The Tall Tornados are made for men. Sorry ladies! They feature top quality full grain leather with an inside zipper for easy on-and-off. There are a couple of different Velcro strap closures, one on top and two at the sides. One drawback is that one set of Velcro straps is located on the inside of the ankle, where eventually it will catch on a shifter and begin to curl out -- keep an eye on those details, Xelement! Still, this is a great boot. It has an EVA comfort insole, Goodyear welt construction, and the outsole is screwed in (not just glued on) for extra durability and for easy replacement if it wears down. It also comes with a shift protector patch on the toe -- what a great idea! How many pairs of cowboy boots have I ruined with a toe shift? Many. Yes, many. The soles are High Abrasion Oil Resistant (Xelement's words).
The heel on the Tall Tornado is 11/2 inch high, giving you gents a little boost whether you need it or not. The boots rise just under ten inches high and will come to just under the knee on most men.
