Detailed Review
The Old Gringo Women's Erin Western Boot stands out for its exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. Made from 100% leather, it boasts a strikingly soft feel while maintaining structural integrity. The leather upper is not just about looks—it's designed to last through seasons of wear.
In terms of comfort, the boot features a leather lining that feels gentle against your skin. However, like many high-quality leather boots, there may be an adjustment period as they conform to your feet. It’s advisable to wear them for shorter periods initially to allow time for breaking in.
The 15-inch shaft length provides ample coverage, making these boots ideal for both style and warmth. The classic stacked heel gives just enough height without compromising stability, allowing you to walk confidently whether you're on city streets or trails.
As for style, the intricate embroidery and stitched accents elevate the design, setting it apart from more standard options. This boot is versatile enough for various occasions, from casual outings to more formal events, ensuring you'll make a statement no matter where you go.

User Reviews
I love love love this boots. They are very comfortable and easy to wear. I read the other reviews and ordered a size up and wish I hadn't though. Maybe a 1/2 size, but because the are real leather of nice quality they are going to stretch. Mine are already too big, but I didn't want to send them back because I wanted to wear them right away. One note though: if you have bigger calves - be wary. They are form fitting on the calves. I do not have large calves and the fit just right, but it would be hard to tuck a pair of pants into them.
Incredibly high quality boots... very much worth their price tag. I almost don't want to wear them out of the house, they are so nice!! The intircacies of the stitching, the soft leather, perfectly crafted shape and the fit of these boots are hard to beat. My only small criticism is that the foot bed is a little hard. I had to put a gel insert in, but my feet are kind of sensitive, so it may be just me. I love the slightly taller fit of these boots and the snug fit of the calf. I'm pretty slim and I hate swimming in my boots. But now I can't fit my phone in my boot if I wear a dress out dancing... ah, dilemmas!!!!
The boots arrived quickly and are gorgeous. I wear a size 6 and I ordered a 5.5 they fit perfectly. My friend who is also a 6 tried these on and she said the shaft was too tight for her. We are both petite I guess my chicken legs finally came in handy :). They are Old Gringo so the attention to detail is flawless. The flowers look like they are embroidered on.....very feminine. A lovely boot for a great price.
These boots are gorgeous and due to the pointed toe and beautiful embroidery can be worn dressy or casual in my opinion. Unfortunately the size 9 (which is my usual size and I have 5 other pairs of Old Gringos in a size 9) that I ordered were significantly small in length and width. I called Old Gringo because I was disappointed and concerned about quality control and ordering boots online and they said that because of the embroidery in the front of the boot it may have shrunk them in a bit. I have exchanged the boots for a 9.5 B and am waiting for them to arrive. I'm hopeful that the bigger size will work because I love the look of the boot.
The boot was beautiful and i love it but too small for me. I am not very happy that i have return it. I always wear 6B form "Old Gringo". I don't know why not work this time.
First: thank you amazon for that quick delivery!As I am kind of "addicted" to handcrafted beautiful Cowboy Boots - especially Old Gringo Boots - those are also very well made and a "piece of art" for your feet.Compared to "Marsha-, Ellie-, Leopardido- and Bonnie-Boots" by Old Gringo the "Erin`s" run slightly small. Maybe because of the easily different toe (it is more pointed then like with the just mentioned boots). As they are made of soft goat leather - to me I`ve choosen my "usually" size with Old Gringo and it workes out!Basically with Old Gringo Boots my experiance is, in case you are in between two sizes - better get 1/2 a size larger!If you can catch a good price - do not hesitate: get them!
Checked the reviews first and everyone said fit true to size, but seemed the pair I got was 1/2 to one size too large and had to return. So disappointed there was not a smaller size in my range available. Awesome boots!!!
This will be my 7th pair of OG's and my 2nd pair of Erin's. I also have them in bone. The detailing and stitching on these are absolutely beautiful which warranted a repeat purchase! These pictures online don't even do them justice. They are true to size and I usually wear a thin trouser sock with my boots but it wouldn't be uncomfortable to wear a thicker sock if I wanted. They arrived earlier than expected.
