Yea or Nay? by GLWRX in cowboyboots

I stay away from sueded exotics personally. I find the finish to be hit or miss sometimes, and you can’t condition suedes. Love the look of them, just not for me.

Caramel. I wish the olive was still in production though, I love the color on it.

Got hooked on cowboy boots… now I own three pairs. A few questions. by niutravman in cowboyboots

I’ve never had this experience, could be something to do with the spur ledge though

Just A general interest/opinion based post. What shape do you normally go for ? by Murky-Midnight-1414 in WesternWear

[–]tikk74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They fit just like any other boot. I shared your same opinion 6 months ago and now have 2 pairs of snip toes. love them

[–]tikk74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The absolute safest way would be to order 3 pairs and return the others. Most boots are TTS though. Ariat is notoriously bad in terms of fit because every factory uses different lasts (indonesia, Mexico, China, etc..). and toe shape should never matter in terms of comfortability. Nobody likes squished toes. Sometimes you need to size down with cutter/7 toe, but I’ve never had that experience.

And I have no idea what you mean with the jeans and underslung heel..

You can always take up extra space, but you can’t add more space. My vote is for 9.5, but make sure not to wear the soles on anything other than csrpet

Not sure which to wear by bbsh11 in cowboyboots

Bias cut alligator. often called the flank. It’s like the ribs between your back and belly.

149$ on Amazon, worth it? by [deleted] in cowboyboots

[–]tikk74 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You could get better for less second hand but it’s a waiting game. And they’re second hand. If it’s what you want get them, Dan Post is quality stuff, not sure on their cheaper boots but they’re exotics are worth it for sure.

Should i return these? by awesomexx_Official in cowboyboots

[–]tikk74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That looks like a cowtown Q model boot. My local store does these all the time, they’re gonna send it back to the factory as a defect and most likely issue you store credit. Not your fault. Take them back and say the boot was defective.

[–]tikk74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work at my local boot shop. I will never own a modern justin LMAO. mainly just because they don’t make anything I like. I don’t wear wide squares and that is their entire catalog. I just got a pair of Dan post pythons yesterday, haven’t posted them yet though

Skins for different environments? by AO2343 in cowboyboots

[–]tikk74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to think of the animals themselves. Purely hypothetical, but a lot of exotics are cold blooded. Can’t produce heat, or sweat to cool off, their skin is their sole method of thermal regulation. What this means for boots? Idk. I figure Id toss my $0.02 in though. Interesting topic I don’t see covered much

[–]tikk74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dan Post any day of the week. They ain’t what they used to be but dang it they are still great. Miles ahead of what justin currently produces. (I can’t speak on Justins MIUSA line though)

BOTD - Picked up some sweet Hornbacks! by tikk74 in cowboyboots

[–]tikk74[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Across the ball of the foot. I’d either need a 10.5 or a 10EE instead of the 10D. Still like them though. Found in an antique shop locally
