Cowboy Boots

[BobHufford]

We visited a thrift store yesterday. I heard they had some boots. A few nice ones, not in my size, but I did find one pair that fit, so I brought them home. They are Justins, I have no idea what year.

Good get D-Dog! Contact Justin through their website. They were helpful in dating a pair for me.

Damn, Ddog I'm not much of a snake fan but those look good and nearly new. Good color. I have a hard time with putting a date on Justins. The last pair I owned was a pair of mule hides in the 70's-80's. Was away from home for awhile and my mom threw them away. Loved those boots. Still hurts.

Just going by the profile, the nice heel and the elaborate stitching, I would think no later than the 80's. Maybe others will weigh in.

Thank you BB, the last Justin boots I had was in the 70s. They were nice chocolate with lizard tips. I am always glad to get your opinion on boots, since you have so many exceptional examples.

Good mention, Bob. I keep forgetting that. TL will do the same. Pretty quick email response.

Well after a little mix up with the shipping address on FedEx part, these arrived yesterday. Wife absolutely loved them.

Nowadays I'm not a fan of snake or 4-piece vamps but I do like the color, & they look to be in great shape. Can't see much of the ink stamps but I'm betting late 1980's.

Looking around I spotted these & the stitch pattern looks familiar but I can't place them.

The color was the only reason I bought them, I already have two other pair of snake, and didn't need another. I don't remember the make on the ones you circled.

I was wearing a pair of TL anacondas when I had my bad motorcycle wreck some yrs ago. Being superstitious, I haven't worn any snake since.

Great looking! Never owned any Caboots. What do you think?

Thanks Bob, they are 19" from the floor to the top.

They seem to be pretty well made. I find no lemonwood pegs, just two rows of nails. The leather is nice and they are comfortable. I like the heels. Can probably give a better review after wearing them for a while. I've never owned tops this high.

Yes, I picked up a pair of what were advertised as vintage Justin alligator belly but was suspicious. Sent an email to Justin customer service and they got back right away confirming they were a no longer made model of alligator.

I'm sure the pegs are brass. Not uncommon. A lot of bootmakers prefer them. I like a high top. Good snake boots out there in the desert.

18" tops are my all time favorites.

Did you decide on those Paul Bond high tops?
