The print

Black roses bloom through silver thorns across a midnight canvas, petals so dark they bleed red only in the right light. The Thornveil Rose is made for those who know love and danger wear the same face: bold enough to bloom, sharp enough to warn.

The material

Microfiber (Vegan) Leather. A soft matte microfiber upper, 1.4 mm, with a water-based coating. Soft from the first wear with no break-in, light on the foot, and no chemical smell when you open the box. It barely stretches, so order the size you measure.

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
LengthSame

“This is my "formal" pair. Great to wear for those occasions when you want to be stylish but not flashy. I love the wide fit. My feet feel like I'm barefoot with all the room. Not too wide, but definitely not crowded.”

★★★★★ Dianne · verified buyer

“I ordered boots for my daughter’s birthday from the US. The boots arrived to my daughter in Perth Australia in time for her birthday. She loves the quality and design. The communication with the owner was fantastic and actually very fun. Thanks for a great buying experience for such a unique product.”

★★★★★ Deb · verified buyer

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
