Los Altos Biker Boots Index Page

Exotic describes many of the biker lifestyles. Sole tread made for your lifestyle. Los Altos takes riding beyond the normal black & brown leathers. Yep, they have those too. But look at all the possibilities!

If you are familiar with better quality Western boots, you understand the value that handcrafted boots can provide. If they are new to you, you have to get through "working them in" to really understand how truly great they feel. All the comfort & style you expect, even more than you expect, from your motorcycle boots. (They get better with time, just like an old friend.)

Your friends will tell you to buy a handcrafted boot because they also hold up well. Los Altos boots are cut generously in size. They allow comfortable room for your arches. Until they break-in, they will slip on your heels. ( In fact they are always going to slip a little, the design is different than a short quarter shoe, so the slipping will not rub blisters on your heels. Rather, it adds to your foot comfort. See the next few paragraphs too.)

The leather boot system, with all sorts of foot fitting innards, provides a shock absorbing, arch supporting, surface for most casual and dress wearing conditions. Styles add a rubber bottom to the leather inner sole system for more durability & slip resistance.

Although a "cowboy boot" is one of the first things you look for, when dressing for cowboy events, people wearing Western dress boots do not always wear them just to look like cowboys. The arch support and quality craftsmanship allow us to go all day without sore feet and aching backs or legs. As you walk, Western style boots pump air around your feet, which aids in dissipation of moisture, and even more comfort for you. This is why you do want some slippage on those heels!) And yes, a biker boot has it's beginnings in the cowboy boot of old.

Proper foot care now, will pay tremendous dividends in all your years to come. Cheap made shoes create all sorts of problems with feet, knees, & hips, years from now. And soft bottom tennis shoes, designed for active sports, were never made to wear all day.

Los Altos Boots As we continue to search out the whole world for the best values in Western boots, Cultured Cowboy will keep adding pages! Los Altos Boots have been around for decades. Plants in the USA & Mexico. Inspecting their quality, it's a very nice exotic boot for the money. Exotics are their specialty, and they offer a wide variety of styles in most popular Western Exotic Boots. Cultured Cowboy is tickled to provide these guys for your selection. These boots are not using any endangered animals. Alligators & Ostriches are a farm grown food source in many parts of the world. Piraracu comes from overpopulated areas of the Amazon River. Lizards, snakes, and other such creatures' features are also used with careful consideration of humane animal control. Good ecosystems depend on not wasting any part of the animal. If there is any criticism of Los Altos Boots, it would be that each boot is not always available in both D & EE widths. Cultured Cowboy will be happy to work with you as to which size would be best for your particular needs. Over time, Los Altos has been offering more selection in both widths. However, their more limited width selection means they can get the ones they do make, faster for deliveries. - Seems everyone has a shortage of workers. This company does a great job of training & quality control! God Bless, Thanks. Here's some boot terminology: Rancher Boots - super roper heel & a wide round or square toe box Usually an 11 or 12 inch top. European Square toe - Many companies call this a "cutter toe". Easier to catch a stirrup. extends further than a wide square toe. Rodeo Boot - Like the rancher with a Medium square toe. Slight spur ridge. 12 inch top. Popular with riders & spectators. Roper Boot - An English Wellington. Rounded toe, about a 1 inch block heel. Mostly 10 inch top. Charro Boot - An ankle boot designed for durability & comfort. Lateral support. Usually elastic entry. Side Zipper Boot - Usually a shorter shaft, the zipper allows a more contoured upper fit; easier entry for many wide or aged feet. J toe Boots - Narrow Round toe. The more narrow the toe, the more the front tip extends past your actual toes. Toes don't cross. This adds length appearance to many people sensitive about wide feet. R Toe Boots - Medium wide toes. This has been the most popular style over the past decades. Fashion comes & goes, but this toe has passed timelessly. U toe Boots - a wider round toe, not obnoxious, but accommodates feet with wider toe box needs. Square toe Boots - From the handmade square on very pointed boots, snip toe boots, medium square & wide square boots, choose a fashion that fits both personality & feet. The newest fashion statement in square toe boots is the "cutter" toe : Medium square that may or may not be slightly undercut. Leather sole boots - A favorite for dancing. With Los Altos boots, there will be a matching leather insole & A cork or similar midsole. Breaks in well. Often maximum arch support. After a few weeks, you can run your hand inside your boot & feel every hump & bump made as it has customized to your feet. Sometimes a thinner cushion layer is placed over the leather insole. Almost always there is a comfort heel pad over the insole. Rubber sole boots - Durable. Flexes well. Usually with a cushioned insole. We almost always give up some comfort in traditional leather sole boots for the extended durability of these "tire rubber" soles. Much more slip resistant. Combo sole boots - To allow the comfort of leather with more durability, Some soles add the rubber as inserts within the leather. This Los Altos Index page Includes: Los Altos Biker Boots.

Exotic Boot Care:

Alligator boots need a reptile conditioner and delicate cream for conditioning. These products are designed to condition the scales and the membranes between the scales of the exotic skin. Then, use a matching cream polish to protect the boot from scuffs, or to cover existing scuffs.

Ostrich boots need a delicate cream for conditioning, and sometimes a de-salter to remove salt from the skin. ( If you see white lines after wearing, you need a de-salter.) These products are designed to recondition this exotic skin. Leather balm can be used to clean ostrich. Then, use a matching cream polish to protect the boot from scuffs, or to cover existing scuffs.

Non-Exotic Leather Boot Care:
All Leather is skin removed from internal sources of moisture. Leather Balm is a good "cleaner conditioner" that will add moisture but do little change in the coloration of leather once applied. Heavier conditioning? Lexol Conditioner is great. Cultured Cowboy carries both wax paste polish and moist cream polishes. Use a complementing color & apply as needed.

You might add Sno-Seal, Mink Oil, or Sno-Pruf for waterproofing conditioners. Apply with a soft brush, use a hair dryer about 1 foot away and let the beeswax base melt into the leather pores, Do it twice, especially the seams, and enjoy more weather proofed protection. -Still breathes with your feet, while keeping water out.

Cultured Cowboy has spray silicone & combo water-proofers, but they totally seal & can add heat to your feet. These silicone spray weather protectors are better for fabrics, tents, etc. There are some special weather-proofers that do well with suede & roughout leathers.

There may be several boot care products you are interested in. Just ask about what all you may enjoy...boot hooks, boot jacks, horsehair brushes to apply and polish, etc. We have it all for you. You see, we want these boots to last a good long time for you! Just a little care will make them go a lot farther. Be sure to wipe the dust and dirt off the skins with a soft cotton cloth each time you take them off after wearing. This keeps dust and dirt from cutting into the leathers.
