These gorgeous Equestrian English style boots are nearly perfect with shiny and thick leather. Boot measures almost 11 inches when placed on ruler Beautiful Black boots with leather soles with minor wear. Tan leather inside boot and has an 8 written in pen and 41 which is a European size. A brand name on the inside bootis not visible. Just under the heel, as pictured is the word EXCELSIOR. My research Further indicates that Excelsior is an Italian quality handmade bootmaker. 2" heel with 12" total height These boots are too small for me so I had a female who wears an 8.5 shoe try them on and they fit her. I'll be happy to measure anything else if needed. English boot look, western core prairie core, riding boot.
