Is the Tristen bootie actually waterproof?

Yes. Johnston & Murphy builds it with waterproof suede or waterproof full-grain leather, and the leather lining and synthetic sole keep water out. It is meant for rain and slush, not for standing in deep puddles.

How does the Tristen fit?

It runs true to size for most wearers, but some find it narrow. If you have a wide foot or wear thick socks, consider a half size up.

What is the heel height?

The contoured stacked heel is 2 1/8 inches, and the shaft is 5 inches tall. That puts it in ankle-boot territory with a moderate lift.

It has a side zipper, so you zip it on rather than pulling it on. That makes it easier to get into than a pull-on western boot.

A waterproof suede or full-grain leather upper, a leather lining and a synthetic sole with traction inserts.

Is the Tristen worth it against other western booties?

It stands out for combining a western silhouette with a waterproof upper and leather lining, which most fashion western boots lack. The trade-off is a synthetic sole and a narrower fit than some rivals.

About the Johnston & Murphy Tristen Western Bootie

The Tristen is a women's western ankle bootie from Johnston & Murphy, built in waterproof suede or full-grain leather with a leather lining and a synthetic sole. It has a 5-inch shaft, a 2 1/8-inch contoured stacked heel, a side zipper and traction inserts, so it works on rainy or slushy days without looking like a rain boot. It suits shoppers who want a western silhouette that survives wet weather, though the narrow fit and heel height are the usual sticking points.
