Has anyone seen these in person? I like the unusual color for riding boots. They look more feminine. What do you all think?

They are pretty and would work nicely in a place where winter is milder. They remind me of those boots Tanya once posted. They are also a great transition color for early fall and spring.

Yes they would be a lovely transition color, none of that heavy darkness in fall and spring.
I tend to only go for the riding boots style so far. I wonder if a person should try to venture out in style before buying a third pair of riding boots? I have a suede black pair, and a brown pair, both very casual.

Ack! San! WHY did you have to post those? They're my dream boots come to life, without the budget to match!!!

No kidding Brianna. I wondered why I had not seen these earlier in the sale or why no ne else had mentioned them. I thought maybe they were not looked upon as a prize.

I LOVE those boots san! Awesome color, definite gives a feminine, softer feel to the traditional riding boots. I would be all over them if they fit my calves.

Not sure why people haven't mentioned it; maybe the color? If that style works for you, I think you should go for it!

Stunning! I could never wear them, though, since I get scuffs and stains on any light-coloured footwear. Jealous of you, though!

San, I did see those at the NAS, but I didn't try them on, because the shaft height is WAY too tall for me - 15 inches! Most Cole Haan boots are really really tall. But you are tall, so they might work for you? They are beautiful in real life. Cole Haan makes nice shoes in general.

I tried these boots on in Vancouver. They fit my leg perfectly over skinny jeans. Loved the look and heel height. So I guess you need to be at least 5ft 6 with a slimmer calf. But I wear a small foot size so the larger you go, the wider the calf circumference will get.

They looked beautiful and were comfy to boot! But I was after chestnut slouchy boots, so I gave these amiss.
