    Everyone is an expert.... Lol... The first modern cowboy boots were made in Olathe Kansas in the late 1800s. They were a mix of British "Wellington" calvary boots and Spanish calvary boots. The American design incorporated 1) a 4 panel design with vamps/ front tops, counters/ back tops sewn across the ankles and then sewn top to bottom at the two side seams. They also featured a "Cuban" slanted heel and were made with a R and L foot for each pair. It is an all American boot with innovations that were distinctly different from previous boot designs. The finest boots are made following the traditional 235 step process of a single maker BY HAND, not in a factory, and certainly not in Mexico (sorry compadres) . There are about 185 custom bootmakers left in the USA. These are what REAL cowboys wear......

    • @pianofry1138

      I only eat stuff that was surrounded by leather. In the case of jerkey, I’m okay with second hand.

      Like the rest of the world does not use electricity, medicine, cars, airplanes, manufacturing processes, etc. Americans do not get offended when other countries use American creations. Americans encourage it. So, what are you offended about?
