Do these run true to size?
Yes, these run true to size. Funtasma does not carry half sizes. If between sizes, go up.
How does the heel affect the wearability of this style?
The 2-inch block heel provides a comfortable lift with a wide, stable base. Block heels distribute weight more evenly than stilettos, making these much more walkable for long events and costume wear.
Who is this style designed for?
Retro and vintage costume wearers, 60s and 70s themed event attendees and anyone who wants a two-tone boot for decade parties, Halloween and themed photoshoots.
What should I know before wearing the Retro-300 Boots for the first time?
These require very little break-in due to the flat or low heel construction. Walk around the home first to confirm the fit and let the upper settle. Wearing them with socks during early use can help soften the material and reduce friction for a more comfortable fit.
Is this style vegan, how do I care for it, and how long will it last?
This style is fully vegan. Wipe the patent upper clean with a damp cloth after each use and polish with a patent conditioner to maintain the finish. With regular care the construction holds up well for costume and event wear.
What do customers say about this style?
Customers consistently highlight the quality construction and how well the style completes a costume look. Comfort and accurate sizing are the most frequent positives. Most find the fit true to size.
How much break-in is needed?
The PU or patent upper softens with the first few wears and the heel or platform settles quickly. Walk around the home first before wearing to events. Wearing them with socks for the first few uses can help soften the material and reduce friction.
How does the Retro-300 Boots compare to other Funtasma costume styles?

If you need a different style for a different character, the Gogo range is the most versatile for retro looks and the Victorian range is the most popular for period costumes.
