People wear cowboy shoes, also known as cowboy boots, for several reasons. They provide protection and support for horseback riding and working on ranches. Additionally, they have become a fashion statement, symbolizing a Western lifestyle, and are often worn for their durability, style, and cultural significance.

∙ 12y agoIt's a bit of a fashion statement, especially for those girls who don't ride horses and live in the city. For real cowgirls though, it's a necessity because they need a boot that both slips into the stirrup easily (and comes out just as easily if they fall off) and keeps a good grip on the base of the stirrup when they are running the horse through barrels or just working with cattle on the ranch.
