What is a vintage shoe?
1 Answer

A vintage shoe refers to various footwear styles that were commonly worn decades ago. Shoes that are deemed vintage are at least 20 years old, and “vintage-style shoes” are inspired by styles that originated at least two decades ago or longer. Also referred to as retro shoes, today’s vintage-style shoes are often reproduced in mass quantities. Find a collection of authentic vintage shoes and other footwear on 1stDibs.
