Mols
Mols is a classic trans-seasonal style that looks great with socks, tights, pants, skirts, or nothing at all. Mols strikes the perfect balance between a sandal and a closed toe shoe, offering comfort and security with an open feel and flattering aesthetic.
Duckfeet in Denmark have been making shoes by hand for over forty years. Duckfeet are simple and functional, typical of mid-20th century Danish design. Duckfeet’s foot-formed design allows room for the toes to spread naturally as you walk, and for air to reach the feet. Leather midsoles and uppers breathe and transport moisture away from the foot. We use leather because it’s strong and long-lasting, but also flexible – allowing the shoe to move with and mould to your individual foot shape.
No two pairs of Duckfeet are exactly alike. Every pair of shoes is treated individually during production, the natural tanning and processing by hand allows for subtle variations in the leather. These variations are highlighted by the particular way you wear them, which imbues each shoe with personality, your story, for your life.
Mols features premium full grain, 100% leather uppers, insole, and leather midsole. Our non-toxic, vegetable tanned leather is manufactured according to strict environmental standards. It is drum dyed using high quality, non-toxic dyes and specially treated to be water and dirt repellant. Using traditional European Veldtschoen construction the upper is built up by hand over a flat last then the midsole is double stitched to our 100% natural crepe rubber outsole. Every pair of Duckfeet comes into contact with many experienced hands before they are placed in their box and fitted to your feet.

At Duckfeet, we celebrate the notion that well-made products improve with age, and we believe taking the time to care for things you love is good for the soul. If you care for your shoes regularly, you will enjoy them longer. Your shoes, wallet, and the planet will be grateful for it.
Taking pride in and caring for the things we own helps minimise waste by ensuring our belongings stay with us longer. We’ve seen customers who have had their Duckfeet going on 20 years. Duckfeet are durable, meaning your shoes wear in, instead of wearing out, though a little bit of love goes a long way in keeping them in good condition.
Leather care
We recommend that you apply a thin layer of Duckfeet leather care at regular intervals, about once a month. Don’t use too much at one time. It’s better to use a little less a bit more often. Let the cream sit a few minutes and polish afterwards with a soft cloth.
Use a shoehorn when you put your shoes on – they are easier to get on and the back will not be destroyed. Untie or unzip the shoes or boots completely when you remove them – so they are easier to pull off. It’s better for the shoes than trampling on them!
Sole care
Crepe rubber soles can become firm when stored at low temperatures. We recommend storing your shoes out of direct sunlight at a temperature between 20-25C. If the soles become hard, you can place the shoes on a warm radiator, until the crepe rubber is soft again.
Avoid contact with solvents, the rubber cannot tolerate it and can dissolve. Also avoid storing them in direct sunlight or exposure to prolonged, excessive exposure to heat, such as in your car during a heatwave and this can also cause the soles to become soft and tacky. If this does happen, we recommend a resole to rectify an issue.
Water
Store your shoes in a dry and airy place. If your shoes become wet, fill them with crumpled newspaper and let them air-dry. When they are completely dried, you can again apply leather conditioner or shoe cream. Leather shoes should not be dried on a radiator – the leather becomes dried out and porous.
If the leather gets water stains, take a cloth and make the whole shoe slightly damp. Treat the leather afterwards as described above. It is best to change your shoes daily. Give your Duckfeet a day’s rest, so they can release the foot’s moisture and dry thoroughly.
Dirt
If the shoes get dirty, clean them with a damp cloth. Let the shoes dry thoroughly and treat the leather again with shoe cream or leather conditioner. Be attentive to edges and seams, which should also be treated to maintain the leather and protect your shoes against water.
Most of our styles can be resoled, you can purchase a resole from us when required.

I have just bought a pair of green Mols. They are so practical!!!!
They fit perfectly with socks, tights or bare feet.
They look great with jeans, pants, skirts and dresses.
The fact that they can be resoled means they are good for the planet and will last forever.
This is my third pair of Duckfeet, as I have transitioned to only wearing Duckfeet! I love my Himmerland's and Roskilde's but have to say that my Mols are my favourites. We live in NZ and can only order Duckfeet through Australia. When at my daughter's school last week another mother came up and asked "are those Duckfeet?". Never met her before but we bonded over my Duckfeet. She had been looking at the website for a while, but was worried about sizing. She tried mine on for size and off she went to order some. New shoes and new friends. Duckfeet ❤️
These are actually for my birthday on 10th December. But when they arrived I sneakily did a try on 🤭 Love them & can't wait to wear them❤️ I'll be certainly tagging you on Instagram when I do 🙌
I love rhe syle and colour of these shoes so much. Admired them for ages then bought my first pair in a 40 after a couple of months trying to break them in I conceded and boight this next size up which don't rub and I can happily wiggle my toes inside.
Although it takes a little while to wear them in, it takes years to wear them out and they complement most outfits.
