What wearers wrote back.
“I got this beautiful boot in vegan leather. I think if I were to do it again, I would splurge for the leather. But this product is great! My fit is perfect. I have a wide foot, so I'm used to things being tight. Not these. My toes are comfortable, and it feels great. I love the butterflies and they're a feast for not only my feet but also for my eyes.”
“Love them! The toe box is very roomy. I ordered a wide and realize I didnt need to. Will definitely order from them again”
“I LOVE the print and construction. As with any online shoe purchase the fit is always a ‘hope’ you get it right. I do like a wide toe area and always buy wides but these are really roomy! I’ll need thick socks. If I buy again I’ll do a ½ size smaller and regular width.”
“Love these boots! They are comfortable and the design is just as cute in person as online!”
“Beautiful. Cushy. Padded tongue.”
“Fit seems good. Too hot to wear yet. Maybe a tad stiff but hard to tell until I can wear them awhile. Just can’t wear them in 99 degree weather.”

They are pretty and fit well. I ordered real leather and expected them to be marked as having genuine leather uppers but there is no markings and leaves me to question what I received. Also, although the designer is in the US these appear to have been shipped in from China. That doesn’t make them bad but I would have preferred knowing that before I ordered. For your knowledge I received them Friday 9/4 and they were not particularly well packaged but fortunately not damaged although the box was a bit crushed.

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
