Berthilde Block Heel Lace-Up Boots for Everyday

Berthilde is a laced boot on a block heel, cut at mid height with the lacing running the full front. Lacing is the most adjustable fastening a boot can have: it tightens across the instep where a zip cannot, which makes the fit better for narrow and wide feet alike rather than splitting the difference.

Brown, black and grey. Brown is the warmest and sits well with denim, cream and camel. Black is the most versatile and works with a dark winter wardrobe. Grey is the cool neutral of the three and pairs with charcoal and navy without matching them exactly. All three are plain enough to wear several days a week rather than saving for an occasion.

Sizes run US 4 through 12 including every half size, seventeen steps in total. The chart below converts each one to EU and UK with the matching foot length. Lacing adjusts the fit across the foot but never the length, so measure rather than assuming if you sit between two sizes.

• Silhouette: mid-height boot
• Heel: block heel
• Closure: full front lace-up
• Toe shape: round
• Colourways: Brown, Black, Gray
• Sizes: US 4 to 12, every half size
• Care: wipe clean with a soft damp cloth and let air dry away from direct heat, do not machine wash

Foot length is measured heel to longest toe. Runs true to size, so order your usual size and go up half a size for a roomier fit.
