Dominic & Dempsey

Made for mud & magic.
Branded from the ground up.

Dominic & Dempsey sells handcrafted, vegan, and sustainable children's boots. With such a beautiful concept, we were excited to craft the brand — logo design, design system, packaging, marketing collateral, and more — and to design and build their online store on Shopify.

Dominic & Dempsey
The Challenge

A beautiful idea — handcrafted, vegan kids' boots — needed a brand to match.

Dominic & Dempsey makes handcrafted, vegan, and sustainable children's footwear: 100% cruelty-free boots, never plastic, lined with cotton canvas, lightweight, flexible, and made through fair-trade production. They're designed to be worn season after season and city to city — "inspired by dazzling city life, built for nature."

With such a beautiful concept, the brand had to do it justice. Parents buying ethical kids' footwear expect premium quality and real values — and the brand needed to feel playful and adventurous for kids while looking sophisticated enough for the parents paying for it. That meant building everything from scratch: logo, identity, design system, packaging, marketing collateral, and an ecommerce site.

Logo & Brand Identity

Made for mud & magic.

We crafted the Dominic & Dempsey brand from the ground up — starting with the logo and wordmark and building out a complete identity: colour palette, typography, illustration, and photography direction. The tone balances whimsy and sophistication: adventure-led and playful ("Adventure looks better in boots"), but refined and minimal enough to sit alongside premium children's brands. Sustainability isn't a badge stuck on the side; it's part of the story the brand tells.

Dominic & Dempsey Logo & Brand Identity
Design System, Packaging & Collateral

From the shoebox to the swing tag, every touchpoint tells the same story.

A premium product is judged the moment the box arrives. We extended the identity into a full design system and applied it across packaging and marketing collateral, so every touchpoint — online, in the box, and at retail — feels consistent, considered, and unmistakably Dominic & Dempsey.

Design system

Colour, type, components, and usage rules so the brand stays consistent as it grows.

Packaging design

Shoeboxes and inserts designed for a memorable, sustainable unboxing.

Swing tags & labels

Small details that carry the vegan and fair-trade story to the shelf.

Marketing collateral

Lookbooks, social assets, and wholesale materials for retail partners.

Photography direction

Kids on wild trails and city streets — "inspired by dazzling city life, built for nature."

Voice & copy

Whimsical, adventure-led copy that keeps the sustainability message warm, not preachy.

Shopify Website

An online store as charming as the boots.

We designed and built the Dominic & Dempsey website on Shopify — a storefront that leads with the product and the story. Product pages showcase each style, like the Petit Vagabond boot in Beige Sand and Red Earth, with clear sizing, materials, and care details parents need before they buy. Beyond the shop, the site includes the brand story, a blog, gift cards, an "Imperfects" section for discounted seconds, FAQs, shipping and returns, and a wholesale page for retail partners.

Results

Dominic & Dempsey launched with a complete brand — logo, identity, design system, packaging, and collateral — and a Shopify store that brings it all together. It gives a small, values-driven business the polish of a much bigger label, and a foundation that scales with every new style and stockist.

We initially reached out to the team at TIB Digital to help us design software to improve a troublesome and challenging part of our business. In the design process we ended up redesigning our entire website and couldn't be happier with the results. Luke and the design team brought a new level of professionalism to our website while simultaneously working on the new software. After the design process the development team at TIB took over and wow, were we impressed. Jon, Sulay and the team made quick work of a challenging process and met all of our tight deadlines. We would recommend TIB Digital to anyone looking to improve their business and plan to continue to use them in the future.
