i wear Ariat mostly. Ramblers for casual stuff and Workhogs at work. I don't usually do boots for dressy occasions but I've considered a pair of Luchesses or Dan Posts.

I just got a pair of Noconas and really like them so far. Only complaint is that I found out my right foot is not as thick too to bottom as my left so there is a minor fit issue (left pops more than right putting them on).

bought the earl by tecovas last year (roper style) ... bourbon calf color ... very satisfied with it ... very supple leather and fit is normal ... they sell direct only, so the price is a bit cheaper than what you'd pay retail ... wanted a darker boot, so i bought the shane model by lucchese, also a roper style ... chocolate color ... chose the shane over the tecovas since the shane is a touch more rounded at the toe ... leather is not as supple, but is already starting to break in a bit (i'm assuming it's probably a difference in the way the leather is treated) ... i'm not a huge boot guy, but i didn't want to buy some ankle high boot or chukka boot, so i bought a couple of pairs of roper boots ... satisfied with both ... tecovas are $225 and the shane's are $315 ...

Haha I can't say you're lying.

The try hard 'cowboy' look is definitely apparent in the area.

But I've been wearing this shite since I can remember. My dad was a Texas Ranger and had my arse in wranglers and boots from as long ago as I can remember.

I'll never forget the first kid I ran into at Baylor who had a brand new pair of Luccheses on, asked him where he got em and what they were and he couldn't even pronounce the brand. I'd imagine that's the case on about 50 percent or more of those idiots driving a beamer with a riding heel.

What size boot do you wear?

8-1/2 D.

My Ariats were too narrow.

I have a pair of Double H that I bought earlier this year after wearing Ariat for a long time. My ariats were more comfortable from the very start but my HH only took me a few days of all day wear to break in and now I absolutely love them. Very comfortable, a little bit heavier than my previous, and look really good as a daily boot with jeans and pants outside of slacks. I wasn't fond of square toe but that's majority of boots now so I just said F it and now I like them. Mine have the ICE sole on the bottom which is slip resistant so it's good for job sites and whatnot (they make both steel toe and regular, mine are the regular). I'm about to buy the exact same pair because I like them so much and I wear them 7 days a week. I think I paid $215 for them? Oh, -and the roper style heal is much more comfortable than some of the other high heel boots. AND Double H is made in the USA, so they'll have my business.

This is the exact pair I have

Just buy you a pair of Luchesse 1883's and call it a day. You can usually find good deals on them and they'll last you for years.

I wear the farm and ranch Wellington from Georgia Boot everyday to work. I've had my current pair for just under a year; they're beat to hell and back but still have a good grip to them and they're really comfortable. For $160, you really can't beat it, if you ask me.

If you have to ask a message board what kind of boots look best, do yourself a favor and skip out on wearing boots. This isn't a fashion show

I have a pair of squared Ariats I wear when out at the plants and an old pair pointed of justin I wear out

Twisted X are super comfortable but didn't hold up for me.

I wear these Georgias to work now. I'm in the office most of the day and occasionally have to go to the yard where steel toes are required. They are relatively inexpensive, steel toe, and I can take them on and off pretty easy at my desk.

So based upon what I researched, here's what I like:

Lucchese "Shane"



Nocona #MD5220 Testa Pria Let's Rodeo Cowboy Boots



Nocona #NB2007 Antique Tan Imperial Calf Gentlemen's Boots



Olathe Boots CB4 Classic Cowboy



Double H #DH1802 - 10" Super-Lite Wide Square Toe Roper



In terms of these choices, for those of you have more experience with wearing boots, which one is the best "value" when factoring in comfort, style and durability?

The Shane's are the only decent looking ones. Check out the double h I posted.
