Review: Ariat Empresario Cowboy Boot

Image
I've had these boots since 2012. They are snip toed cowboy boots. They feature full grain foot and shaft, with intricate embroidery. The color is listed as "washed out adobe". The Style number is 10009554. The outsole is rubber with "Goodyear" welt construction that allows for re-soling. These boots are quite beautiful. I use them as my "dress shoes". I have worn these to weddings, parties, and many vacations. People usually can tell that I'm a Texan. I like looking the part. Waiting to catch a plane, sporting my Ariats. These boots are also great for riding, if you can bear to get them dirty. The snip toe and slight heel fit great in a stirrup. The boot has a nice weight to it, aiding in keeping the heels down. The shaft is firm, and doesn't bunch up. The boot is a 13 inches tall, which allows it to sit properly while in the saddle without catching on anything.  I enjoy wearing these boots to the rodeo. People often thin they...

Review: Tony Lama 3R Cowboy Boots

Image
I purchase these boots in the summer of 2014 as a graduation gift to myself. They are the Tony Lama 3R Saddle Brown Travis boots (Style#  RR2015L ). When I purchased these, they were on clearance, so I paid $162.55. They tend to run about $190. These boots are quite tall, at least for me and my short shins. They come up to the bottom of my knee with maybe an inch or two of space between the top of the boot and my knee cap. The uppers measure 15 inches. It's a square toed boot with Mahogany leather welt, white double row stitching, and a pink flower design. The insole is orthotic and the outsole is made of rubber. My boots are an 8.5 B in size. This is pretty standard for me. I usually am a B in boots, and I wear an 8 to 9 depending on the brand. So I would say that these are true to fit. I have ridden in these boots twice. The rubber sole is a bit much for the stirrups in my opinion, but it does work and does not pinch. The upper part of the boot is too tall for long tra...

Review: Women's Justin Gypsy Boot

Image
As per Boot Barn's Listing: Go western with the authentic western boots you can trust. Justin delivers with their Gypsy line. These boots have an 8" shaft height, a walking heel, and round toe. They are equipped with the J-Flex comfort system which generates return energy by the leather-covered cushioned insole and triple density insole board. Pair with true denim and a plaid button up for a complete outfit. The removable orthotic insert gives an extra layer of cushioning for extra comfort.   Justin Boot's, brand new.
