Between two rows? Take the larger size. If your feet tend to swell, or you like a roomier fit, go up half a size.

How to measure your foot

  1. Stand on a sheet of paper on a hard floor, in the socks you will wear with your boots.
  2. Mark the back of your heel and the tip of your longest toe. Hold the pen straight up.
  3. Measure between the two marks. Do both feet and use the longer one.

Tip: measure in the afternoon. Feet swell a little through the day.

Standard or Wide?

Wide is the same length as Standard, with more room around your foot. Order your usual size. Never size up for width.

What Wide adds
Around the ball of the foot+1/2 in 13 mm
Over the top of the foot+1/2 in 13 mm
Around the arch+1/2 in 13 mm
Across the widest part, flat+3/16 in 5 mm

“They are so comfortable. My feet aren't so wide as they are high from arch to top of foot. Making lace up boots cut into the top of my foot. These do not do that. If you have a high arch these boots are for you. AND I got compliments from the younger ladies at work (I'm 70). So yes, older woman can rock these.”

“These are lovely boots! They fit well, I bought the wide size, and they fit perfectly. I went with 8 instead of 8.5 and I am very glad that I did! They fit true to size, no need to size up. Plenty of room for thick socks as well. And beautiful too.”

★★★★★ Sherie · verified buyer

“I ordered the top grain leather and they are gorgeous. True to size and super comfy. Highly recommend”

★★★★★ Amy · verified buyer

“The are beautiful and seem to be well made. I went up a half of a size because my feet are wide, and I didn’t need to. My normal size would have been fine. So glad I went ahead and purchased them. They came shipped in an envelope, but they were absolutely fine.”

These boots are so beautiful, comfortable, and when I wear them my back stops hurting. I've gotten so many compliments. Thank you Skatheia

Video review attached. TLDR (or watch): Fit is great! Definitely follow the custom fitting instructions! Adorable! Cute as pictured. Comfy in first 6 hours... Concerned a bit about how the real leather will wear. They smelled bad coming out of the box but a solid airing-out over 24 hours solved that entirely.

There was a problem with the boots in shipping and one of the boots was damaged. The customer service they provided was absolutely above and beyond! They were even thoughtful enough to ask us to try on the boots for size before sending a replacement pair. This level of care and customer service is far and few between in this day and age.

The boots design is amazing, they are very comfy, and the design/art is spectacular!

Top notch boots and customer service!!!

Good questions

Asked before ordering.

Will these fit wide feet?

Yes. Choose Wide: it is a separate last with +1/2 in (13 mm) around the ball, instep and midfoot, and the same length as Standard. Order the size you already wear, not a size up. The Wide Fit Guide has every measurement.

Are these boots actually durable?

The outsoles are heat-bonded: cemented, then oven-cured. There is a steel shank inside for arch support, and the cushioned foam insole lifts out if you prefer your own orthotics. Built for daily wear, not for a shelf.

How long does shipping take?

Some sizes ship from stock. The rest are made to order, which adds 5 to 10 business days of production. Either way, plan on 2 to 5 weeks in total, and you get a tracking number by email when your pair ships.

What's your return policy?

You have 30 days from delivery to contact us, and one size exchange per order. That exchange ships free on US orders that include Delivery & Fit Protection. Without it, and on all international orders, you cover shipping both ways. Full details

Same print, other shapes

The rest of the outfit.

Vespertine also comes as a tote, socks, a mug and a winter boot with a cream faux-fur cuff.
