Vintage Leather Lace Up Kiltie Ropers by Justin

This is the cutest pair of Justin Roper's i've come across.  
 
Navy Blue leather and black laces.  Perfectly broken in.  
 
Size:  Marked a Women's 4 1/2 but fit more like a 5
 
The origin of the original cowboy roper boot dates back to the 1950s. In the late 40s and early 50s, calf ropers wore baseball caps and tennis shoes. The Rodeo Cowboys Association didn't like the image and issued a ruling that required proper attire for all rodeo contestants.
 
It was then that the calf ropers approached John Justin, Jr. asking, "John, we don't really need that high heel on our boots. Can you make us something different?"
 
After many iterations, Justin remembered an old flat-heeled last called the 9315. The mold was formerly used to construct boots for the Army and the ROTC cadet officers at Texas A&M University. 
 
And that.  Is how the roper was born.
