Do any shorter women (5'2 ballpark) have the Paige Tall Riding boot?

I love the cognac color, I'm afraid the shaft length might be too long for me

Is this the dark brown tumbled leather ?

Thanks, in my screen it looks different from that posted by dragonette. Glad I ordered this color, liking what I see so far.

It's more taupe in real life than my peektures.

Thanks, dragonette. You've been so helpful, now anxiously waiting for my shoes to arrive. Fingers crossed the size fits.

I've been wanting a pair of Paige for a few yrs now. I came across the heel ones. Which looks better?

I like the heel

I think it depends on what your looking for. I have those same Paige Riding boots with the low heel. They look like a Riding Boot. I think the one with a heel looks more western, like a cowboy boot, reminds me of my Jane's.

I agree with piperbaby, they're different boots to me. I prefer the style of a riding boot to a western boot, so I'd go with the flat ones.

Yeah I fell in love with the flat from pics. But I bought a pair of toms desert booties and they are wedge heels and I am loving the height! I've been wearing flats for the past 5 yrs after having kids...I'm a flip flop and flats kid of girl. And hubby commented how nice it looks to wear something that adds height. Says I look more put together and slimmer . He's always telling me shoes can make or break an outfit. So when I came across the Paige with heels, I considered them but it did somewhat look odd to me. The boots are big on my legs, do you ladies think it looks sloppy when girls with skinny calf wear boots the are big around their legs?

 

[dragonette]

I think us skinny calves can wear boots which are big around the legs if the boots can slouch just a bit... If the leather is too stiff, then it might be a little odd.

I'm 5'3 and tried them on but did not buy them because they were too tall the shaft hit the back of my knee uncomfortably. I ended up buying the Melissa Button instead because it was shorter and looked better on my frame. Although, I think you might just have to try them on because I have seen them on some shorter girls and they worked fine, I probably just have short legs.
