‹ Toe

Pinto Ranch offers a variety of toe shapes and heel styles so every customer can find a boot well-suited for his or her particular lifestyle and personality.  See our full gallery below.

COMMON TOE TYPES

Round

A traditional rounded western toe, it is timeless and elegant.

Snip

Snip toes are pointed toes with the very tip squared off.

Square

A modern take on the classic western style, this square toe is one of our most popular.

Pointed

Originally designed to easily slide into stirrups, pointed toe boots are now often seen as a more formal option.

‹Size

Cowboy boots won’t do you any good if they don’t fit properly! To get the right sized boots, start with your current shoe size. Most handmade boots will fit just like a dress shoe, but each boot maker has their own unique fit. We put together this handy list for you to keep in mind how each brand does things differently.

Cowboy Boot Fit Guide by Brand

Lucchese: Lucchese are made with a proprietary "twisted cone last" that gives their boots their distinctive fit. These boots tend to run true to size.

Old Gringo / Double D Ranch by Old Gringo: Old Gringo sizing is very consistent and true to size.

Stallion: We recommend going up a 1/2 size in Stallion due to their more European fit.

Rios of Mercedes: We also recommend going up a 1/2 size in Rios.

Pinto Ranch by Black Jack: Our boots fit similar in fit to Lucchese and are true to size.

These are our recommendations based on years of boot-fitting experience; however, each foot is different. If you fall between two sizes, order a 1/2 size larger. You can always wear thicker boot socks or get cushioned insoles for a better fit!

‹ Width

Typically, most people wear the same width as their normal shoe size. A general rule of thumb is the further you get from the letter A, the wider the boot is.

MEN’S BOOTS

Men’s Cowboy Boots are typically sized in B, D and EE widths.

B = Narrow
D = Medium/Average
EE = Wide

Not so fun fact: Our feet get wider with age and weight. This can change the size/length as well as the width measurement of your foot. This also means the cowboy boots you bought 10 years ago might not be the size you need today. Feel free to call us and talk to our boot experts if you have any questions about buying boots!

1 Did your foot audibly pop into the boot?

2 Is the ball of your foot in the widest part of the boot?

3 Is the point of your toe in the middle of the toe box or about 1 inch from the end?

4 Do your toes have wiggle room?

5 Does the boot fit like a firm handshake across your instep?

6 Is there a 1/4 inch slip in the heel?

1 High Foot Arch?

We suggest a boot by Stallion Boots as they tend to have a looser instep and the Stallion Zorro Boots feature a zipper for easy entry.

2 Two Different Sized Feet?

60% of people have one foot bigger than the other. If this is you, we suggest matching the size of your larger foot. Using a cushioned insole or thicker socks will make up the difference for the smaller foot.

3 Flat Feet?

For our flat-footed friends, Roper boots will be the most comfortable. Ropers are made to fit more like a shoe with a low walking heel and round toe.

4 Athletic Calves?

All calves are not created equal. Lucky for you, we have many western boot shapes and sizes. A Roper style, Stallion Zorro or any boot shorter than the traditional 12” shaft height should do just fine. We can also put the boots on boot stretchers to stretch the shaft, but only by about 1” wider. Any more stretching may damage the integrity of the boot.
