Cowboy boots

i recycled my elephants after over 30 years.  dig the color of yer elephants!

My Justin AQHA (American Quarter Horse Association)  square toes. Got them at the Justin Store in Fort Worth - definitely a cool boot "dungeon" if you ever find yourself there. Had them since 2010, but they haven't seen a ton of use ever since I left the office life.  Great boots and vey comfy. Square toes might be a "fashionable" boot, but man are they easy to wear.

Careful.  You're about to enter…

The DANGER ZONE!

Going to Phoenix in a few days, is there any shop worth visiting there?
Will finally get my first pair

[mikebarhoot]

looks like they have the typical chain stores.  of which, i like Boot Barn cause they still carry a few made in US brands (including denim ie Roundhouse), and Obenaufs as well as Beck4.

@Chris:

Now that you live in San Antonio, Mike, you really should make a trip to Little's Boot Company.  They have a really impressive showroom filled with custom pairs they've done over the years.  It's kinda overwhelming, actually.

and they are GREAT people

@mikebarhoot:

Had to take my Luchesse's in for repair. Ungh!!!  6-10 weeks.

Shipped today!  Should have em next week !

[ROman]

I have about 9 - 12 pairs of boots, I'll put up a picture soon. 3 are Luchesse, others are usual brands, mostly which I can wear going through TSA precheck without taking them off.

So this is what I ended up with:

More info please….

[Red Devil]

I was looking for a classic pair in calf leather initially, but size availability  dictated otherwise.
Very happy with these in any case 
Already thinking of a next pair… probably tooled leather, I can see how far this can go

@Red:

I can see how far this can go 

Good maxim…..

@Giles:

Good maxim…..

Spoken like someone who experienced this as many times if not more than I have 

This pair comes from Heritage Boots, http://heritageboot.com/ and is this one specifically:

http://heritageboot.com/style/heritage-men/cognac-caiman-boot/

Originally I had planned on this one:

http://heritageboot.com/style/heritage-men/blood-simple-2/

But they didn't have my size.

Another contender was this pair:

http://heritageboot.com/style/heritage-men/the-triad-boot/

But alas no size either, at least not for now. They do have me on the list to contact when they make more of them in my size
