The Evolution and Fit of Men's Cowboy Boots
Cowboy boots have come a long way since their origins nearly 200 years ago, when they were first popularized by American cowboys. Despite evolving styles, two mainstays have remained at the forefront: the classic men's cowboy boot and the roper boot. The classic cowboy boot is known for its high shaft and angled heel, making it perfect for long hours in the saddle, while the roper boot offers a lower shaft and heel, ideal for working on the ground.
Classic vs. Modern Men's Cowboy Boots
The classic men's cowboy boot is instantly recognizable by its mid-calf shaft, often adorned with decorative cutouts and stitching. Designed to withstand the rigors of ranch life, these cowboy boots feature a durable toe box, usually pointed or rounded, and a heel that is one to two inches tall. These traditional Western boots are perfect for the ranch, rodeo, or simply embracing Western fashion.
Modern Ariat cowboy boots offer a wider range of styles and toe shapes to suit every preference. From square toe and round toe to wide square, R toe, and cutter toe, there's a cowboy boot style to match your personal taste while still providing the durability and comfort you expect from a quality boot. Explore our collection of square-toe cowboy boots to find the perfect pair.
Finding the Perfect Cowboy Boot
When trying on your cowboy boots, it's important to wear the socks you'll typically use with them. Once you've slid on the cowboy boots, make sure the balls of your feet are resting in the widest part of the boot. A well-fitted cowboy boot should feel snug across the top with a bit of pressure.
To check the length, place your thumb horizontally across the top of the cowboy boot. Your big toe should be just beneath your thumb; if there's too much or too little room, you may need to adjust the size. When you walk, expect some slippage, with about a quarter to a half-inch of space between your heel and the insole. As the leather and insole break in, this slippage will reduce, and your Ariat cowboy boots will feel custom-made.
