The advent of cowboy boots over 150 years ago helped cowboys get the cattle to market in a safer and more secure manner. In the years since that early time, they have remained a staple of western work and play, but have also evolved to the look they have today, with many cool colors and patterns for boots available to anybody who wants to wear them. Boots are as much a part of a singer’s outfit as they are a cowboy’s outfit, whether male or female. Even children are sporting the boots, and many of them are active on the kids’ rodeo circuit. The following is a small roundup of the varying cowboy boots available in various styles and sizes.

Purple Cowboy Boots for Girls

Durango has been making rugged, yet stylish boots since 1966, and some of their most stylish are made for little girls. Just one look at their Li’l Flirt boot, with its brown vamp, and purple shaft will melt anybody’s heart. These boots are made of the toughest leather, and with the softest of touches. Parents love them, and the kids cannot get enough of them. John Deere has their own offering with the all-purple Wellington Western Boot. It is leather with a riding-friendly rubber sole, and has the rubber John Deere logo patch on the front. Both of these boots cost around 49.00 dollars.

Zebra Print Cowboy Boots

Ariat has Quick Draw zebra print boots for around 200.00 dollars, and it is made in the style of the Sudan zebra.

Stingray, on the other hand,  switches it up and has the zebra print on the vamp of their boot. The shaft is solid black goat leather with a black and white cross inlay on it.

These boots are not only dazzling, but they were built to take a beating, which is good, because your little girl is going to want to wear these all day long, every day.

Red Women’s Cowboy Boots

Tony Lama was the son of Italian immigrants and you are going to think his Vaquero boots were made in Italy when you see them. These beauties are all chocolate with red rose inlay from foot to shaft, and can be worn for both riding, and a night on the town, and they are not a bad price, at only 250.00 dollars. Also by Tony Lama is the Ladies’ Walnut Brown and Red Saddle Vamp. The vamp is walnut, and the eleven inch shaft is red leather. Tony Lama’s reputation was built on comfort, and the orthotic insole of this boot offers unbelievable comfort.

This pair of boots will cost about 290.00 dollars.

Snakeskin Cowboy Boots

Snakeskin boots have had so much written about them in songs, and have been portrayed so many times in movies and videos, that you would think there is nothing left to say about them. Well, the Black Jack boot company would have something to say about that. Black Jack is the king of exotic boot styles, and they have eleven snakeskin styles at the moment. Black Jack hand craft these boots and will make them to order, in whatever specifications you prefer.

These snakeskin boots are popular because they form to your feet better than any other boot out there. The skin is so supple that these boots practically coil themselves lovingly around your feet. They are lightweight and hardly require any breaking in at all. Black Jack offers an exquisite Colored Python with Collar boot for 799.00 dollars, but the durability of these finely crafted, high quality boots make it a good investment. If you are thinking that you may not be able to afford  snakeskin boots, you may want to reconsider, because Black Jack has their Cow Town Diamond Back Rattlesnake boots available for only around 329.00 dollars. These stunning boots are made from the hides of Eastern Diamondback rattlers and have a silver and black foot so striking you will almost hear it rattle. The upper part of the boot is black with shield inlay and cording.

Sheppler’s offers their Old West corona leather boots for only about 59.00 dollars. They are hot pink with a 12 inch fancy stitched leather shaft.

Any discussion of cool colors and patterns for cowboy boots could take hours, because the possibilities and resources that boot makers have cannot be exhausted. The remarkable point is that no matter how outrageous the style and color, there is one steady constant that remains, and that is the quality. You have to tip your Stetson to the people who always keep the cowboy and the ride in mind, no matter how far out there the style gets.
