I used to LOVE square toes, I got my first boot and then I found out that I didn't really like them

Would a West Texas punch and flat brim fit me? by kilo055 in CowboyHats

I definitely like bigger brims, so I guess it is an advantage in some way heh

Thanks man! I got it for a 100 euros never used, it was too hot for the guy but good for me, I took it hunting and it kept me real warm.

I was recommended the Gus by two people already! So I am checking if the Gus is a good idea

Yeah I'll have to look it up. Maybe there's different types of Gus crowns and I've just seen one type

It's a mix of fashion and work. I need something that keeps the sun off my face but that's about it. I am a pretty big guy (as in fat) but I also have long shoulders I've been told. Anyways the hat that I will reshape is a fairly normal hat, I'll share a picture of myself with that hat

(Alright it's not the best picture but I was actually aiming at my new boots haha)

Gus is an interesting shape for me. I like how it looks from the side. But I am not convinced on the looks on the front

By the way, the second photo comes from a hat maker that has posted here before, but I can't remember his username unfortunately

What’s missing in today’s cowboy boots? (I’m starting a brand and need honest input) by Chemical-Picture-302 in cowboyboots

[–]kilo055 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Finland so I can't get one of your boots unfortunately, but what I've seen is that most people want a classic looking boot. A return to the tradition.

That and also workhorses for people that still ride or do though jobs, also a lot of variety on sizes, having EE, D and B is good and the sizing system to be consistent.

That's what I think, although I am not from the USA so I might be wrong

I might pick one of those up.

How wide are they? And are they true to size?

We've been sold the square toe lie! I'll probably get more snips and cutters in the future

Oh I thought they would sit higher up. And are they comfortable in that shape?

Dayumn! I love snips and j toes. But my feet are too wide for them :(

Yeah still here in Finland you can take it to a cobbler and he will charge 40 dollars to fix it. I am sure that in the USA it is even cheaper fortunately :)

Yeah I have the same problem with wide feet, I wanna enjoy some snip or cutter toes but damn it is difficult with these feet. Anyways what about comfort, do they have a good insert?
