They still wear the same thing. They’re just more comfortable. Maybe things are different among the cowboys of eastern Canada.

My wife always rode with the short zip up ariats unless she was competing

That kind of dress code would not fly in Canada.

Right. And the store full of fancy cowboy boots at Norman's in Havre are just there to gather dust. I spent a good part of my life living and working in Montana cattle country.

School me up... we can go any style and color... probably the only cowboy boots I'm going to ever own.

Ostrich, shark skin, or gator if you wanna be the bell of the ball. Not sure where or when you're coming to the lone star state but I'll be in the Galveston area the end of April through most of May and most of July. Let me know if you wanna slip off for a day of kayak fishing in the bay.

Yes, yes, WTF-no!

Oh ya bud. I spent 7 years in Austin. Ostrich all the way.

I call them my “going to town” boots. Perfect for company Christmas parties, date night, and project proposals.

At one point I had some Sea Bass boots, but I got pulled into a concrete pour helping out my guys, and they were collateral damage.

I've never seen more Ostrich leather than at an RRC hearing.

RRC?

 

[Deleted member 28227]

RRC?

Texas Railroad Commission, the governing body of OG in Texas.

Don’t forget - ostrich looks good in sheep camp, too.

I don’t care what ya’ll say… Wifey thinks I’m sexy as hell in my going to town boots! 60% of the time they work ALL the time!

Mark my vote as a pair of Emmet’s in Mahogany.

Personal opinion so take it with a grain of salt, but I think the slightly narrower square toe of the Jackson looks way classier than the wider square of the Doc. Black leather is probably dressier, but I just love the patina brown leather develops and the character it has, so if I was going to have one pair of boots they'd definitely be brown.

One other note: Rubber soles are certainly more practical, but when you're cutting a rug on the dancefloor, a leather sole is money.

Ostrich does add a bit of class to camp and goes well with Kryptek.

Ostrich are very thin and soft and they look like you’re trying too hard. Anything that came from a reptile is only for Mexican drug lords.

My wedding boots are rattlesnake...

Edit: I did grow up in the emerald triangle. Maybe you're onto something .

 

[Deleted member 28227]

whatever you get, remember to wear your pant legs INSIDE your boots.

That's the Texas way.

Yeah for better or worse the Texas roots run deep... I do qualify as a Son of the Republic. Maybe it's time to embrace my heritage.
