Oprah’s 2024 Favorite Things list has arrived and Sole Bliss is one of the few footwear selections this year.

Sole Bliss was announced as the makers of Oprah‘s favorite boot, which was featured in her annual gift guide published on Nov. 1, ahead of the holiday season. Oprah’s Favorite Things list has served as a Christmas gift guide for decades and has previously helped catapult brands to success.

Winfrey has selected the British brand’s “Wonder Boots” style this year. “Gayle and I love Sole Bliss shoes—and so do Julia Roberts and Viola Davis,” Winfrey wrote on her publication’s website. “These shearling-lined boots are cute and, thanks to their unique pain-free design, sooo comfortable. I would wear them with pants or skirts.”

Gayle King reportedly recommended Sole Bliss shoes to Winfrey after wearing their platform heels to the “Mission Impossible” premiere. “You know that sometimes we must choose between style and comfort… with Sole Bliss, you don’t have to,” King said. “I wore their heels and I was able to enjoy the evening in complete comfort.”

In addition to Julia Roberts and Viola Davis, other A-listers who are known to be fans of the brand include Drew Barrymore and Helen Mirren, as well as royals Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton.

They are luxury Italian leather boots, available in 3 colors, which features a full shearling lining and matching shearling footbed. The “Wonder Boot” also features retractable stainless-steel studs which flip down to provide traction on slippery surfaces, perfect for snow and icy weather.

The boots also have an outer zipper for easy entry and the brand uses “Podiatrist-approved Comfort Technology,” that includes their Bunion Bed stretch panel, wide toe-box and an anatomically contoured and cushioned footbed.

Sole Bliss says it specializes in fashion-focused footwear for women with a variety of foot issues, as well as those simply looking for comfort. “We’re thrilled to be included in Oprah’s prestigious gift guide,” Lisa Kay, CEO of Sole Bliss said about the mention. “This year Sole Bliss has grown tremendously in the US, where sales have nearly overtaken our UK business.”

The boots are currently available on the Sole Bliss website and on Amazon for $439.
