I haven't the slightest clue why, but recently I've had a desire to purchase a pair of cowboy boots.

It really doesn't fit with my style, which is exclusively khakis, collared shirt, fedora, but it is one of those itches... :kick:

I am just lucky I haven't happened across my size yet. How bad an idea is it? I was hoping I could depend on The Fedora Lounge to finally convince me not to go through with it and drop the idea all together.

This woman's opinion is, when a man is in cowboy boots and hat he is immediately at least 25% sexier -- at least my opinion. It's an attitude. I just recently bought some ladies Dan Post boots and I am AMAZED how they were comfortable first time I wore them. Not a high heel -- I think like 1 1/2 inches -- support my foot. When they fit right your foot kind of just "snaps" in there. AND IF YOU ever have acilles heel pain that heel will help it a lot. I worked with a man who had heel pain so bad they wanted to give him cortisone shots in his heel. He started wearing cowboy boots and it completely solved his problem.

Since it's "Black Friday" (not that I will go near a mall for the next 60-days), I am wearing my vintage 1960s black Nocona boots. I don't wear black boots very often, but these (and a pair of El Dorados) are my favorites. May not be easy to see, but the stitching is green and yellow - nice contrast on the black.

Welcome, any woman complimentary to a man in a hat and boots rises to the top of my chart!

Killer boots! That stitching really takes them to the next level.

I've been told that he made boots parttime that were sold at both Billy Martin's & Judy Buie's shops back in the day.

Very cool find, HJ. Billy Martin's, at one time carried a pretty exclusive line of boots made by some of the bigger names of the era. They carried TL el Rey's exclusive to them and other makers made them boots as well. Would love to find some exclusive to Buie's shop. Didn't you post a pair some time back?

I have a pair of eagles all trimmed out in green that are unmarked & identical to a pair in the writeup on Buie featured in "Texas Boots". I always thought they were probably made under contract for her by TL. Reitzel always thought Judy Buie had a business relationship with Enid Justin, so depending on the timing they could be unmarked Noconas.
