Justin Cowboy Boots - Fashion Or Protection?
When it comes to work boots, nothing comes close to the quality of Justin Work Boots. My brother works construction and he has had the same pair of Justin Boots for 8 years now. And he wears them every day, whether it’s 100 degrees or zero degrees out, these boots were made for working.
Being intrigued by the longevity of those boots, I did some research and found that the company actually started as a family owned business in Texas. Today, they still have the same pride in their work as when they started, but have a much larger operation allowing them to produce a lot more boots.
Justin Boots not only make great work boots but they also make a huge line of cowboy boots as well. The Justin cowboy boot line is probably what the company is most noted for. They produce a specific boot for horse riding and rodeos known as roper boots. Roper boots are essentially cowboy boots but strengthened in certain areas and missing most of the flair of regular cowboy boots.
They are usually plain, one color, with one specific purpose, to get scuffed up and get dirty. There’s nothing about a rodeo that’s clean and roper boots can handle any punishment a rodeo cowboy can dish out. I always wondered why the cowboys in the rodeos don’t just wear work boots. Well, rodeo cowboys have to have a sense of fashion too. You never see them wear just t-shirts either.
Of course, you don’t have to be a cowboy to own a pair of rustic cowboy boots, but if it’s the look you’re going for, you’re not alone.
