Wasn't sure exactly where to post this... Looking for a good pair of square toe cowboy boots, for a ranching (not so much hunting). Who makes a good pair? Thx!

Tony Lama Anderson Bean I'd like to try a pair of the American made Justin's Handmade
You wont catch me in a pair of Ariat or Twisted X boots.

I have a pair of Tony Lamas' I have had for about 6 yrs in Bull hide and narrow round toe (not pointed or round round type) . Only thing I had done is new half soles and heels put on . But they hold up to just rough use pretty well . Never tried any square toed but I could see where they might be comfortable if you have problems with ingrown toenails . However don't be kicking anything hard unless you get some with steel toe if they even make them . Either way I love mine and wear them very often and being plain Bull hide don't have to worry too much if I scar them . You can always buy some black dye and shoe polish to make them look new again . One I got are like the ones in this link but I have a smaller riding heel than the ones in this pictures . https://www.tonylama.com/footwear/men/styles/classic-boots/CT2036

Artiats here. If not those then Anderson Bean. Anything else just doesn't last for me or isn't comfortable.

Also, my ariats are rubber soled, which for wearing outdoors, I like better.

Thanks guys, was looking at a pair of Ariats & a pair of Boulets. Other than the obvious material construction, what's the difference in the rubber sole vs. the reg. sole?

Walter A good many of Bean Boots are "Hecho in Mexico" I have an old pair of USA made crepe sole that are most comfortable footwear that I own

I wear Olathe 2215's and 9050's. Not sure if they make sq. toed boots but I won't wear any other brand. Made in Texas.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

I have a picture in my head of chinese people working a in an assembly line of cowboy boots saying to each other "howdy yall" in a crazy accent.

I have Justin square toes. I have one with leather bottoms and one with heavy duty rubber bottoms. I wear the rubber bottoms only now . "square toe work boots" I prefer the no steel / composite toe for comfort

Surprised more people don't wear Olathe, they are a good boot.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

for price function and longevity, Ariat and DoubleH are the best IMO.
I have 2 pair of anderson beans and they slide across the dance floor pretty nice, but I'd have to re-sole them like burke to get any work done in them

You wont catch me in a pair of Ariat or Twisted X boots. Technically Justin's are "made in America" because the final assembly is done here but the uppers (and possibly everything else) are imported. Not saying there's anything wrong with that just stating a fact. It is quite common for companies to import all of their components and bill their products as made in America because they were assembled here.

Rod Patrick is a very wellbuiltboot. All leather, no pastboard or plastic. I have four pair and they all have a consistant fit. I have had my work pair re- soled 4 times and the top leather bull hide is still good. They are in the sand and mud quite often. I do clean and saddle soap them on occasion. I have had my dress pair re-soled twice. The other two are still on their original soles. I wear a 14 narrow, so there are few production boot makers still making a boot I can wear.

Walter Listen to this man! I've got a closet full of AB and wear them daily for work, play, and dress......most comfortable boots there are for my feet, and I've got them all to compare to(Justin, Luchesse, Ariat, Red Wing, etc etc)! Do yourself and your feet a favor and try a pair *NOT THE HORSEPOWER LINE* btw, get true Anderson Beans jrg
