A "tall order"... please suggest boots in the 7 to 8" tall range? (Think similar to Crockett & Jones Islay.)

Hi all,

I come from wearing dress western boots but no longer can, due to a foot injury.

Crockett & Jones' Islay boot really has caught my eye but I would like to know if there are any other similar ones out there.

Allen Edmonds Daltons and similar, while fantastic, are just slightly shorter than my preference.

Can anyone suggest taller boots for me to research?

Thanks,

I have a pair of these from Purdey. Depending on how tall you want to go, these are pretty tall. They come in waxed calf and pebble grain.
