These boots are made for wal..., er, riding

Well Red had her most fabulous flea market find to date.

And no, they don't fit me, but she'll be riding in style.

If they don’t fit her.. they could make some good bookends around your Guzzi library.

I've been corrected.  She says it was a "high-end ladies' resale shop".

Still, what a crazy thing to randomly find.

Sadly, there is not.  I can tell they're vintage. They're real heavy.  They may be 40 years old, or more.  They have an Ariat removeable insole in them, but I'm thinking the previous owner added those.
