Beautiful Boot with Rich Caramel Color | High-Instep Approved | Snug at the Ball
"The Trace in Caramel is a stunningly attractive boot, and the coloring looks even better in person than it does online. I was initially hesitant about the blue shafts, but the orange stitching perfectly pulls in the richness of the caramel leather. It gives the whole boot a softer, beautifully balanced look. Overall I would call the fit true to size in length, though the EE width is a bit snug at the ball of the foot. Instep/Vamp: I have freakishly high arches and insteps, so I was pleasantly surprised by how easily these went on. For comparison, they are much easier to slip into than my exotic Ariat Futurity Streak (Black Python) boots, which have a much tighter vamp. Width: Where these boots get snug is right at the balls of the feet. The EE width runs slightly narrower than a Tecovas EE, but lands pretty much on-par with Ariat's EE width. If you have a high instep, don't hesitate—these offer surprising clearance out of the box. Just be prepared for a slight break-in period around the widest part of your foot if you are used to roomier brands like Tecovas."
