5 Things Wearing Cowboy Boots Says About A Person

What are the values and traits of people who wear cowboy boots? I think it comes down to five things and I was inspired to talk about this due to my conversation with Will Roman of Chisos Boots here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZLEp3aHgqaDf6c

It means "I'm comfortable in my own skin!"

[@JeremiahCraig]

And anything is possible when you feel like that!

Cowboy boots means confidence, especially if you don't live in the south or the West. The thing is though, there's lots of people who want to wear them but don't have the confidence. Stop worrying what people think.

[@JeremiahCraig]

Exactly!!

[@Numl0k]

I had to get over that hurdle. I’ve worn boots for most of my life, and had wanted a pair of cowboy boots for years. My dad has worn them for longer than I’ve been alive, but I didn’t feel like I could pull them off. A couple years ago I said fuck it, I’m getting a pair. It made sense because I was in school for welding and kept burning laces on lace up boots, so I had an excuse. Once I pulled them on for the first time I stopped caring. I wear them every day now, unless I’m doing something that requires more specific footwear (hunting and hiking in rough terrain needs a bit more ankle support). Sadly I can’t wear them at work since we require lace up boots at my company, but I put them on as soon as I kick my work boots off

[@colehunt7371]

My style is definitely out of the ordinary cowboy boots, flare blue jeans, band T-shirts, and a black denim or brown bomber jacket and I always feel confident so I guess you’re right I mean I came from Texas but I live in Colorado now

Cowboy boots actually became part of my identity. I remember walking into my first day of highschool back in 2009ish and wearing my cowboy boots. The kids in my school had never seen anything like it so I got heckled a lot. Still wore my boots everyday, and the heckling stopped when the kids realized I didn’t care what they thought. That was also around the time the country music craze started to come around and all the girls were into it, and eventually other guys would wear boots too. My nickname ‘Boots’ still follows me well over a decade later. Of course I still wear my boots.

Cowboy boots are the most comfortable footwear on the planet. If I ever was going to run a marathon I'd do it in a pair of boots!!!

[@edder7157]

Actually, the cowboy boot, like cowboys, was a thing introduced to the US by Mexico. As vaqueros predate cowboys by almost 100yrs. Remember, Texas to California, and up through Colorado to Nevada was Mexico first. We adapted the ways and wisdom of the vaquero to our own needs and style, and shared those adaptations with them. Both the cowboy and vaquero evolved together and separately simultaneously.

They're in my boot group on Facebook if you want to connect and find some encouragement. jeremiahcraig.com/bootgroup

[@KaraokeJohn92]

Too bad. Don’t let people control your life like that. Go out and buy a pair and be proud!

[@southernfossiladventures]

Just buy some and wear them, who cares what anyone thinks, they’re incredibly durable and comfortable

[@-Kamal-]

On the contrary, no one knows until they try it. I've known of Americans in Europe who gain exceptional admiration in cowboy/cowgirl boots.

Amen brotha, south Texas man myself. I haul horses to every major city you can think of and I have developed a reputation for my boots and starched jeans in places that it ain’t common.

Ive been wearing Cowboy boots everyday since grade 9 high school Rock concerts going to Work Riding my bike in the Wind Church Camping all 4 seasons here in Canada the list goes on Im 65 now & I will wear my boots till its my time & the Lord takes me home

[@warrenpuckett4203]

Cowboy boots are quite practical when riding a motorcycle. As someone who rode a motor cycle to a business where the other workers were trying figure out where to park in the Volvo? Well did get few jabs. That is until I told them it only takes 20 minutes for a 15 mile ride for me to get to work on the 405. Then I took them off and took my penny loafers out of the drawer in my desk. Removed my coveralls. Hung my suit coat up. Straitened my tie. Went work doing my IT support job. They also had a shine that would make the 1st SGT smile.

[@tsteel80]

I just got a new pair for my 40th birthday. First time I've had a pair since I was a teenager and I'm really looking forward to wearing them. All these things you say are completely accurate. You don't have to be a stereotype to wear cowboy boots. I still wear tennis shoes and cargo shorts for work.

[@joncerda351]

I grew up on a farm in a country,worked on my grandparents farm and other people's farm and I always dream of living a cowboy life. I have my boots,buckles cowboy hat ect. Even though I am not a cowboy in person,in my heart I am. Roy Rodgers, Gene, John etc are my cowboy heros. These the guys I look up to. This is who I am.

[@oaxacanboi9318]

Same in the first part... I also grew up on my grandparents farm sadly had to move to the city

[@carilynjurgeson6178]

I'm late to seeing this great video. For me, its a nostalgic connection to my dad who wore his boots and Stetson hat every day. He was very much that person who was respectful, kind and generous, but also at times had to put his foot down. Now I also love the look and comfort. I don't care if I look different. TFS

[@BadZipness]

I'm an everyday cowboy boots guy and I'm from Europe. Can't imaging to not wear those. Feels wrong to put on sneakers... Plan was to get me an pair or two of Tecovas in May, but was unable to travel to Texas. Hopefully in September in Oklahoma...

[@isai1331]

Yeah, I like to wear oxford shoes, military, and cowboy boots but when I put on the only pair of sneakers that I have... something is WRONG inside of me

[@JeremiahCraig]

I agree. Sneakers feel wrong if you're not running or working out

[@brianolsen9286]

BadZipness If you’re in Oklahoma, look into some boot brands with some history of bootmaking. Nothing against Tecovas, but if you’re traveling to the US to a state with a ranching/cowboying history, you can do better. Go to boot stores, ask questions, and try on a bunch of boots.

[@dillonmckenzie8028]

I agree, Honchos or Olathes. Once you've worn handmade boots you'll never want to put your feet in nothin else

[@BadZipness]

@@brianolsen9286 Thanks for the advice, probably will get a nice pair or two of tecovas for everyday wearing and a pair of another brand for special occasions. Are you from oklahoma? Do you have a good advice for me in terms of boots and where to buy them and also oklahoma in general?

[@tamarazawada]

I bought my first pair about half a year ago when I decided to learn horse riding. I fell in love and since then I wear them EVERY SINGLE DAY. All my other awesome footwear I own must be very jealous because all I want to wear is cowgirl boots. I love your attitude and I'm a new fan. Subscribed!

If you really want to get their attention, make sure to wear the Wranglers, a long sleeved Wrangler shirt buttoned up, and a buckaroo hat. On a cool day you can add a Filson vest.

Left city and went to outback learn to work on the farms and ride bulls ..get involved in mud..taught me a lot about myself ..and when I wear them It gives me soo much confidence. every word is all true what you said brother.

[@juangonzalez3034]

Cowboy boots also go with pretty much anything, my favorite is a death metal tee shirt and jeans.

[@DeepFixation]

Recently started wearing cowboy boots daily, normally I just wear them when I'm riding my horse. I've found I feel more put together and a little badass 😎 if I'm being honest lol. Can't beat cowboy boots, bootcut jeans and a black tank top. That's classic to me and I feel confident.

[@H-sgracesavedme1711]

I’m done with his reasons. Cowboy boots are worn for many reasons ESPECIALLY if you live out in the country. You don’t only own a pair but like 3-5 pairs!! And in different colors and skins. I can agree with the last three though.

3-5 pairs of boots is perfect! I did a video on that too you might like kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5WohZKBr7iHebc. Thanks for watching

Cowboy boots used to be very heavy when I got my first pair when I was 11, I wore them again they were a little heavier but I tolerated them. Now tennis shoes feel oddly light and just don’t feel right for my feet. I wear cowboy boots everywhere, helping someone move, in the city, in the country, fishing, school, and literally everywhere. I just love how they are water resistant, I used to cross water regardless if I had cowboy boots on and it would sink my shoes. Cowboy boots are just good for everything.
