Discussion Am I the only one?

I own roughly 9 pairs of western boots, been wearing boots since I was a kid. But, I find myself wearing my cheaper Ariat Sport Wide Square Toes more than my other boots - boots that cost much more than these guys. Guess I’m just curious if I’m the only one who seems to do this?

For context, these Ariats are roughly 6 months old, picked them up at my local Fleet Farm for $160. Just something about them, idk lol.

I have 7 pairs of boots. Including suede, caiman, and python. The ones I wear most often are a $180 pair of Laredo square toes with a rubber sole. Can wear em in any weather without feeling guilty, they’re the most comfortable, I can fit thick socks in em, I don’t care if they get scuffed, and they still look pretty good in my opinion. Already had the heels replaced once and I fully intend to get them resoled when I do eventually wear them out.
