It's all about Cowboy Boots And Spurs

 

Vintage Cowboy Boots

If you had to find a symbol for the Wild West, it could easily be the cowboy boot. Surprisingly enough, many vintage cowboy boots made it through the rough times endured by early cowboys, and have survived to become a great collectible item today. Many of them date back to early in the 1800s, and some have even passed from person to person with their story and history intact. If you're interested in vintage cowboy boots, however, you're going to have to spend some time searching, and also some serious money - they sell from around $1000 upwards.

Finding Vintage Cowboy Boots

Some western apparel shops have a special vintage cowboy boots section, so it's worth taking a look. There are also a number of Internet sites that specialize in selling vintage cowboy boots, so do a search and see what you can find. Nowadays the interest in vintage cowboy boots has spread far beyond the USA, with collectors in places like Australia and Europe. There's a certain style and even sex appeal attached to these old boots, which is part of the reason they're so popular with collectors.

Most of the older cowboy boots are quite tall, ranging from 13 to 18 inches high. They also have 1 to 2 inch heels, and these are often quite intricately designed. Some of the most prized vintage cowboy boots still have their original spur straps, as well as brass conchose, chains and jingle bobs. Boots in such a well-preserved state are very hard to find, though, and certainly are some of the most expensive.

Collecting Vintage Cowboy Boots

One of the good things about vintage cowboy boots is the variety. They come in all sorts of colors, some monogrammed, many decorated or stamped, and many were custom made. So each pair is usually quite unique. Most have obviously been well worn by their original owners, but there are some pairs that have never been worn. With so much interest in vintage cowboy boots, many collectible stores have begun adding them to their collections.

Of course, if you just want a stylish pair of cowboy boots to wear with your western gear, vintage cowboy boots may be a bit pricey. You might be better off with a good pair of Justin cowboy boots, or perhaps Lucchese western boots. Both of these companies make cowboy boots that resemble vintage styles. By shopping around you can easily find a new pair of boots which closely resembles one of the more popular vintage designs.

Custom Cowboy Boots

Another option is to buy custom made retro vintage design cowboy boots. A number of quality firms offer this service. You can customize them in any way you prefer, and then they're made to match your request. You can buy custom made men's and ladies vintage design boots. However you will need to allow some time for the boots to be made and delivered, which could take up to 12 weeks.

Still, if you want a pair of boots with some history and maybe even a story you can share with your friends and family, vintage cowboy boots may still be the best choice for you.
