Questions?

What are they made of? +

Full-grain leather uppers with Goodyear-welted leather or rubber soles, finished by hand.

Is it real leather? +

Yes — full-grain leather, the top layer of the hide. It ages beautifully and lasts for years.

What size should I order? +

Go with your usual size. If you’re between sizes or have wider feet, size up — free size swaps have you covered.

Are they comfortable all day? +

Yes. The footbed is cushioned and shaped to feel natural, and they need only a little breaking in.

How do I care for them? +

Wipe clean, use a shoe tree, and condition the leather now and then. Rotate pairs so they rest between wears.

Can they be resoled? +

Yes — the Goodyear welt lets a cobbler replace a worn sole, so the shoe lasts for years instead of seasons.

How long does delivery take? +

Your order ships within 24 hours and arrives in 8–10 days. You’ll see the exact delivery dates on the product page.

What if it doesn’t fit or I change my mind? +

You have 30 days to return unworn shoes with tags. Wrong size? We’ll send the right size free.

What a great pair of shoes. They are both stylish and comfortable and get the job done (behind the scenes) of adding height. They are also roomy enough to add more height if I ever want to.

To be honest, I'm already a tall guy at 6'1″ but I always wanted a little more. Now I'm almost 6'4″ and looking down at just about everybody. Nobody has a clue.

The leather feels rich and the fit is true to size. I wore them to a wedding and got compliments all night — no one could tell about the lift.

Great quality for the price. A little stiff the first week, then they broke in nicely. Would buy again.

Fast shipping and the box feels premium. The shoes look even better in person than in the photos.

Good shoes and honest sizing. I went half a size up like the size chart suggested and the fit is perfect. Wish there were more colors.
