I started wearing round toe cowboy boots when I was in high school, stopped wearing them for awhile, then got back into wearing them, but started wearing J toe boots. Since then, I went back to wearing round toe and medium round toe boots again and then started wearing snip toe boots. Like many other guys, I wasn't a fan of square toe boots, but that changed after I got my first pair. Now I love and own many different toe style boots, a couple different heel styles, as well as many different skins. I absolutely love wearing cowboy boots. If more guys would try wearing them, they may understand why those of us who already wear them, actually wear and love them.

Great breakdown of the square toe boot. I quit wearing boots altogether because my feet hurt too much in the point of the toe bunched together. Sketchers brand shoes started a trend of squared end styling to their shoes a few years back and I found them extremely comfortable. I think I might have to give square toed boots a try.

In Oklahoma square toes are common when your messing around in daily life and working, traditional round toe is usually reserved for classy events such as BBQ, Dances, Graduations, etc.

The first cowboy boots had a tapered square to as jetmobile stated. The also had a tall (around 2”) heel with a spur shelf. The shaft was also tall, somewhere around 18”. And the top of the shaft was even all the way around. No cuts as modern day boots have. Every part of the cowboy boot was designed for a specific purpose.

I read in a book on cowboy boots that different toe and heel styles all come and go, as well, and come around again.

My first pair of cowboy boots were Acme brand, with a narrow square toe, somewhere between square and snip toe. And this has just stuck in my mind as proper cowboy boots ever since. I really long for the return of Dan Post El Paso boots, but just a dream more than likely. I have one pair that I cherish. Dan Post told me about two years ago that it has been eleven years since the Dan Post El Paso brand.

The truth is that those "square toe" boots that look like skin diving flippers with the corners rounded off are great for getting to shore if your horse throws you into the river and that's all they're good for. If your toes are really spread out that much, you need to have a couple of them on each foot amputated.

Square toe is used ALLOT! More than you actually think. They are so versatile but their main use is for something more casual.

I want to learn how to do that "check that out up here" thing. Also, I like boots on my bike because it helps me stay planted on the pedals. Also... lots of girls like the way guys look in most boots rather than shoes.

I have two pair of the Dan Post Cowboy Certified square toe and I absolutely love them. I had stopped wearing “cowboy” boots for years because they killed my feet. I bought a pair of the DP Caimans and they are so good I picked up a pair or full quill ostrich.

My first pair of boots back on 24th September 1994 was a pair of Tony Mora nubuck square-toed boots. Living in Ireland, there wasn't many options for boots back then, but my next couple of pairs were Sendra square-toed boots. Then I moved on to Loblan 295 wide-square toes, and the narrower square toe. From there I moved on to Loblan 548 style with a kinda chisel/snip toe - but relatively narrow square to. I've had a pair of Tony Lama 3R square toes (which I was thoroughly unimpressed with), and a pair of Boulet Buckaroo 17" shaft, with a wide - but flat - square toe. I really liked the Boulets but they were an E sizing, so I had some loose play to contend with. I want to get a pair of Boulet Stovepipe "Shooter" boots, but I'm kinda tempted to go with the round toe this time, instead of the square toe...

Pointed toe boots don't squeeze toes by default it's all in the sizing. I've found that much of this myth has come from stores and companies not educating their customers so many people get the wrong size to begin with. Happened to me too. I had my toes cramped for years and thought that was just the way it was but once I got the right size and width I realized toe shape does not correlate to comfort when you have the correct size. That being said, square toes are the most forgiving if you have the wrong size which is another reason why companies push them so much

All I buy is square toe. I've got a small but decent collection of cowboy boots and I've always preferred the squared toe. I also prefer natural colors when it comes to animal skin boots.

When I was a kid till about high school, I wore round toe style boots. I stopped wearing boots for a while because they just weren't comfortable. If my toes were comfy, then the boot was too loose and rubbing blisters into my ankles. An old roommate of mine let me borrow a pair of their boots once and they were square toed. I swear that was the most comfortable my foot had ever felt in a boot so i ginally bought some. Now I wear my square toed boots every day. I don't care what they look like. I have sensitive feet, I care how comfortable my foot is.

i use to wear everyday my square toe boots but they are the biker ones with harness on both sides... and I LOVE THEM

I’ve always been partial to square and round toe boots because they were common in the old west, the pointed toe boot style didn’t make it to the US until the 1940s, or at least didn’t really become popular till then

Thanks Moses! I can't wait to have more toe styles too. They are all worth owning. No doubt!

I totally understand about the comfort factor of the square toe. In my younger days, for fashion sake, I wore the pointy toe boots. I still have them! But, for comfort sake, I now wear the round toe. In fact, my foot is small enough to wear a child's size 6 and they always have a good arch! Now that I'm much older though, I even put an extra gel cushion inside. Doing retail for 36 years kinda "killed my feet"! Retired now, so I can relax! Enjoyed the video. People should just wear what they, but if you want comfort, go square or round!

I have recently found your videos and I am hooked! Great breakdown on the square toe. I can say I prefer the square toe due to the fact that I have a very wide foot and anything less than custom hand made boots my foot feels cramped after a long day. Take a look at cavalry boots from the 1800s most were square toe or the snip toed boots. I can't say I have a preference for looks, that just depends on the boot. Great video, keep up the great work!

I was told by a working cowboy (i.e., he runs a ranch here in Texas and rides a horse) that he and others prefer square toes because it's easier to mount and dismount. That was interesting and something I'd never considered. I prefer round toes myself. The Sunday-go-to-meetin' comment earlier made me chuckle. I enjoyed your video about the Cuero vs. Tecovas issue.

That figures.

I used to drive cattle to the market about 25 years ago. Most of the drivers wore boots out of the truck. And sandals inside the truck. The cattle were in 60-80 lb boxes. So many drivers wore safety toe boots. Back in the 70's I rode a motorcycle for commuting. I preferred the sqaure toe harness boot for toe room and a taller boot over the calve. I would have bought the riding boots that went over the knee. But I didn't make that much back then. And when I lived on my sister and brother in laws horse ranch. I wore rubber boots, to deal with all the muck! Today, I have the budget to own all types of boots for work or at home. I have both square and round composite safety toe and regular soft toe. I usually were Keen sandals when not on the job or working on my property. But always carry some kind of boot when driving one of my trucks. Because the side off the road can be very hazardous.

revisiting this after I just bought 2 square toe boots the Boulet 6266 and Double H bison boots. My thing with square toe boots is the extra toe room is very welcomed and just allows for more options for sure and reduces the risk of rubbing or crushing my toes. However, I tend to stay away from the wide wide square toes and while companies will market their square toes as wide there are def differences. I like to think of it as a spade square toe vs a slight taper square toe which is what i see the Boulet and the double H as. Also, the way the welts are done IMO affects the look. Some double stitch welts make the boot look even bigger than it is. I usually shoot for boots with a single stitch welt but if the toe looks good as in not super wide I will get it with the square toe double stitch like the double H's.

Wearing boots 50 years now, I still prefer round toe.

I believe it's all about personal preference. Whatever you like and whatever fell comfortable wareing.

I'm in the saddle at least 5 day's a week, have been for many years. I wear Ariat square toe boots, size 11EE. When your sitting in the saddle 3-4 hours a day, the blood in your legs has a tendency to settle in your feet. It's nice having the wider toe cavity to allow your toes to spread out more. As for the ease of getting your feet in the stirrups easier, if you ride enough that's not even an issue. Wear what's comfortable. Believe me, your horse will notice if your in a bad mood if your feet hurt, and will usually act accordingly.

Here in Brasil there are practically only square toe boots,some ropers and some pointed toes but most of them are square toe's. Brands like Dan Post, Luchese, Abilene and others are like SUPER RARE (I've seen one or two used in my whole life here), they only sell Ariat and Justin for EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE prices (a basic model cost above 1000 reais). In the beginning I hated square toe boots, but after some time I got used to it and now I love them,but pointed toe's and round toe's still own the first place in my heart hahaha

Jeremiah, I'm CERTAIN square toed boots (I call them Frankenstein boots) are more comfortable. I just can't go there, and doubt I'll be able to. I'm too much into what looks good to me and "tradition". That's why I like buckaroo style boots with a medium round toe, tall tops, and 2"+ heels (Olathe, and your Hondo 2012, 2670, 8504 and 8506 for example). I'm not a working cowboy, but have always liked traditional cowboy stuff. You're right - the whole reason more pointed toes were developed was so the rider could more easily shoot his foot into the oxbow stirrup. Half (medium) round toes were easier to walk in than super pointed ones. The big heels kept your foot from slipping through the stirrup and you getting drug to death. Those boots were made for RIDING, and most old cowboys hated walking in them. Kind of like women in high heeled shoes. Everyone has switched to low heels and square toes. If comfort is the main concern, why didn't we just stick with ropers? Kind of the same thing isn't it? Anyway, that's just me - to each his own....🙂

I live in West Texas and have square toe boots which I love and I get constant compliments on them (though I prefer round toe). However, what I don't like is that square toe boots (at least here) are the only thing I can buy in store. My city has 7 western clothing stores and in all of them 95% of the boots on the shelf are square toe. Maybe you're right and Texas just has an affinity for square toe boots, but it is pretty annoying.

After many years not wearing cowboy boots, I recently got a pair of all leather boots with the square toe. I preferred the narrow square but could not find any in my price range. Add to that -- I've owned block-toe motorcycle boots before and liked the look. The cowboy square toe is similar in my view. So, I committed to a pair. Wearing them, I can say they look all right. Manly, definitely the cowboy look in every other respect. Mine have the lower heel which I guess is called a "roper heel" (?). I want to wear them extensively and felt that the taller heel would impede that. Long story short -- I expect to keep them. They are pretty cool and comfortable. Now I have to slather all that leather with shoe conditioner -- because these boots have some heavy-duty breaking in yet to happen!

I just bought my first pair of boots and when I was at the store I couldn't decide on a tapered square or round. I had in my head square toe but actually seeing them on me they looked more like work boots and less feminine to me. I decided on the round toe. I have very small and skinny feet so I don't think I'll have a problem with toe space. It's only been a day and I'm still trying to break them in but so far so good. I still would eventually want to get a tapered square toe and rock the look. :)

For an everyday work boot, I switched to a square toe a couple years ago from a round toe. I won’t go back. My dress boots will stay round toe, however.

A lot of the guys I work with wear em (but we're pipefitters, not cowboys & girls)

Finding the right toe shape is my biggest problem. Cannot find a pair I like because the toe is too round or too pointed. I much prefer a classic round toe such as a roper toe. Unfortunately most new boots such as ariats are a extra wide round toe. Cannot stand the style which is tough because an Ariat roper/stockman heel works well with my much needed orthotics.

My main complaint on any cowboy boots is that many manufacture's no longer offer the narrow widths like B. No one carries them in the store anymore. Hondo and Ariat , and others have left me high and dry. They say just add an extra cushion sole. Well that sucks, and is not a true fit. Been wearing boots 60+ years.

I just got a pair of Justin's and they have a square toe. My job has a boot truck that comes around and we get a free pair once a year. Ive never worn pull on boots before or square toe. Can't wait to try them out tonight at work.

I love your enthusiasm for boots

My first pair of boots were ariat tombstones square toe, now square toe is all I have.

Sweet. It's a comfy toe style for sure!

We’re just not the real working, horse-riding cowboys anymore. The medium-round toe will always be a classic but it just ain’t relevant in working cattle anymore. Even the real Traditional hard core cowboys prefer square toes to the round toes.

I get it. Still I respect all toe shapes and reasons for wearing them. Like I said in the video, as long as folks are wearing cowboy boots, I'm happy

Cody have you considered getting them is wide or double or triple wide?

I have needed safety boots for 13 years. I switched to Justin stampede square toes 5 years ago and will never wear anything other. The comfort is unmatched.

I love square toe boots because of comfort, the look, and because I can buy true to my size and not have to worry about buying a size up.

I belive the square toed boots have existed for 100 years. Alot of ariat square toes are for work.

Comander Mcgarrett the spanyards wire them while exploring America. They're the most common boot throughout history. More comfortable when they didn't use left and right boots. They also were easier to build and repair.

In South Carolina it don’t matter if you white or Mexican we all love the square toe.

There’s Mexicans in southern Carolina?

I’d never owned a pair of square toes until last week. I know that’s the popular style so I decided to give them a try. I’m a little concerned about the size. Everything feels right but the heel slip seems more dramatic than I remembered from new boots. I have worn the same pair nearly every day for the last 5 years and they’re really broken in, so I’m hoping it’s just something I’m not used to, and not that they’re too big. I guess time will tell.

I wear Ariat Sierra work boots and they are great for everything. Work, going out, that’s what I love about pull ons. You can do anything in them for the most part and they look really good. I tried the Ariat patriots and definitely the most comfortable boot ive ever worn in my life brand new but I’m not used to the heel on cowboy boots so regular western slip ons are my fav.

As long as I have plenty of heel slip I am good. In my opinion, most people buy cowboy boots that are too small for them.

I’m a big fan of the Yellowstone tv series. I’ve been on the fence about ordering Justin’s Dutton boot because of its square toe (always been more a round toe type of fella) but I think you’ve convinced me. Oh, and you’ve earned yourself a sub!

@@mr.raymond2389 wasn’t able to. Apparently Justin only used those to sell during the 2018 season. Last year Jeremiah did a video discussing different boots worn by modern western heroes like Rick grimes, Walt longmire, marshal givens, and of course John Dutton. He determined JD actually wears the Justin Shawnee. However, I’m wondering now if they have a deal with tecovas

I’m from California I wear square toe for work I just bought my first pair of regular boots stayed with the square toe love them

I love the square toe boots and shoes. So much that it’s to the point I don’t round toe anymore. I still remember when I used to get made fun of because I would wear square toe in high school and that wasn’t too long ago. Few years later those same people now wear them.

I had the same feeling towards square toes as you did. Then I bought a cheap ($150) pair of Durango's with the brown leather square toes and American flag uppers, to wear to a "themed" party. Those things turned out to be COMFORTABLE. That was my come to Jesus moment with square toes. I still like my snip, J, X and other toe styles, but the square is now in the mix of my boot collection.

Hey I just got my first pair of boots and have watched a bunch of your videos. I bought some Dan Post Abrams or I think they may be called Cavvy’s too. They told me they come pre conditioned and don’t need anything for 4-6 months. Is this true or what should I do with them?
