“I received my boots yesterday and wore them out tonight. First of all I had to do a size switch and they fit perfectly! They are just so fun. They are very comfortable and I am very happy with them! 😊 The customer service is excellent, I am speaking about Jenny since she is who helped me with my order. I have never ordered boots online but these are so cute I took a chance. I am glad I did!”
“I received my magnificent Digitalis boots yesterday, and reveled in the gorgeous artwork, not only of foxglove (digitalis) but mushrooms 🍄, ferns, and a riot of other forest beauty. I took them out for a lovely walk today, and they’re as comfortable as they are lovely 🥰! No regrets whatsoever, worth every penny (and I do pinch mine, like everyone these days). Can’t recommend these highly enough!”
“I ordered these for my granddaughter, per my daughter (I have yet to see them) they are well made, beautiful and fit perfect. I love that she will go back to school with something so beautiful. Of note communication is exceptionaly fast and efficient I had an order question that Jenny answered within a day. My advice is to order them.”

I received these boots last weekend, and I’m already in love with them! They’re beautiful, the material looks really nice, and most importantly, they’re very comfortable. I wore them for about four hours walking around Costco and then again later that night, and my feet still felt great. I usually have a hard time with shoes because my feet get tired easily, so that was a huge plus for me.
My only issue is the sizing. I followed the sizing instructions, and I normally wear a 7.5 or 8 wide, but these feel almost a full size too big. They’re pretty loose, so I have to wear them with thick socks. Since I’ll mostly wear them during the colder months, it’s not a big enough issue for me to return them, but definitely something to keep in mind when choosing your size.
I did notice some creasing in the material after the first wear, but overall, I’m very happy with my purchase and looking forward to wearing them all winter!

Yes, I know the sheer beauty of these boots isn't completely shown. They're wet with dew and a little muddy from walking this early morning through the greenery that covers my yard but they served their protective purpose well. And yes, they're bigger than you'd think the biggest size offered would be...because I saw the boots and responded to Skatheia on how wonderful it'd be to own (and wear!) a pair but being a guy and such with big feet...they responded with the word that a pair, up to size EU 50 (14.5 in the US) could be special ordered, so I dove down that rabbit hole and now have this pair of my own! This is the second pair of 'customized' footwear I've owned (I'd commissioned hand-painted high-tops some years before) and they'll be worn when additional illustration is needed. Thanks to Skatheia for going that extra mile to satisfy a customer's interest!

They look great!
I have worn them several times and gotten many compliments😊

after 4 hours of indoor wear, mostly sitting, they already look like this. Color/ finish coming off. Very angry and disappointed in boys I paid almost 200 dollars for.

Perfect fit, absolutely gorgeous, and so fun to dress up any outfit. These are very well made boots. I will definitely be buying another pair soon. I have zero complaints. Love them ❤️

These are truely awesome boots! I was so excited that I wore them asap without socks for several hours and they felt great! I am 71 years old and this is the first footwear I have ever gotten that didn't suffocate my toes. They are wide enough and the toebox tall enough that my feet felt wonderful! The sole is fantastic! Thick enough and the track will be slip-resistant in the winter. And they are so adorable!!! OMG! Kind of like army boots for fairies! The toes are almost like steel toed boots, as well, which means I don't have to worry about breaking any more of my toes! These boots are just fabulous! Even my husband laughed and said they were "really cute"! And they have plenty of room for heavy socks later.

Super cute and good quality!

Love the books still waiting on sock and tote but very happy so far

These are easily the most beautiful AND most comfortable boots I’ve ever worn. I haven’t had them long enough to speak on their durability, but they’re worth every penny I paid.
The customer service from Jenny (& Bramble) couldn’t be better - professional yet warm and personalized too.
My only complaint is the delivery being a huge hassle. The Vulpina high-tops I ordered never made it, although my neighbors may be to blame for that.

I feel as though I have waited all my 73 years of age to find boots this beautiful! They are extremely well made, beautifully crafted, and fit so well. When I wore them out the first time, a couple of people actually stopped me and said, "Your boots are so cute! Where did you get them?" I didn't hesitate to recommend exactly where to get them. But that is just the beginning. The customer service offered by this small company is the best I have ever experienced. I am not used to buying shoes for myself, frankly, because it is a bit of a chore for me. So, we had to do a bit of experimentation to find the right size and I gotta say, I couldn't have received better service, beyond fair, efficient, fast and friendly. Don't hesitate to get yours today. Highly recommended!!

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