Let the Boots Do all the Work.
From the Pull Straps, the Shaft, the detailed Boot Stitching, to the various styles of heels for fashion or function, the Cowboy Boot is a work of art.
Originally a manifestation for horse-riding cowboys, these boots have the “wild, wild west” branded all over them. Cowboy Boots are sturdy and stand firm on their own. Knowing this, a simple t-shirt and jeans may do. If your personality screams tough but refined, go with a classic t-shirt and denim look.

You can find inspiration from the U.S. to even abroad Japanese manufacturers who diligently work at reinventing and rediscovering denim daily.
Bring them to the Dance.
One big part of western culture is cowboy bars and line dancing. You can grab any old pair of boots for this, add some polish and watch them turn back into life. These boots are made for durability and time. Quality is built into the tradition of the Western/Cowboy Boot. While holding up in the saddle, they sure put on a mean look when stopping around on the dance floor. This is when you can have fun with your tops and go all out—matching suedes and leathers with a sophisticated collared top works best when pulling together a stand outlook. Go with subtle fringes and quality leather detailing when matching tops or jackets. Have fun with your tops, but always match your belt with your boot.
