    It’s great that there are so many different heights to choose from. Generally I wear the 11-13” boots, but I would like to try some taller boots sometime.

    The once standard 13" height is good for me. I see some brands now cutting costs and reducing height to 12". 10" for Ropers is standard. Any height lower than 8" shouldn't qualify as a boot! Like taller vintage boots from Tony Lama & Olathe at 14" and Buckaroo boots at 16". They feel awesome.

  • @fredericrmerchant1355

    I only buy 18” (from top of heel) buckaroos wore with jeans tucked in. Most have been custom made but a few Olathes (Kansas made) are still in the closet. Knee highs are best for riding, (think English boots) and look so good too.

    Not a cowboy, but have always loved tall top boots of at least 15" but prefer boots with 18" or taller tops. Have a few pair exotic boots with 12" tops found at thrift shops or garage sales but don't wear them very often.

  • @patrickpalomo323

    Love that you remain open to appreciate every individual may have their own preference. Very cool no judgements- thank JC!
    I do like tall tops though I am not a working cowboy. They feel good (used to be a horseman) vet clients respond well to them, and I just think they look cool and tend to have a nice flashy look! Love your videos and if ever the chance would love to share a beer!

  • @jimcollins9999

  • @andrewmartinelli6092

    I like the Roper style boots. I’ve been wearing the Ariat Sierra model for years. The ATS insole isn’t my favorite for hard surfaces but I work for a plant nursery and they are great for the soft flower beds, mulch, sod, turf, etc because of the tall heel. It’s an eleven inch shaft and they just work perfect for me. Thanks for all the content and cheers

  • @soulfirez4270
    @soulfirez4270 2 года назад +4

    I literally started to watch your videos to expand my tastes a little because the majority of my boots are 13 inch shaft, 1.5 inch under slung heal and R toe ( have a snip toe and a J toe now thanks to liking what you have shown me ) still havent changed my heel taste yet but I have gone more adventurous with colour after seeing some of your videos .( My boot maker did ask on the sudden increase in business, I said he should thank you for that . I still only have one pair of big company made boots and they are Chinese made Ariats as my shit kickers, the rubber sole and rough out leather work well for me plodding along the paddocks , even if they are no longer anything like the colour they started at ( the red clay here stains well damn near everything.)

    " Hello Jeremiah, this video is a good idea...I myself have cowboy boots whose height is often different but it comes from the height of the heels. I ordered a pair of cowboy boots real leather made in Mexico, to put on, which reach the ankle.On the internet, we find our pleasures of choice of cowboy boots!In general, the sellers are serious and they even make price reductions or recently I even had a gift offer for a pair brand Justin. Good video the expert in cowboy boots, always nice to follow you on RUclips. Long live the passion of cowboy boots! "

  • @irieone100
    @irieone100 2 года назад +3

    I am with you on the 12-13in height. Thats where all my boots are. I can't pull off slim or skinny fits for shorter boots and my calfs are far too thick for anything higher.

  • @keithroller3131

    • @spotsill
      @spotsill 2 года назад

      True your height and calf length definitely is important in your boot selection. Sitting down in a pair that is too tall could definitely dig into the back of your knees and upper legs .

  • @independantegirl
    @independantegirl 2 года назад +1

    I recently purchased my first pair of cowboy boots, and they're just over the knee. I really had to condition them before wearing since they have to bend in the knee, but they're perfect!

    @jorge960621 2 года назад

  • @wolffangx-rp7xo
    @wolffangx-rp7xo 2 года назад

    Tent to like 12-13" bit hace problems with some just because I have wide calves. Also best way to really tell the difference between a stockman and a roper boots is stockman boots tent to have more design on the shaft and have the toe bug, while ropers (most of the time) are pretty plain on thr shaft and don't hace a toe bug. Also stockman heels are just a little bit taller because they're more oriented towards being able to work in the saddle and off

  • @wulfhart945

  • @ihavekalashnikovyoudomath9275
    @ihavekalashnikovyoudomath9275 Год назад +1

    I think the reason the bucket effect happens in ropers, and not cowboy boots, is because of the calves. I think at least. Cowboy boots come all the way up to one's calves, the shaft hugging tight. That means the jeans can slide down and past the opening since there's not enough space to bucket. The opening of the shaft and the calf are that close to each other.
    Meanwhile with ropers, the opening is under the calf, meaning there is more space between the opening rim and the leg. That leads to jeans having an easier time making the bucket.

    • @ryanhall2269
      @ryanhall2269 7 месяцев назад

      Yes exactly just commented something similar. My ankle is so long that even 12-13 inch shafts are hitting just below my calf so there isn’t that smooth transition.

  • @VineV-Dutch
    @VineV-Dutch Год назад +1

    I'm 6ft6, wearing 24" no mistaking for the Mrs to know the man is in the house or not, haha. Needed them after company/work accident, despite the fact I'm now an stapler manager instead of a blue color worker. 24" is stretching it in the city jungle. Especially finding cowboy cut jeans, and I mean REAL cowboy cut. That are wider from the knee down, instead of halfway the calf.

    I typically wear a 12 or 13 inch tall boot so my jeans go over the tops nice, any taller is impractical for me. But i also usually wear boots with a cowboy heel and those usually have a slightly taller top than any roper or stockman style.

    I only buy boots at least 11" shaft. If it's shorter than that, my pants get all caught up in the brush, etc. when I go in "4x4" mode. Plus I'm in water a lot, so a taller boot is better down at the creek.

  • @ryanhall2269
    @ryanhall2269 7 месяцев назад

    The bucket effect is caused by a difference in leg width and boot shaft width. I am very tall and even 12 inch boot shafts will not end around my calf. Without the smooth transition from calf to boot you can still get the bucket effect on taller shafts.
