Just like in the fashion world, riding boots get expensive, and in my experience the more expensive ones break in faster and are far more comfortable. If you bought a pair of crappy ones I can only cringe at what your feet may be feeling! Riding boots are (I agree with a previous comment) for riding! I would never even think of wearing mine as fashion even if when pressed for time I've worn them to class. Like in fashion though, trust me, you know what brands will kill you.

Your mom rocks my world. I also live my life in tall flat black boots - knee-high Dr. Martin's with the Soles Bouncing! Those shoes last for five years or more. You may need to have the zipper replaced sometimes, but that's not too pricey. THE cutest story ever! Your mom rocks my world.

I hate online shopping because I hate to wait. So just in case anyone is like me, they have them at the NYC uptown location in the back on the first floor! Holla!

Why I parted with them, I do not know. They were so versatile, and fit like a glove. Have I ever seen a pair since that has not cost at least $350 for the same look? No! My Enzo boots were perfect for late night adventures and long walks alike. I miss them! I once had a pair of black riding boots from Enzo Angiolini, and they lasted for years.

I recently purchased some brown riding boots on ebay, they fit great but I have the same problem with the ouchies. The thick piece of leather that goes down the back of the boot basically cuts into the back of my foot. I actually gave in and bought (via a birthday gift) some expensive (for me) ASH (fake) riding boots on bluefly because I wanted something classic and comfy. Now I just need to decide what to do with my first pair. I guess I can try the moleskin method because they are darker than the new ones, so it would be nice to keep them. Do you notice that they are slippery on the soles? I have a problem with almost falling all the time due to the little metal nails on the sole. Maybe they are a hazard to my health and its best to sell them......IDK??? I love the black boots with the laces!!!
