Durango Men’s & Women’s Cowboy Boots

Not for no reason, Durango has become an official boot of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Besides an appealing look, Durango western boots boast several performance-enhancing features that promote NFR participants into NFR champions.

What Makes Durango Boots Unique

You’ll be happy to know that the company makes several styles of western footwear for men, women, and kids to cover as many tasks as possible, from rodeo boots to fashion booties. For example, basic Durango work boots feature oil- and slip-resistant outsole with no nails for ultimate electric hazard protection and a protective toe (steel or composite). Advanced work and some rodeo boots also feature waterproof construction with a polyurethane membrane free of environmentally harmful PFC. The best waterproof models include the Durango Rebel, a.k.a. American Flag Durango Boots, the Lady Rebel, the Maverick Pro, and the Maverick XP (the collection contains lace-up boots).

Other technologies include a fiberglass double shank, shock-absorbing insole, puncture-resistant outsole, hidden gore expansion system for universal fit and easy on/off, memory-foam footbed, mesh lining for superior air circulation, and many more.

Durango Cowboy Boot Fit Tips

Compared to sneakers, shoes, and lace-up boots, the instep (the vamp) of a western boot should fit snugly. So keep in mind that it may be difficult to slide your foot into the boot at the start. If this is your case, make sure your socks aren’t wet, then apply a light portion of talcum powder or silicone spray inside the boot.
The widest part of your foot, also called the ball, should sit on the widest part of the boot. That way, the shank will provide the needed support.
The heel should NOT feel snug at first. It will mold your foot over time.
Measure both feet with socks on to pick the boots that fit perfectly.

Taking Care of Durango Western Boots

To ensure your boots remain looking just as good as they did the day you pulled them out of the box, you need to clean them after every time you wear them. Wipe leather with a damp cloth and use a soft brush to remove stubborn stains and clean stitching. Let wet boots dry for 24 hours at room temperature before wearing them again. Don’t try to speed up the drying process because heat dries out leather and causes cracks. Condition your boots to prevent natural leather dry-out and store them in a clean, dry, dark location with regulated temperatures.
