Men's Tall Riding Boots

[ManOfCharacter]

I'm in need of advice on purchasing a pair of classy, functional, but mostly stylish Riding Boots. I've scoured Google Images and Pinterest, and found the following images that appeal to me immensely:

https://i.pinimg.com/564x/44/9f/ec/449fec8f00b01aebf78e7040be598b5e.jpg

I believe these images to be of the same make/model of boot. The boots appear to be of a reasonably high quality leather, clearly able to take a nice shine. The tightness of the curves and stitching on the wings and cap would lead me to believe the construction is reasonably good, likely properly welted.

I found these on pinterest, tagged for a site that seems to be no longer up (www.equestyle.com). Can anyone identify these boots? Or point me in the direction of a similar pair?

My need is not really for riding. I really just need them urgently, to wear during a 30 second video clip I'm making about my wife, to appear well dressed as I spin her in a flowing dress on the veranda of a lavish mission-style house in the Carmel Highlands (it's my Grandmother's house, and she's selling it soon). Frivolous? Perhaps, but I'll never skip on nice shoes/boots. I'm ready to spend hundreds or $1000+ on the best.

The boots you reference would appear to be by Alberto Fasciani.

So ManOfCharacter, did you end up buying a pair of leather riding boots? Would love to see how you look in them.

I doubt $ 1000 would be the best

I did indeed. I went with the Alberto Fasciani Dressage C5 in brown. Unfortunately I was too late to film the scene (described in my previous post) at the location I wanted, as the property sold quickly. I found a happy alternative at a local park.

You'll have to forgive the atrocious choice of trousers paired with the boots, I was in another time crunch and went with what I had. Certainly they could have been better. I made the same choice later when joining the wife in her maternity photos, but I suppose it could be worse.

Those are mighty fine boots, but, my goodness, don't they cry out for a pair of cavalry twill jodhpurs?

Beautiful boots. But more importantly, beautiful photographs of yourself and your wife. Great videography. I'd love to chat with you more about your interest in wearing riding boots as fashion and specifically in the video. Might you be willing to email me at [email protected]

It's a bummer, the video would have taken place on the rear orange tile patio. I was going to move the table out of the way, I'd be running in from the dirt path that goes down the hill, while the camera follows my wife out the patio door and up the steps. It was intended to be one continuous shot, orbiting around her as she ran in slow motion. I'd be following the camera man so as to be out of the frame, until the second orbit where I'd take my place and run in. I didn't even get much of a chance to test that choreography so, maybe it wouldn't have worked. The patio is large but may not have been big enough to pace all of that movement.

ManOfCharacter, great video. So who is enthralled by the boots? Your beautiful wife or you? Either way, I have to give you credit for pulling off the look. And the running, in boots! I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before.

Love the house and the setting.
Had you considered traditional Spanish
riding boots to go with the house? This is
what I saw in Ecuador when I lived there.
Also saw them in Andalucia
