About Fontleroy

Fontleroy began with a frustration I carried for years, and a decision to finally do something about it.

I'm Yvonne. I love fashion, I am full figured, and I have always wanted the boot. The beautiful, well made, luxury boot that finishes an outfit. Every time, I walked away empty handed. There were no real options for me, no quality boots that fit my calf. My legs were never the problem. The industry simply never designed for them.

So I did.

Every Fontleroy boot is designed from the first pattern for the wide calf woman. Not adjusted. Not extended. Never an afterthought. Cut from full grain and metallic leathers and made by skilled artisans in León, Guanajuato, a region with generations of leather craftsmanship in its hands.

Autograph fits an 18 inch calf. Prelude, arriving November 2026, is drawn for a 19 inch calf, with its own pattern from the very first line.

This is not a boot company. It is a boot house, built for the woman the fashion industry forgot to fit.

When you slip on a pair, you are wearing a boot drawn for your calf before anything else was decided. I know, because I was Customer #1.

I made the boot I could never find. Now it's yours.
