ABOUT THE SIZING !!!! I wear an 8.5 D and these feel a tad small. They fit narrower than I am accustomed to. If I wore thin socks, they feel okay. So please be aware that even though they say 8.5, you may be a little more comfortable if you are an 8.
These boots are new, but with some minor shelf life wear. The right boot has scratching on the sole from being tried on,as pictured. The left boot's sole is clean.
Made of smooth ostrich leather.
These boots stand 15" tall.
I have seen some discussion on-line that these may be made exclusively for Texas Ranger law enforcement officers. I do know that these were offered back in 2015.
Glad to answer any questions.
Thank you for looking.
