Ocht to be honest when they are on they just look like a Chelsea/ posh Dealer type boot as the have a Roper style heel
No one would really recognise them as Western boots unless they saw the leg ( which is ornate as feck )
Hard to find the right pair isnt it.
Some are far too ornate which can sometimes sneak onto the toe cap.
Another problem in the UK is finding them in person so you dont have to order a few pairs online to find the right fit.

There are loads of threads full of miserable folk on the site.Anyone that wears them looks a prat..call the fashion police
I started this one as a bit of light hearted crack so maybe be obnoxious on a thread more suited to you .
Not if one wished to loose an arrow with any meaningful outcome from an English long bow.

Bought a pair for a Mess meal that had a western theme. Surprisingly comfortable, but not enough for me to wear daily.
I bought them from a local charity shop as I was going to wear once and pass them on. But they are still in the wardrobe. I might find reason to wear them again.

We have noticed that too, any way for when going down to the local rubbidy dub wearing a pair of these may get some interest lol.

It's been quite a few years since I've worn any, since I haven't owned horses in probably 20years.
For those heckling about them, they do server a purpose when riding western saddle. The smooth soles and pronounced/raise heel help with keeping the feet in the stirrups, and sliding them out of the stirrups in a hurry, without the risk of getting hung up. I've see a few guys try to bail on a horse that either got spooked, or sank unexpectedly to their bellies in water soaked DG (disintegrated granite) trails. It wasn't pretty watching them get drug (or worse) rolled over on, by their mount.
As to the decorative stitching on the boot shaft....yuck. I prefer "roper" style boots myself (plain, rounder toe and a lower heel than your standard "sh*t kickers").
Roper Boots | Justin Boots
For a long lasting boot, that handles rougher conditions (say mucking out stalls, or roping calves) a bull hide boot is a sure bet. They're tougher than most leather boots, so take a bit longer to break in. But once broken in, they'll give you many years of use if cleaned, oiled regularly. I think I still have a pair of these somewhere in the storage, along with my saddle and remaining tack (that didn't go with the horses, when they were let go).

Yup
The boots I have a Roper style.
Wore them yesterday for the full day and they are seriously comfy on my feet.
I can’t wear trainers etc anymore and only wear boots , mainly Timberland premiums but the Ariats will be getting worn to death if comfiest has anything to do with it .
