Cowboys represent the Old West and western clothing is recognized for it’s uniqueness. Western wear is recognized around the world. Fashion shoes designs are my favorite. I have a crush on the cowboy boots. And I have a crush on the shoes printing, so I always make my own shoes prints. In fact, there is nothing difficult in shoes printing if you have a shoes printer.
Cobblers in Coffeyville, Kansas are credited with producing the first “cowboy boot.”  They featured pointed toes, reinforced arches and higher heels.  These features all had a purpose that were useful to the cowboy. By 1880 western wear had been refined to the point that they haven’t changed appreciably since.  Below is a photo, circa 1920, of cowgirls who performed in Wild West rodeos and shows.   Are they the cutest things ever?
I believe there is a big difference between western wear and cowboy wear.  I agree with Trainingheels and her issue about wearing cowboy boots.  There are, however, ways to wear cowboy boots and not look like a complete goober.
If you are going to wear cowboy boots, don’t look like the girls above. I think the best way to pull off the Cowgirl boot is to wear what real cowboys and girls wear now, not in 1920.    I would be reluctant to buy cowboy boots that are sold in a department store.  They never look right.   I have yet to meet a true cowboy who would wear Old Gringo boots in public.   So, what do today’s cowboys wear?
If I were to buy a pair of cowboy boots today, I would probably pick the boots below.  Why?  The lizard skin is gorgeous, the toe isn’t extreme, I could wear them to New York with boot cut jeans and not look like a complete goober.  Trainingheels wouldn’t make TOO much fun of me.  I hope.
Sam Lucchese, Tony Llama, and Joe Justin dominated the boot industry by 1880.  They still have a presence.  A boot from any of these makers will last forever.   In order to compete in the fashion industry Lucchese introduced a line called Charlie 1 Horse by Lucchese.  They have done some fun stuff by introducing slides with the same craftsmanship as their boots.  They are a well made slide.
This is a boot I have to think about. I can’t decide if they are good or not good.
