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.

Questions about this product
What material are the Bohema Thriller Ankle Boots made from?
The Thriller Ankle Boots are made from plant-based leather, a vegan alternative to animal leather. Bohema uses materials such as cactus leather (Desserto) and grape leather (Vegea) across their collections, crafted into finished boots at craft workshops handmade in Poland.
Are the Thriller Ankle Boots suitable for someone with a narrow foot or a wide foot?
The Thriller Ankle Boots are designed with a classic ankle boot silhouette inspired by 80s style. They tend to suit a standard to slightly narrow foot profile. If you have a wide foot or high instep, sizing up by half a size is generally recommended to ensure a comfortable fit.
What occasions are the Bohema Thriller Boots good for?
The Thriller Ankle Boots work well for everyday wear, evenings out, and any occasion where you want a bold, statement-making look. Their black plant-based leather finish and 80s-inspired design pair easily with jeans, midi skirts, or tailored trousers for both casual and dressed-up outfits.
How should I care for plant-based leather ankle boots like the Thriller?
Plant-based leather requires gentle care. Wipe the surface clean with a soft damp cloth after wear and avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or direct heat. Use a vegan leather conditioner occasionally to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as they can damage the plant-based surface.
