    Beautiful and comfortable and environmentally friendly

    These shoes were worth waiting for, they are beautiful and very comfortable. I was delighted to be able to order one shoe a size larger than the other, this is the first time both my feet have felt comfortable. The service I got was so friendly and helpful, when I sent back the first pair of shoes, Marre suggested that the shoes could be made with half a size difference as they were being specially made anyway. It is a bonus to know that I am helping the environment by reducing over-production as well. I will be saving up for my next pair.

    The best work shoe there ever was

    If you don’t own a pair of these already as your everyday flats for work/ life in general, you’re missing out. I’ve struggled to find stylish/ comfortable flats which I can wear daily to work for the longest time but I’ll never look back after this!! Do yourself a favour, it’s worth the splurge
