These are both cute & sophisticated boots!!! The red color is the perfect shade of barn red and not too bright. The tan stitching is gorgeous with just enough pattern to add interest without clashing with my outfits. I always wanted a pair of red boots since I watched the movie Footloose in the 80's and this pair is worth the wait. Old Gringo boots are extremely comfortable and oh so soft. I will enjoy these boots for years to come. I normally wear a size 8 shoe and size 7.5 in Old Gringos fit perfectly.
