I wear ropers from Tecova for casual days and a dressier Black pair for evening. The Viberg Service boot is probably the best fitting boots I have. I’ve been thinking about upgrading to Lucchese. Beautiful collection!

Nice collection! I definitely have a boot obsession too. Mainly White’s, Truman’s, Red Wings, and soon to have a pair of Nick’s.

Very nice! I have some Justin and Frye cowboy style boots that I wear often, but no Lucchese.

Several years ago, in Nashville, I bought Redneck Riviera American flag themed ankle boots from a local boot shop that is the exclusive vendor for that brand. I wear them all of the time and get a ton of compliments.

The nice thing about ankle boots is their versatility, as I can wear them in the summer. I save my full size cowboy boots for winter.

Boots are also practical to protect the feet. Pre-pandemic we had summer season tickets to the Hollywood Bowl; when the concerts let out, thousands of people (many of whom consumed alcohol or pot) walk out at the same time. It was nice to wear leather cowboy boots and not worry about being stepped on.

I've only been collecting watches for a few years & recently went down the boot/shoe collecting rabbit hole a couple of months ago & things escalated quickly as I acquired about 8 pairs of boots & shoes in short order.

I've enjoyed my Crockett & Jones Coniston boots the most, but started with a pair of Allen Edmonds Landon's, Thursday's black label Journeyman's, & some Loake coppergate boots.

For shoes, I picked up some Alden's, Crockett & Jones, & Carmina Oxfords as well on the classic Gucci Jordaan horsebit loafers. Even picked up a pair of AE dress sneakers.

I've been looking at Vibergs lately but need to slowdown.

Love the craftsmanship, however where I venture I would most probably be arrested wearing those which is a bit sad.

Very nice collection. I have owned cowboy boots in the past but currently don't have a pair. This might motivate me to do some looking. Thanks for sharing.

Got a couple pairs of Lucchese, Tecovas, Justin, Frye, and a pair of Vaccari. No black, can't do it. No black boots, shoes, belts, watch straps, baseball caps, or T-Shirts.
