been showing these off to everyone! I’ve just ordered my second pair of Dustys this morning in the new red colour with all red heel, and it looks as though I will be starting a shoe collection! 😊

Love love love my first pair of mod shoes. The Dusty in burgundy red is sooo stylish, really comfortable to wear and I have had loads of comments about them . Your advice to go down if your normally a half size was spot on. Thank you mod shoes. Just ordered my second pair .

Lovely comfortable shoes. The burgundy colour is just as it looks on my screen. As other reviewers have said, half a size smaller than usual fits perfectly (6 instead of 6 1/2). I have never been able to wear such a high heel but the soles are nicely soft, the heel doesn’t wobble and the slightly wider fitting means my toes don’t feel so squashed. I hope the black ones will be available in my size soon!

If you’re looking for a pair of shoes that make a statement, these are it! Love the colour combination.
Laura –
Love these shoes, so comfortable and easy to walk in if you are like me and not used to heels!! Been well admired by others mainly due to the unusual heel.
Bridie Waterhouse –
Beautiful shoes, definitely make any outfit appear retro and the colour works with most outfits as well. The service was lovely and they came very quickly, I’ve had them for a few months now and they’ve lasted very well

These shoes are gorgeous and very comfortable despite the high heel. They are very striking and stand out from what others wear. The unusual heel and these shoes attract attention and lots of compliments!

Stylish shoes, size 5 fit true to size. Brought them for a Peaky Blinders event, had lots of lovely complements. Will definitely be purchasing some other colours as they are very comfortable.
