    All of the stitching on the shaft also kept and added strength to the shaft to keep it from sagging prematurely

    The real purpose of the pointed toe is to stomp bugs in tight corners. That's why the are called CBKs (Corner Bug Killers).

      The pointed toe didn't come around until the 1920s or so I've read and was a movie invention. Around here we call them roach killers but they were to help get the foot in stirrups and help it come out if thrown. Or so I've read and seen on other channels.

    this is truly the coolest channel! It's obvious you put a lot of time into editing. and I still have a pair of cowboy boots I bought in NYC in 1987, with the pointed toe, fancy stitching, and I tucked my jeans INSIDE the boots. Living in New Jersey. That was my cowboy phase. I paaid $125 for the boots--30 years ago! There in my basement full of mold, but I can't part with them. They are like ancient artifacts to me. Thank you for this little history lesson👍

    Harness boots - _minus the metal rings and straps that were added around the mid 20th century_ - are probably about truest 19th century style boot still widely and inexpensively available today.

    Industrial conveyor belt material from a cement plant. Its half an inch thick and the thicker layer of rubber faces down.

    Ive also reheeled my boots with 3-/4 in oak.

    You forgot to mention that in the old west a lot of shoes and boots didn't come in rights or lefts, both boots were identical and didn't become a right or left shoe till you broke them in that way. If you wanted shoes or boots fitted to your feet, you went to a local shoemaker or cobbler for custom made boots.

    • @ArizonaGhostriders

      Because right and left have been made since the early 1800s (or some historians say earlier), there was no need to mention it.

    Most people in the 19th century and early 20th century wore their pants inside their boots, despite that being seen as improper for cowboy boots by some nowadays.

    Great video but I think the guy asking the question was referring to the brand Old West. Maybe I'm wrong but that's why I watched it haha

      Nope, he meant the boots made in the Old West (there was more than one request).

    Great video, I gave it a thumbs up 👍. But would you explain to viewers that when the cowboys got the boots wet in the creek, they got on their horses and rode them dry? Too many people believe the cowboys walked them dry and it will wreck your feet!!!! I am a boot black!
