Take this critical first step if you want to make shopping for
the best mens leather cowboy boots fast and easy.
There are a lot of different styles of mens leather cowboy boots
and boot brands to choose from. Wellingtons, ropers, crepes, professional
riding, classic and exotics are all styles of western and cowboy
boots made of leather for men. The leather boot style that you
choose is dictated by how you’re going to use the boot.
So your first step in proper boot selection is know what you plan
to use the boot for. This will make your choice a lot easier.
Also some manufacturers offer styles the others don’t. The
style you choose will also help you narrow down which manufacturer
will suit your needs best.
For example, if you need a quick on-off leather cowboy boot you
plan to use for work, I recommend a Wellington or a roper style.
These boots have a more rounded toe and don’t have as high
a boot shaft or heel. These western cowboy styled boots are extremely
comfortable and you can easily wear them all day without getting
foot ache. Plus they tend to run cheaper in price. Timberland,
Georgia and Wolverine all make good inexpensive Wellingtons. Ariat,
Justin and Durango make good roper boots. Crepe style boots with
their thick rubber soles would also fit into this work category.
Ariat has a line of the finest crepes I’ve seen.
If you need a cowboy boot because you are a professional rider,
look to Ariat first. They have a lot of extra technology designed
into their boots that can help you stay comfortable for longer
periods of time riding in the stirrups.
If you are looking at more traditional mens western leather boots,
take a look at Lucchese, Justin, Ariat, or Dan Post men’s
boots. These boot makers have been around a long time and offer
many classic leather cowboy styles.
And if you want a boot with a lot of style and fashion, look
at the exotic leather boots from Tony Lama. I’ve personally
owned a pair of Lama bull skin boots that I wore hard every day
for two and a half years before I needed to get them resoled.
One last consideration when looking at leather cowboy boots is
what type of leather you want. Soft suede leather picks up water
spots. Other leathers are harder, shiny and slick. These when
treated correctly will repel water. So if you are getting leather
western work boots and you plan to be working around liquid, find
boots that won’t soak fluid in and treat them with a leather
conditioner/wax-waterproofing product to make sure.
