Description
What is it with cowboy boots that makes millions of people all over the world feel at home in pair? With enduring allure, the boot is one of the great enigmas of modern society. Now, more than 150 years after the cowboys roped the ranges and galloped through the tallgrass and sagebrush, we're simply enamored with what they wore on their feet. Plain brown and black boots are still the mainstay of cowboy boot making, but the eye-poppin', snake-stompin', spine chillin' designs created by individual artists are the ones that capture our hearts and imagination. Since the publication of The Cowboy Boot Book in 1992, the number of bootmakers across the country has nearly doubled, waiting lists have compounded, and the art of the boot has risen to mind-blowing proportions. The men and women who create our fancy footwear are both fascinating and funny. Their tales and artworks exhibited here are testament to the high-minded dedication of a down-to-earth contingent of craftspeople. Tyler Beard and Jim Arndt have created an incredible gathering that will leave your toes twitchin' and your dogs barkin' for a new pair of boots.
