About BOHEMA
BOHEMA is a Polish family brand founded in 2018 by Sebastian and Wioletta Szypula. Every pair is handcrafted in our Kolbuszowa atelier (southern Poland) by Sebastian's parents: Edward, master shoemaker with 30 years of experience, assembles each pair; Halina, seamstress, hand-sews the uppers from plant-based leather. Three generations, one workshop, small batches.
Care
Wipe with damp cloth and mild soap when dirty. Apply the plant-leather cream included with every order over €200 every 2-3 months. Air dry away from direct sun or heat. Store with shoe trees or rolled paper inside to keep shape.
Sizing & Fit
BOHEMA uses European sizing 35-42. True to size for most feet. If between sizes, size up half — plant-based leather softens with wear but does not stretch significantly.
