1960s • ACME • Chocolate Vine-Stitch Western • Women’s 8
Why we love them
Supple chocolate-brown leather with tall vine-and-flame stitching that dances up the shaft — a clean, confident 1960s Acme design. Understated at first glance, but the silver-white embroidery catches the light just enough to give these boots a quiet swagger.

NB Notes
A conditioning balm will deepen the chocolate tone and highlight the stitching contrast. Wear with faded denim or a simple dress to let the embroidery shine.
