User Reviews
I ride, so I mainly use my Durangos for lots of dirty situations, the barn--and it's horse stalls, the ranch, driving the truck, etc. They do take a beating. My husband has bad feet. I bought him these Durango boots in wide width because he has been complaining a lot about shoe fit lately. Too tight. He also has neuropathy in his feet. He wore average width all his life but I thought I would try wide for him. He has other cowboy boots but stopped wearing them. The other boots were leather soled. These Durangos feel great on his feet. The soles of these cowboy boots are fantastic. Instead of the regular leather bottom and slanted traditional cowboy heel, Durango made a cowboy boot for people who actually work in them and wear them all day. These have rubber treaded soles and a rubber cushioned heel. Durango has quite a few boots that employ this rubber tread bottom and cushioned heel. When I was younger I could wear stiletto heels all day, but not anymore. I might put on high heels for a dinner in town. That's about all I can do.The leather bottom and leather heeled cowboy boot is still popular, but the only time I might use them is when I ride in a show or a parade. If you are a working guy or gal and like cowboy boots don't miss out on the comfort of these boots. Husband was surprised he had "graduated" to a wide size.I have a couple "clean" Durango boots too that I don't wear in the barn. I wear those when I dress up in Western clothing and go into town or a BBQ.They are a very nice looking boot. Just because these boots don't have the traditional leather sole doesn't mean they won't look good in any situation. Barn or party, the choice is yours.
Very light and I can wear all day.
30 day mark- durability, fit, and comfort all outstanding. Have owners several Durango boots over the years and these are the best for everyday comfort in a work boot (if no steel or composite toe required).The last 2 pairs of Durango's cowboy work boots lasted over 4 years each so expecting these to do the same. This is ky first pair of ultra light and so far so good. If you are looking for a good western cowboy work boot that is comfortable and durable and priced reasonable- you cannot go wrong.
I've only had these boots for a week, light as a tennis shoe quality on boot appears great. I have many many boots over the years as I grew up on a small ranch in North Dakota. My own boots weren't getting worn because of my tile floors are too noisy. I shouldn't have let some of my old boots go as some had crepe sholes when I retired. But these after a lot of research and for the cost they are a bargain. Read a review and recommend one size smaller if you have narrow feet like me. Can't speak to durability but I think they will outlast their affordability. I have had many expensive boot makers but will not be afraid to buy Durango.
Very comfortable boots and light weight more of a work boot than western
Good fit
These boots are the most comfortable and lightest boots you can buy. I typically wear an 11.5 US shoe. I found that the 10.5 boot size fits me the best. This is the second pair I have owned and I will certainly buy a third if they keep making them.
The most comfortable pair of boots I’ve ever owned.
