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 dark green patent leather, has such a vintage look about it, with a subtle dappling of the shades of green. 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.

My second pair of Dusty’s and they are one of my favourite pairs of shoes. Stylish and ultra mod. The heels have a fun pattern which set them off from the rest. If you’re looking for something different grab a pair of Dusty’s.

I bought these for my daughter who was supposed to be buying one pair of shoes for our recent wedding (she chose the pink/grey dusty for that – see our review). These weren’t quite right to go with her bridesmaid dress, but they are so gorgeous that she had to keep them. The colour of these shoes is a forest (or British racing) green and they look even better in reality than in pictures. The shoes are comfortable and good for wider feet (though having said that, I have smaller and narrower feet than my daughter and my Dusty shoes fit me perfectly too). The leather is soft and they do respond well to your feet. I was a bit nervous of buying on-line, but the advice given to go down a size is spot on…and it is very easy to return shoes if you need to. Delivery was always immediate and all communications dealt with quickly. Thank you Mod Shoes – we’ll be back!

Saw an advert on Facebook for these shoes in a different colour. Had to have them! I ordered on Sunday Evening through DPD (I was given a choice) and they arrived today (Tuesday). They do look black and green in the picture but they are actually all green which I can’t complain about because it doesnt mention black in the description and I do like them in green (commenting in case other people think the same and are disappointed). I posted them in a facebook group I’m in and I think all my friends are going to end up wearing the same shoes…… got my eye on a few other styles too.

These were my first purchase from Modshoes. I loved them so much I went on to buy 3 more pairs of Dusties! I’d never before owned a pair of shoes that combines comfort and style the way these do.

I have two pairs of Dusty shoes … antique green and also in red. Absolutely love these vintage style shoes. They go with dresses and trousers. So comfortable and whenever I wear them people want to know where I got them 😁👍 Need a third, fourth and fifth pair now 🤗

I got these beautiful shoes for my graduation at Glasgow School of Art. Green is my favourite colour so it’s amazing when I find a pair of classy shoes like these. The checked heels add that extra unique twist. I’m absolutely in love with them, received lots of compliments about them & best of all they are very comfortable.
