Luc's are certainly the Cadillac of boots. Unfortunately I've heard their quality has slipped in recent years. Hopefully not. I know you love 'em and maybe one day I'll have some. I would love to just try some one day.
Same here. Had boots as a kid, later teen and young adult and got a way when mine were ruined in a flooded basement. But began getting a few in recent years--14 pair I think now.... I have enough. Maybe. But I wear them more days than not.
Good song list mate. Is Brandy the song from Guardians of the Galaxy? Brandy (you’re a fine girl) ?
Canned Tamales? That’s just wrong.
I think so, haven't played it in years....great tune..
Wow. My mate was in Texas for work last week (San Antonio I think). The same guy that goes over about 4 times a year.
Anyway, I was prodding him
“Are you going to buy a Stetson?”
“Are you going to buy some Cowboy boots?”
He didn’t answer about the Stetson, but he reckons the boots are too expensive.
I’m not making fun, ok not too much, because I have 2 pairs of RM Williams boots and an Akubra hat myself. I’ve never worn boots that high up the leg though. I have enough trouble wrestling my RMW’s on - one piece of leather, no zip - just elastic on the sides and pull tabs sewn in for leverage.
RMW got rescued by Australia’s 2nd richest person… production stayed in Australia but the price has gone up enormously so nice he took them over.
I have never worn a pair of cowboy boots. Never will.

Wow. We played that when I was in high school.

I have three pair of boots — Tony Lama cowboy boots, Renn faire outfit boots, and a waterproof, insulated pair of hiking boots I bought for Alaska (not shown). I hadn’t had cowboy boots in years. A godson’s wedding was my excuse to buy a pair but I decided last minute and had to rush. The Tony Lamas were the only pair in the store that fit that I liked that would also go with my suit. A pair of Lucs or Nocs would be nice, but I’d need to find a deal like Dexter found.

I have some nice steel-toed Chippewa engineers boots I wear if casual dress on my VFR. (when not full leathers) Took a bit to break in but they are worth it: comfy, durable and protective.
Not my hand or boot

Forgetting my hiking boots, I have 2 pairs of RMW “Tambo” boots. Which are the same as the most popular “Craftsman” boots but in a wider fitting and with a wider, flat (squarer?) toe. Both being “Chelsea boots” in style.
They make Tambo in 2 colours only, Black and Chestnut. I have RMW belts in the matching colours. Fancy hey?
(I also have RMW strides, a couple pairs of socks and a few polo shirts - the socks and polos have been presents from kids / grandson).
My Akubra is a Cattleman, same model as Slim Dusty and many others, and I have an Akubra belt as well.
Shot I really should be singing Country and folk!
