Riding Boots

I have wanted brown riding boots for the past two years. It's time to (wo)man up and buy a pair already! Here are a few boots that I came across and like:


$99.99




$99.95
*I am in LOVE with these boots but can't find them anywhere :(

$69.99







I finally gave in and ordered a pair from DSW. They were delivered today. I was hoping the adjustable straps at the ankle and calf would allow for the perfect fit but I guess they are mainly for style because they don't fit :(
They are a bit strange. Baggy in the ankle region and super tight around the calf, and they don't go all the way up to my knee and i am only 5'2". They are real leather, will they stretch to fit? I don;t want to keep them and waste money if I can't wear them, though...

$99.95




If you want to buy shoes from DSW online, I suggest signing up to be a DSW Rewards Member. You'll get free shipping on orders over $35. Also, I found the coupon code 920 which gave me an additional 10% off.

I really like the pair you ordered from DSW and like that the calve portion is adjustable. The Etienne Aigner pair is really nice too. I struggle finding the perfect pair of boots. I think riding boots would be great for everyday and comfortable because the heel isn’t high. I hope you love them!

Love the pair you ordered. I've been wanting a pair forever and I've been eying a pair from Famous Footwear, I should probably just buy them!
