In May 2012, Duchess Kate attended a charity polo match to watch William play. She debuted a pair of Stuart Weitzman Minx espadrille wedges for the first time. Here’s a picture of her wearing the wedges at that event:

Kate Middleton & Stuart Weitzman:
The Duchess often wears Stuart Weitzman shoes, we think she purchases them from Russell and Bromley in London. (They appear to be one of the only stockists in the UK and we’ve seen photographs of her shopping in the store!)
We know that she owns Stuart Weitzman’s Corkswoon wedges:
