The story

Why we picked it
I was drawn to these platforms for their unapologetic disco-era boldness - the multicolour leather and genuine platform construction are exactly the kind of archival detail that makes a 1970s footwear piece worth preserving. Five decades on, they still carry the kinetic energy of the decade that made height and colour a political act. This is the sort of piece I set aside for collectors who understand that footwear can be a primary document of cultural history.

These original 1970s leather platform heels bring genuine disco-era glamour to any vintage footwear collection, crafted in a bold multicolour palette that reflects the maximalist, colourful energy of the decade. As an original piece rather than a reproduction, the construction and detailing carry the true character of authentic 1970s design.

The platform silhouette adds real height and presence, staying true to the era's love of dramatic, statement-making footwear that dominated disco floors and street style alike. The genuine leather construction ensures a solid, lasting build, giving these platforms the kind of durability that has allowed them to survive five decades in wearable condition.

Sized US Women's 7, these platforms offer an authentic slice of 1970s fashion history.

We do not sell replicas or knowingly feature counterfeit items.

Are items one-of-a-kind?

Yes. All pieces on Foundry are unique, one-of-a-kind finds. Once an item is sold, it will not be restocked.

Why do I purchase through a third party?

Foundry operates as a curated marketplace and discovery platform. Purchases are completed through trusted third-party platforms like eBay to ensure secure checkout, buyer protection, and accurate real-time inventory.

When you click “Buy on X,” you’ll be redirected to complete your purchase directly on the listing.

All items are vintage or pre-owned and may show natural signs of wear consistent with age. We do our best to note any significant flaws or imperfections in each product description.

We believe these details are part of what makes vintage special.

How often do you release new items?

New pieces are added regularly as they’re sourced. Because inventory is limited and one-of-a-kind, availability changes often.

WHY VINTAGE?

It Already Exists

Vintage isn’t “produced” it’s rediscovered.
Choosing vintage reduces waste, overproduction, and the environmental cost of creating something new.

Quality You Can Feel

Most vintage was made with heavier fabrics, real hardware, and craftsmanship that’s rare today.
It’s why these pieces last decades, not seasons.

Style With a Story

Vintage means no mass drops, no repeats, no algorithms deciding what you wear.
Each piece is one-of-a-kind which is why it is so special.
