Is the Roper Ryley a real leather boot?

No. The upper is faux leather with embroidered cording. It will not darken, crease or soften the way full-grain leather does.

How does the stretch back panel work?

A hidden FLEXTRA gore panel runs down the back of the shaft. It gives when you pull the boot on and flexes as your calf moves, so the fit is more forgiving than a fixed leather shaft.

Can I wear these all day?

The cushioned insole and flexible TPR outsole are made for walking and standing. They are not built for heavy work or long trail use.

What is the shaft height?

The shaft is 12 inches, so it reaches mid-calf.

How does it compare with a leather cowboy boot?

It is lighter and easier to pull on, with more give at the calf. A leather boot costs more but molds to your foot and lasts longer.

Our take on the Roper Footwear Womens Ryley Vamp 12In Top Boot

The Roper Ryley is a 12-inch women's Western boot with a faux leather upper and embroidered cording across the vamp and shaft. A hidden FLEXTRA stretch gore panel at the back gives it more give than a rigid leather cowboy boot, and the cushioned insole and flexible TPR outsole are built for walking rather than riding. It suits shoppers who want the Western look without breaking in stiff leather, though the faux upper will not patina or mold like real hide.
