Fly agaric, a death's-head hawkmoth and passionflower, inked on aged parchment.
$179.99 Shipping calculated at checkout.
Inked in the style of a naturalist's specimen plate, the Materia Medica is what happens when botanical obsession meets combat boots. Amanita muscaria in rust-orange with anatomical cross-sections. A death's-head hawkmoth mid-wing. Passionflower, belladonna, deep crimson anemone, fern frond, crystals, and near-black berry clusters, every element rendered in fine ink etching with hand-tinted watercolor washes on aged parchment. This is apothecary as armor.
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.
Part of this range is kept in stock, the rest is made to order. Allow 5 to 10 business days for production if your size isn't on the shelf, and 2 to 5 weeks in total from order to doorstep.
US shipping is $14.99, plus $9.99 for each extra pair, with import duties pre-paid. Something wrong? Write to cs@skatheia.com within 30 days.

Good questions
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.
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.
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.
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
