text: This was my first pair of boots and I love them to death. I do have issues with foot pain after wearing them for long periods of time, however I don't think my feet were necessarily made for boots. I just got a pair of Dr. Scholls inserts and I was good. The heel is quite high if you aren't used to cowboy boots or you typically wear ropers so be aware until you get used to it you may feel like a hooker while wearing them, but they even look great with pretty much anything. Also what's great about these is that they aren't pointed like what you may use when riding a horse (but you could still easily use them for that) so they don't squish your toes, and they aren't too wide like regular square toes. They're perfectly in between which just adds even more points for looks.<br /><br />Highly recommend!
