Custom made riding boots from venerable New York bootery! These dark brown leather tall boots are an equestrian classic, with lacing at the front of the ankle, precise top stitching, and a broad toe cap. Has a curved top edge that's higher toward the inner side, nylon twill pulls inside the top edge, and a small leather loop at the back of the heel (likely for spurs). Hand-lasted leather soles and stacked heels. New boots from E. Vogel are $1300 and up. These are difficult to date, judging by the condition of the leather they appear to be 1950s or 60s.
