<p>Below are the boots men from 9 to 99 are wearing this season.</p>
<p> <em>Ankle Boots. </em>A funky but classy departure from standard dress shoes, ankle boots keep your look professional and at the same time, creative. Wear these to work or to dressy occasions.</p>
<p><em> </em><em>Suede Boots. </em>More casual than the pairs made of shiny leather, suede boots are a great addition to your shoe stash because they go perfectly with cords or jeans, and are great for weekend wear.</p>
<p><em> </em><em>Western Boots. </em>Love the western style but don&#8217;t want to take the cowboy look all the way? Get westerns! They&#8217;re unique and edgy, and come in many different styles.</p>
<p> <em>Casual Boots. </em>Are you a jeans and t-shirt guy? The chukka or sport style may just be what you need. More of a flannel guy? You may be better off with hiking boots. Whether you&#8217;re refined or sporty (or maybe just lazy &#8211; which deserves a category of its own), there&#8217;s a pair of casual boots that suits your style and budget.</p>
<p> <em>Motorcycle Boots. </em>Whether you actually own a Harley or just want tough-looking boots, this pair will be a macho addition to your shoe collection.</p>
<p> <em>Dress Boots.</em> At work, put your best foot forward with dress boots. These look professional and stylish – two words you most likely wouldn&#8217;t think about when talking about cowboy boots for sale.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Forget the farm. Knee-high cowboy boots for women are not just practical for workwear, they&#8217;re also flattering and hip, and they warm the legs during incredibly cold days. But if you&#8217;re a woman, all these reasons pale next to this two &#8211; knee-high boots make the legs look thin and long; and they cover leg flaws, too! </p>
<p>When worn with knee-length or mini-skirts, they look sophisticated and sexy. Paired with a long, flowy dress, they give your outfit a feminine and romantic allure. But there&#8217;s a catch &#8211; finding knee-high cowboy boots for women will take some work. Below are some tips to point you in the right direction.</p>
<ol>
<li><em>Stretch boots look great on large legs! </em>Frustrated by how chunky your legs look? Wear stretch boots! You won&#8217;t find it easy to put on your first pair of stretch boots, but there&#8217;s a way to go about it. Scrunch down the shafts &#8211; the same way you would with your stocking &#8211; and insert your feet into the boots. Then, pull on the shafts. There! Slips like a dream, doesn&#8217;t it?</li>
<li><em>Slender heels fit slender legs like a dream! </em>Structure and bulk are both no-no&#8217;s for the chunky-legged. But on women with slender ankles, they complement the legs perfectly! Go for slouch boots and western styles. Or, to add more oomph to the day&#8217;s outfit, pick a pair with more slender heels.</li>
<li><em>Tucks go with the skinny.</em> If you&#8217;re thinking of tucking your jeans into your footwear, stick to skinny jeans. Anything that&#8217;s more wider-legged will only create a &#8220;ballooning&#8221; effect.</li>
</ol>
<p>Knee-high cowboy boots for women are very versatile. You can wear them to work or to a night out with friends. You can go casual or formal. Or, you can wear them to add a touch of the country to your city look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Cowboy boots fashion never went out of style. Like all classics, your favorite sturdy but stylish footwear is only bidding it&#8217;s time before it makes a comeback &#8211; and this time it&#8217;s back, bigger and bolder than ever. Here are the top looks in cowboy boots fashion.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"> <em>Under the Jeans. </em>Wear your boots this way with wide-leg or flared jeans. These two jean types complement the look best because more tapered jeans will make them look bulky because of the boot&#8217;s wideness around the leg. The toe of your boots peeking out underneath your jeans will make your legs look incredibly long and thin!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em> </em><em>Over the Jeans. </em>Cowboy boots go perfectly with skinny jeans or regular straight legged denims. Wear a structured bag and a leather jacket to keep the country look city-chic.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em> </em><em>With Florals. </em>Want to wear a flowery dress but still keep things casual? Pair your loose, flowy floral dress with cowboy boots! The look works best for knee-length dresses. When it comes to your choice of colors, stick to the basics like brown and black. They go with most dress types, styles, and colors.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em> </em><em>With Leggings. </em>This is one of the best ways to rock your cowboy boots, but be sure to keep all the colors in your ensemble simple. The boots make a strong statement by themselves &#8211; pick styles and colors that complement &#8211; not compete &#8211; with your boots.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em> </em><em>With Tights. </em>Tights look great with boots. You can wear them with a long shirt or a cute spring dress. Or, you can jazz it up with a tunic. Whatever you choose to pair with your tights and footwear, you can be sure you&#8217;ll get compliments on your choice of outfits.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"> Cowboy boots fashion is like your favorite pizza, the Beatles, or that hairdresser you&#8217;ve been going to for the past five years &#8211; they&#8217;re an oldie, but a goodie.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"> Do you have a little cowgirl or cowboy at home? Whether it&#8217;s your child or you who&#8217;s into wild West fashion, there&#8217;s no doubting children&#8217;s cowboy boots will prove to be a versatile addition to your little one&#8217;s closet. Children&#8217;s cowboy boots come in all sizes, styles, and colors. But how do you make sure the boots you take to the register fit those little feet perfectly? </p>
<h3>Below are some tips for buying children&#8217;s cowboy boots.</h3>
<p><em>1. Go boot-shopping in the afternoon! </em>During mornings, your <strong>child&#8217;s feet</strong> will be at its smallest and thinnest while during the latter part of the day, your child&#8217;s feet will have swelled a bit from all that running and playing. If your child tries on boots in the morning, the shoes may end up too tight. If your child tries on boots in the evening, the pair may end up too lose. Do your boot-buying in the afternoon.</p>
<p><em>2. Measure, measure, measure!</em> Ask the store for a measuring device. Take note of your child&#8217;s foot size and foot shape. Some boots have a square toe while others have a pointy toe. Make room for toe shape in your measurement.</p>
<p><em>3. Try before you buy! </em>The best way to test a shoe&#8217;s fit is, naturally, to wear it. Let your child try on a pair. Roll up the pant leg all the way to the knees, and help your child pull on the boots. Then, ask your child to stand and wiggle his toes. If he can do some toe wiggling while he walks, and if the seams are snug while the boot legs stay a little loose, snap that pair up right off. They&#8217;re perfect for your little one.</p>
<p> Buying children&#8217;s cowboy boots can be quite tricky because the last thing you want to do is waste money on a pair your child can&#8217;t wear for long. But with these tips to help you along, there&#8217;s no way you can get the boot-buying wrong!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As Cowboy eluded to in his first post, cowboy boots have been around for a long time. Shoes have been worn for thousands of years, and boots offered protection to the wearer&#8217;s entire lower leg, not just the foot. As horses were domesticated and ridden, having a shoe with a heel was imperative in order to keep the rider’s foot in the stirrup. Developed from calvary boots, the modern cowboy boot has come a long way, especially in the last 100 years.</p>
<div id="attachment_69" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 64px"><img class="size-full wp-image-69" title="RSARThumb_35751p" src="http://thecowboyboot.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/RSARThumb_35751p.jpg" alt="Image Courtesy of Boot City" width="54" height="95" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Image Courtesy of Boot City</p></div>
<p>It&#8217;s thought that as cowboys earned more pay, the demand for better boots rose. This meant stitching and design, better leather, higher heels and an overall fancy touch to what were simple and dull calvary boots. Just like the cowboys of today, everyone wanted a unique pair of boots that showcased their style. Hyer Brothers Boots and Justin Boots are among the best-known American boot makers of the late 19th century. Both started a trend that would last longer than their lifetimes, and reach farther than either could have imagined. Hyer and Justin&#8217;s meager beginnings brought cowboy boots into the mainstream &#8212; today millions worldwide, of every culture, love their boots.</p>
<p>Famous Ties: President Bush (father and son), President Clinton, President Reagan, Bob Dylan, Johnny Depp and Arnold Schwarzenegger have sported cowboy boots.</p>
