[QUOTE="Idlefellow, post: 329924, member: 598"] Authentic cowboy boots have a rounded toe; the pointy toes are a Hollywood affectation: "Rounded: Real, classic cowboy boots feature a toe that is tapered (i.e. smaller towards the tip), but also rounded. The shape of this toe let the cowboy of the old west easily slip his foot in and out of the stirrups. The rounded toe was just a little more practical than the extreme point. This toe is ideal for riding!" "POINTED: Pointed toe cowboy boots have been popular since at least the 1950s, but have been particularly prominent in modern fashion since the early 2000s. Pointed toes can be “needle pointed” (come to a sharp point), or can be slightly blunted (snipped) at the end of the toe." [/QUOTE]
