Perfect combo of classic riding and subtle western style. I bought this for my 14 y/o daughter for her birthday--on sale--the top part is a little snug because she has muscular calves so it bunches a little on the ankles but she likes that look. I hope it stretches a bit. The tan waxy suede is soft and goes with everything. Cheapest frye tall boots I've seen! I bought it her actual size but they run 1/2 size bigger. I know it will last her 10-20 years, at least. I own a pair of the same boots for a couple of years now, in dark brown but with stiffer leather which I love. Very comfortable, versatile, durable boots! I did have rubber soles put in by my shoe cobbler. I do that on all my leather soled boots.
