Help me identify cowboy boots
 
1 Attachment(s)
I was given these cowboy boots last weekend. I was told they are Ostrich, but they sure don't look like the other Ostrich boots that I've seen on the internet.

I was told they were hand made in Thailand. There is a "Tony Leather" tag on the inside of the boot which corroborates this.

I was wondering if anyone here on CP might have an idea what these boots are made from?

Thanks ahead of time.

Along with your answer and some searching I believe you are correct.

My buddy has a pair and says they are much tougher than regular cowhide. They don't look brand new anymore, but they sure don't look 10 years old either. IIRC, he's had them re-soled 3-4 times and wears them to work everyday.

Yep although the Guatemalan Pants snake is very close.
