If I lived over on your side of the pond, I would get Sarah Juniper to make me shoes. Expensive, but oh so pretty. Otherwise, fewer people I know have trouble with shoes from Burnley & Trowbridge than from Fugawee, but I've worn both with no issues. Email Angela at B&T Burnley & Trowbridge Co. to ask her some questions. (You might be able to exchange them when you come to Williamsburg if they don'f fit quite like you want.) She has some good friends in England who do a lot of reenactments and living histories. She may be able to put you in touch with them to see possibly some of her shoes first hand.
