Cowboy boots, check.
High heel, check.
Attention getter, check.
Here you go, Dick!

Stetson, I think we're talking about very different types of boots. These are the Dan Posts I'm thinking of buying:



Not many makers have heels like that. Tony Lama shows a #5 heel, but I have yet to see a pair of boots with that heel on them.

I saw some "distressed" brown suede boots today. They were Justin or Ariat, I'm pretty sure. The heel was fairly low, but I'm sure a cobbler could build the heels higher.

I was just asking about the heel.  My tony Lamas are my slip on buckaroo boots with heels like that.  (Yes Tallpine, I have the clothes to go with them, from http://www.cows.com/

I have a pair like this along with a pair close to that black pair you posted Monkey.  Also somewhere, I think, I still have a pair of snake skin boots I had custom made when in Korea back in 91.

And neither do the rest of us.  [barf]

If I could roll back the years, back when I was young and limber,
loose as ashes in the wind, I had no irons in the fire.
I could ride them wild young broncos, the adrenalin came quickly,
and Juanita down at Mona's was my only heart's desire.

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

Actually, I did try using Nair on my monkeyleg when I was a teen. It didn't work well, as it's made for very fine and sparse hair, not a thick beard, which is what I had covering my leg. It really smelled bad, too.

Justin lace up work boots are my go to boot for riding and general heavy outdoor work . I've worn out several pairs and they are some of the most comfortable boot out of the box I've ever worn. And made in the USA.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams
