For more than a decade, beginning when I was about fifteen, I wore boots that looked very much like this, except that I cut the fringe off, thinking it looked stupid. I still had them when I moved from California to Texas, but my son packed everything during my last day at work, and I think he threw them away, since I never found them again after unpacking in Texas. By then, they had been patched in several places and resoled a few times.
