Boot advice


Recommended Posts

You need to keep the boots off the ground, in a hanging position. I was myself looking for a source to hang my boots. I may rig a shoetree/hanger combo or clean them and store the boots laying on the sides.

Our crewe just uses some black leather thong to tie um up... right below the knee so they won't slide down the calf. The cuff hides the tie. A simple and effective fix.

...gee when I was a kid in Grade school, my knee socks use to fall down all the time. I finally used big rubber bands to hold them up...

That's it! Use really BIG rubberbands!

Boots from Champion Attitude in Texas wont fall down . The standard 18" shafts are made from 6oz leather.

You need boot garters. They are small belts or ties that go under the flap just below your knee. I was having the same problem and had an old pair of “80’s” boots that had belts wrapped around the ankle, not doing anything just for show, and have metal tabs on the ends. I punched a few new holes and let the ends hang out from under the buckets for decoration; it looks good and works great.

Check Ren boot sites or leather sites on the web. I know I’ve seen them out there I just can’t remember where.
