The print
Dark flowers and a golden crescent moon cover every inch of these boots. The Vespertine is made for those who walk between worlds: bold enough to turn heads, tough enough to keep up with you.
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.

What wearers wrote back.
“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.”
“I ordered the top grain leather and they are gorgeous. True to size and super comfy. Highly recommend”
“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.”
“Wish the greenery was a little more visible like the photo. But love them anyway. Just ordered another pair. Hopefully they will be brighter.”
“The boots r so comfy and beautifully made. My daughter also loved them and requested a pair for her birthday.”

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!!!

These boots are beautiful and very comfortable. They don't require anything special to break them in like a lot of other boots. Just put them on and go for a walk or dancing or whatever. The customer service is awesome too. The first pair I received had a flaw. No problem. They sent out a brand new pair. The boots are the best. I bought a second pair in a different design.

I do not like that you keep calling these "leather" when they are not
S
These boots are very comfortable.

Oh where do I start...Cutest boots ever made for wide feet.
These are the FIRST boots that fit my wide foot even with socks on...
I am sooo happy with my purchase, I actually bought 2 pair...They will not be my last.
Thank you for understanding what a wide foot with high instep means..

The boots are amazingly comfortable. Love them.

They don’t look as near as nice as they do in the photo. Kinda cheep looking so I’m disappointed.

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.
Keep walking
