If you take a look around our store, you’ll notice that we offer a lot of boots that stray a little from the traditional cowhide leather cowboy boot. From ostrich to crocodile, there’s a whole world of cowboy boot materials out there, and we want to help you better understand the benefits of each type of material so you can choose the very best boots for your application.
Cowhide Leather — By far the most popular material for western boots, cowhide leather is great for outdoor work, and it allows your feet to breathe. Cowhide leather is loved because it’s more affordable than most other boot materials and it wears well over time.
Ostrich — A highly desirable skin for boots, this unique material comes in a few different styles: Full Pin Quill, Partial Quill and Smooth. Full pin quill is very bumpy, while partial quill comes with some bumpy parts and some smooth parts, and smooth skin has no bumps at all. Ostrich boots offer the best of all worlds: a unique look combined with high durability.
Lizard — Another great option for cowboy boots is lizard skin boots. These boots often come from the skin of hornback or alligator lizards and feature some great and unusual looks. Alligator lizard boots come with the added benefit of being easy to shine due to the skin’s hard tiles.
Snakeskin — Featuring small, ornate tiles, snakeskin boots produce very complex patterns that can’t be imitated by other types of skin. This beautiful material can come from many different types of snakes, including rattlesnake, python, cobra and others.
Of course, these aren’t the only types of materials that can be used to make cowboy boots. Some manufacturers make boots from elephant skin, alligator skin, eel skin, anteater, goatskin, bison, elk, shark and even kangaroo. Any natural leather can work well for cowboy boots, and some manufacturers even make boots from man-made materials to cut costs.
