These cowboy boots are made by Nocona. They are made of leather and have cognac-colored full-quill ostrich inlays on the foot and pull straps. The intricate stitching on the shaft is exceptional. I bought them in May, 2008, on a sale and applying a gift certificate toward their purchase. They are 13" tall, have a 1-5/8" walking heel, and J (pointed) toe. Their two-tone appearance is very good looking. I wear them to work as well as just around. They look great in contrast with blue denim jeans.
