Having once been a working ranch hand I can tell you that if you spend 12 hours a day in the saddle there is no better footwear for that work.

Can you explain ?     I don't get it.  🤔

Hey Wrench maybe you ought to get a pair of boots. They would come in handy while to listen to the bs stories everyone has on why their boat needs to be repaired.

Come on down to my neck of the woods and I can point them out all day long! lol That and girls wearing shorts with cowboy boots as well.

I can't be a cowboy.  I'm genetically altered so cowboy boots don't fit me.  I have real high arches and my foot won't make it into them.  Lucky I guess😂

Never tried cowboy boots, but have had those same issues with knee high rubber boots. I just stopped wearing them.

Quick story. There is a public archery range in Columbia at the VFW hall. We were out there shooting one evening. Probably about 12 guys. A blond haired woman pulls up in a pickup truck with camo trim along running boards edged with a little pink. She get out and is wearing a baby blue satin miniskirt dress with lace collar and trim. Also a pair of dark blue cowboy boots. She pulls out her bow and three arrows from the truck. Takes a spot on the 30 yd target, puts one arrow on the string, uses her right boot as a quiver for the other two. She then shoots all three within a 2 inch circle and goes down pulls her arrows and then leaves.  I can't remember, but she did have a bumper sticker like I'll kill them you grill them.

Many a man on that line were questioning their life choices in mates at that time .

Just simply they are better with stirrups.

I wear Rubber Boots a lot Deer and Turkey hunting mainly because I don’t like wet.

I have never understood the cowboy boot thing.   It's a lame fashion statement that makes no sense at all.   Even for a real cowboy, that has to be among the worst possible choice of footwear.   Only a slight step above a pair of flip-flops. 

Cowboy boots were not developed as a fashion statement.  Kind of like blue jeans.  But they both are in today's world.

It's a trendy thing among the younger crowd. A lot of my classmates were doing it 10 years ago, I don't know the reasoning behind it. Probably the same reason some people wear their hat backwards. I do it occasionally to keep mud off my pants.

I wear pull-on (not real cowboy boots, per se) Wellington style boots for a couple reasons. They're usually waterproof for one, and with your pants pulled down over them, you will not get fescue seeds, sawdust, burrs, molten metal, or other trash down in them. Crap stuck to my socks drives me absolutely nuts, can't stand it.
