Question Poll: are cowboy boots acceptable on blokes?

not for wearing with long black coats and all that goth bollix, you understand.

i've seen a few designer boot makers making them and have always liked them, so i've been wondering....

do you have/wear them? or are they a no no?

C'mon, it's obvious. They are acceptable if you are a cowboy.

If not then you'll just look stupid Glad to have helped!

Anything in crocodile skin with cuban heels, pointed toes and that piece of stainless steel round the front is a fashion risk not worth taking.

Something like an RM Williams dealer boot (not a cowboy boot as such) is very nice.

Even Goths don't wear cowboy boots - usually those sort of silly faux-biker boots with chrome plates everywhere which makes them look like some sort of malnourished golf-club.
For general day to day wear, I wouldn't bother. However if you have a blank-firing Colt Peacemaker and a Stetson, fill your boots (pardon the pun)

To reply to the thread title......YES.

They are very popular with Gay men, something to do with the YMCA culture.

I think.

Was there a cowboy, and was he wearing boots.

I remember an indian and a builder, but can think off the others.

I think that Gayvid Haggletopf t*at from Baywatch wears them, so you'll be 'cool' in Germany I guess!
