My son works at Boot Barn so there are times he can get Cody James for 60% off. That's a stupid good deal. I have a pair from their "Blue Collection", I think that is their higher end line. They are the BBH3, made in Mexico. They are honestly the best pair of boots I have ever owned and I've had quite a few from every major brand.
Are these sized like Ariats? Meaning, what ever size you wear in Ariat, get Cody James in the same size? I wear 9 1/2 D in Dan Post and Lucchese, but I wear a 9D in Ariats. I would like to order a pair of Cody James, I just don't know what size to get. How do those Cody James compare to your Ariats? Would you get them in the same size? Thanks!
Had these boots for 1 1/2 years. Best boot I've ever had. Try to go get the same ones. Only had square toe. So I bought something different. that was round toe their fault for not giving me what I want
Lucas white is right about the shaft being to wide. I have a pair of ostrich square toe and I have to wear wide jeans so I don't look like a dork. They're comfy, but nothing like luccheses or tecovas. And I'm pretty sure the heel is made of wood instead of leather. I got them on clearance for $200
I have the Cody James Python boots. They are very comfortable. They smell like leather. They have pull tabs. I have had them for six months. The Boot Barn say they are made at the Dan Post plant in Mexico. The soles are nailed on They have white stitching. They say made in Mexico stamped inside them. They are very comfortable
I'd start with 9.5 One size down is the general rule. You may not wear thst size but that's what I'd start with. If you live close to a boot barn I'd go there and try on a bunch. But if not try a 9.5
@@LoneStarBootReviews thanks! I have a tractor supply and redwing store near me. I’ll go there and ask for some general advice! Thank you! How are the boots holding up so far since 9 months has past?
I actually sent those back because they were too big but they were nice and I would expect then to hold up just fine. They were on par with ariat and they are very durable
I wear a 10 1/2 shoe. For Cody james soft toe I can wear an 8 1/2 or 9. Just fight through the break in period. I do a lot of online shopping and just bought a safety toe in 8 1/2 which was way to small. I went with a 9 1/2. Like he Said. Generality 1 full size down.
@@mundane4082 bought a pair of Cody James off boot barn and I ended up moving on from them. Hard as a rock, moved on to a leather sole pair and love em.
Yes I did notice that but forgot to mention it. Would be good for tucking in jeans. Also they were a little big so a smaller size might reduce that a little. As always thsnks for watching buddy!
I have! The Cuero Eastwood were my second review. I can't post a link here unfortunately. But I am in talks with them to do a second video. Fingers crossed. Thanks for watching!
It's literally almost the same boot as the ariat quickdraw because of the toe and the toe bug and the heel the shaft and the sole is the only thing different
Yes. According to the info i could find, Durango makes Cody James. But if I didn't know that, I would swear this boot was made by ariat. Thanks for watching!
FIrst of all, thanks for watching! Second, I think that will probably be just fine. With these wide square toes you have so much room in the toe box, plus people usually wear a smaller size in boots than they do in shoes.
Thanks for response. Is the color way on these the Xero Gravity Chocolate Western Boots . The colors looked much more vibrant in the photo on sheplers website. Maybe they just use good lighting. The colors seemed to pop more but like em regardless
@@bennicks6821 If I remember correctly, I would say its somewhere in between. You are correct, Sheplers uses really good lighting and professional photographers. I have bad lighting and am not professional lol. I am working on my lighting to hopefully get a better representation here in the near future. Im just tightening everything up now.
Made in China, the leather is likely not very good, and "finished" to make it look like a full grain hide. Liners, even uppers, may be coated or even vinyl - the same mistake old Acme boots made years ago, when they still had decent full leather soled riding boots with wooden pegs. The shape of cheap boots just look clunky, and standard work boots with rubber soles are probably a better option to the cowboy conceit.
They're what you expect from China. I prefer to pay more for materials and quality. The northamerican made boots will last longer and save you money in the long.

Got me the same pairs today !
Just bought a pair today. Very comfortable. Don’t know if they’ll last as long as my ariats (8 years)
How they holding up today

These Cody James are good boots no doubt about it. I'm glad you like them. Sorry they gave you the wrong ones. Hey thanks for watching friend!!

Hey not a bad price though! Yeah I forgot the mention the wide shaft. Thanks for watching man!

Thinking of buying some python Cody James, do you recommend?
I have a pair of engineer boots so far the soles held up well, for steel toes they aren't heavy and have saved my toes from refrigerators
Oh sweet! I need some new steel toes. I need to look into those. Thanks for watching!
@@LoneStarBootReviews I've had them for at least a year and six months. I got them from my local boot barn great video I just subscribed
Thank you so much!
@@andresrangel7731how'd you like them?
Got a pair and very comfortable right out of the box
Great review, Cody James are comfy for sure, I’ve been rocking the moonshine spirits from boot barn would be cool to see you do a review on them 😎
Thanks for watching and thank yiu for the kind words. I do plan to review some of those in the future.
I just got my first pair of Cody James boots good video
Thank you. I was impressed with them for sure!
i just bought some “CODY JAMES MEN'S XERO GRAVITY EMBROIDERED PERFORMANCE BOOTS - MEDIUM TOE” today i’m pretty dang interested to see how they last
Me too! These that I reviewed seemed to be good quality. Please let me know how they hold up!
@@LoneStarBootReviews i’ll keep you updated after a month of wearing them! :) good review btw
@@eyeslikethesky1392 thanks so much!
@@LoneStarBootReviews anytime friend
Any advice on getting a size? I wear a 10.5 regularly in tennis shoes and this would be a first pair of cowboy boots
I'd start with 9.5
One size down is the general rule. You may not wear thst size but that's what I'd start with. If you live close to a boot barn I'd go there and try on a bunch. But if not try a 9.5

Have you reviewed the Ropers American Patriot?
Unfortunately no I haven't. I would love to though
Yeah man thanks for the video great job👍
Thank you! That means alot
Good video. What’s the price of the boots? I haven’t tried a square toe boot yet, so this might be a good option.
There's a link in description to sheplers. Under $80!
If I didn't know better I would have sworn that these were made by Ariat
Good review. These are probably made at the same Chinese factory as the ariats. The shafts look really wide and definitely make your jeans stick out
Yes I did notice that but forgot to mention it. Would be good for tucking in jeans. Also they were a little big so a smaller size might reduce that a little. As always thsnks for watching buddy!
And hey, for under $80 I still think they are a really good boot!
Have you reviewed Cuero boots I got pair of the Eastwood man these are the most comfortable boot I've had
I have! The Cuero Eastwood were my second review. I can't post a link here unfortunately. But I am in talks with them to do a second video. Fingers crossed. Thanks for watching!
You poked my eye out!!!
Shoulda reviewed Cody James with leather soles made in Mexico.
I may in the future. Thanks for watching

Superb review
Thank you so much!
I got these in a 8.5. I usually wear 9 in shoes. Do u think theyll be way too small

But yes that is the color way. Idk if you used the link i put in the description, but that is the exact boot
Yup those are it thanks. Ur other video has me wishing maybe i went with the dan posts. Is their a big difference in quality?
Interesting mine are made in Mexico...🤔
Those are nice looking flippers 😂
Lol

Thsnks for watching my friend
Made in Mexico.
I smoked too much Oklahoma weed.
Made in China! How can you gave it a lone star approval 👎🏻. At least the boot should be made in Leon, Mexico or USA.
As you watch this video and type this comment from your chinese made cell phone 😂😂🤣
@@lucaswhite3850 They do the best phones, but the American cowboy boots NO way! Ufff
They are made in Mexico.
