Wow, these boots are absolutely gorgeous. They are calf leather and extremely a soft leathet. I believe them to be around 15 years old. They would be a perfect Boho boot, western boot, or moto boot. They would look great with shorts, dresses, or jeans. They are just the perfect all-around fashionable boots. They have a great tread that will keep you from slipping. That is something you rarely find on a fashionable dress boot. The total height is 13 inches, with the heel being 3.25 inches. I do believe them to look a little narrower than most 7 1/2 B boot. Pictures just don't begin to do these boots justice
