R Watson Men's Western Exotic Boots
You
want a stylish exotic boot, with arch support, and
cradle comfort?
R Watson Boot Company understands how to make a
great handcrafted boot.
Pricing is fair and the quality is higher than many!
We know you can find
all sorts of western boots today. And to find a good
pair sometimes gets confusing. Most of the major
"brands" offer everything from not built so
well to built very well. This page, these RWatson
cowboy boots are targeted to those with a bit of
discriminating taste. ( Cheap ain't
inexpensive! It's cheap! ) Cheap cost much
more in the long run. (I know I'm preaching to the
choir here!)
What we have found is
that the consistency and quality of these R Watson
exotic boots allow us to be proud to provide them for
you. How are the
heel counters made? Sturdy! Why - the heel counter that
you cannot see is what will determine whether your foot
has a tendency to break over the outside of your heel.
Once this happens, you not only lose support under your
feet, they start to hurt.
Are the soles welted
so that my boots can be resoled? Yes - This hand welting
process takes a lot more skill than injection molding,
which is why so many brands are turning to that process.
Skilled labor is in short supply so R Watson pays an
attractive wage - you get a better product when the
bootmakers care about your satisfaction
Is the toe box made of
preformed material that
sweats your toes, or is it breathable? They do allow
air to circulate without being trapped in your socks,
will avert foot fungus, and will help the boot materials
to last much longer. Does air flow
around as well as moisture flowing through to the
outside of your footwear? This happens with the
materials used in R Watson dress boots. Be careful to purchasing a
boot that's not too small. Your heel should
slip a little when you step in your new boots. This
pumps the air around your foot like the design was meant
to be.
How about the linings?
Glove linings are the norm here and the rear of the
shaft has enough support that the boot lining will not
tear with the pressures of your putting on or
pulling off your boot. And these glove leather
linings breath!
Without going into all the details, (Which we will do if
you call to ask), you can trust R Watson cowboy boots to be
moderate in price and way above moderate in longevity, and
comfort. Also: the bed of your boot has a full leather
lining on the inside to prevent "kicking up of the
shorter heel pads used on many boots.
Why a 10 row stitch pattern? - It crafts body into the
structure of the leather shafts. The decorative
stitching functions to keep the top from falling onto
your ankles over time. The patterns are engineered
through experience to enable support where needed,
without limiting range of motion while walking or
especially running in your boots. (They break in
better.) R Watson also uses some corded stitching
to also accomplish this, with less flamboyance. (Many
makers cut labor and material costs with fewer rows. As
we approach 13 inches in height, or more, the designers
need to add features to benefit your long term comfort.)
Mr. Randy Watson was past President of Justin
Industries. His experience, the trust our industry has
for him, and his caring for both the makers and wearers
of boots brought him back into boot making. 40 years of
experience need not go down the drain!. He came out of
retirement, and when various other opportunities fell
into place, he began R.
Watson Boot Company.
One of our customers
came into Cultured Cowboy and said. "You gotta put
these boots in your store. They're the old Justin's you
used to carry." It took a few months, but now
Cultured Cowboy & R Watson boots are teaming
together to bring you "excitement" in Western
footwear!
We trust and know R
Watson boot knows exotics, and you can be assured of a
great experience for many years to come!
ALSO: Together we're
working on the "patrol boot" which will
work as a great boot for airline pilots. Shiny black,
tall enough not to catch on your pants, and non-slip
bottoms, moderate heel, rounded toe. NO steel to set off
alarms at airports!
Also, the old Justin
545 & 414 lacers in Bay Apache along with the black
bullhide 5220counterpart, so popular among rodeo riders is
coming back through Cultured Cowboy! (& R.
Watson)
See the pics below & let us
serve you!
Ostrich boots
feel like a sock with a sole. Your feet just mold
into the supple leathers. The full quill ostrich
allows a lot of air circulation and dissipation of
moisture away from your feet, adding to the comfort.
Ostrich can be another perfect Western dress
boot for semi-formals. (Remember to plan months before your
wedding date. )
And perfect for a hot date too! So good on
your feet, you'll have a hard time not wearing men's
ostrich boots for every occasion! This
boot (Wide Square style shown) can be "Rock 'N Rolled" with boot
trim. Your choices of toe tips, heel caps, and boot
bracelets or chains. Either antique gold or gold tone styling will make you proud to sing
"Proud Mary". ... rollin, rollin, rollin
in yer Watsons!
