I say yay, but I bought a pair of dark red clog cowboy boots last month so... 😁 I believe I have seen them popping up on Pinterest as a new trend, plus they go well with jeans I think 😊

DavetheCat2001 · 22/08/2018 19:03

I bought these lat year on a complete whim, and have worn them twice I think.

They need breaking in more as the leather is still quite stiff, but I was thinking I might eBay them..not sure though.

Yours sound amazing!

With a short denim skirt, white vest and cowboy on your arm then yes

As an alternative to ankle boots, no

Unless you’re called Jasmine or Rain

I have a pair of Ariat boots bought in the US - gorgeous!

dudsville · 22/08/2018 19:07

I love them!

Errrrrrr · 22/08/2018 19:07

How funny i've been looking at cowboy boots recently too! Definitely think they're due a revival. Ariat do some really lovely ones buy they're quite £££ and I'm not sure I'm ready to splurge!

DavetheCat2001 · 22/08/2018 19:10

I'm a bit put off because I used to wear a black pair with denim pencil skirts 10 years ago and I cringe at the photos!

I went to a rodeo last year and fuck me there was some absolute hotties!!

ShirleyPhallus · 22/08/2018 19:33

*were!

Errrrrrr · 22/08/2018 19:33

hammering I want some because I had a pair of vintage suede ones which i trotted round West London in with little skirts when I was a grad and loved them - all the nostalgia, just picture them looking awesome in your head and don't look at the photos!

Pappybear · 22/08/2018 19:35

They're quite 2001 (or 1860) but maybe that means they're back in.

Blarblarblar · 22/08/2018 19:35

Yes! Yes! Yes! With midi skirts dresses, jeans, fur coat. Sexy rockstar I say.

Processedpea · 22/08/2018 19:37

I have some sendra boots and they go with loads of things

OneOfEach2 · 22/08/2018 19:55

@DavetheCat2001 I hold you fully responsible for me just impulse buying some cowboy boots! I had some about 12 years ago that I got from a vintage shop in Camden and I wore them to death. They're classic!

Blarblarblar · 22/08/2018 19:58

Top shop had a pair of red ones this summer and I talked myself out of buying them (they where not classy but fuuun).
I’m now looking up Sendra ones

DavetheCat2001 · 22/08/2018 20:04

haha @OneOfEach2!

You're in good company! Grin

Cowboy boots never go out of style! I’ve been wearing them all year round for the past 2 decades! Grin

whipstitchandwhiskey · 22/08/2018 20:19

No cowboy to accessorise them with but DH recently bought a pair and good god he looks hot in them!

mandarina24 · 22/08/2018 20:20

From my (practical, rather than fashion) experience, yay if you have narrow-ish feet, nay if you're like me and have normal to wide feet Sad

I bought a leather pair from oasis TWO years ago, and only realised how uncomfortable they were on my feet when I took them outside (so no way to return them anymore). My toes were in agony. I am still thinking of selling them on ebay, but I have no box to put them in anymore

goose1964 · 22/08/2018 20:24

I had a pair years ago, spent a lot of time on my arse as they were awful going downhill.

Destinysdaughter · 22/08/2018 20:24

I have a pair of black cowboy boots I bought in America in 1989! I haven’t worn them much as they were too narrow and I could only get them off by myself so my then boyfriend had to pull them off for me! I’m such a bloody hoarder but I should probably try to sell them on EBay since they’re apparently in again! Smile🐎

KateMcD451 · 22/08/2018 20:27

Definite yay!

I have bought myself a pair of deep red ankle ones for Autumn and I can't wait to wear them Smile

KathyBeale · 22/08/2018 20:31

I LOVE cowboy boots! I have a pair I bought in New Look about 15 years ago that I have reheeled and resoled so many times I must have spent WAY more on that than on the original boots.

I’ve not worn them for a couple of years but I am thinking about resurrecting them this winter to wear with my new leopard print teadress.
