I bought this for my daughter to bring to camp to use when riding.  She says it worked outstanding, was very comfortable, and now she wears them to school under skirts and such.  She is 9.  They are not tight on her calf, but you wouldn't expect that for a 9 year old.  They are actually loose.  But they look terrific, so I'm sure they would look great on adult or kids alike.  I wanted to post this review because at this value, I think mothers might want to think about buying one for themselves, and one for their daughters.  And don't be shy if you are looking for an actual riding boot, either.
