Like many wardrobe staples of Americana, cowboy boots have an iconic style and are rooted in function. Pull them on, wear them hard, use them for years. They look equally at home on the ranch and in the city and they’re built to take a beating. From Lucchese and Tony Lama to Tecovas and Heritage Boot Co., cowboy boots span heritage makers and fresh competition. So stop obsessing over Chelsea boots and embrace a domestic classic: the pull-on Western boot.

The Pecos boot from Red Wing has been around since the 1930s and offers a toned-down version of the traditional cowboy boot by forgoing the decorative stitching and exaggerated heel.

And Goodyear-welted construction with leather shanks and midsoles along with a Vibram sole come together for a seriously solid boot.
Lucchese multi-generational boot tradition is revered the world over and its roper-style Tanner Boot is a standout. Featuring a premium goat leather upper that’s full of patina and character off the bat, the Tanner is a shorter cowboy boot that’s built in Texas using a resolable welted construction
