These classic black riding boots are a stable for any wardrobe. Accented with a silver buckle these boots look great with leggings, jeans, and both skirts and dresses. These boots are size 8.5 and have a rubber sole so you don’t have to worry about slipping while you walk. I am 5’7 and the shaft comes 1.5 inches below my knee. The zipper is on the inside and goes all the way down so these are very easy to get on. I wear a true size 9 but for some reason these fit nicely and are very comfortable in the size 8.5.
