Most of my time lately has been taken up about one kind of cowboy boot or another. Sometimes it’s ostrich skin boots, sometimes it’s caiman or some other exotic skin boots. Some by Lucchese or some by Tony Lama. We’ve talked about many different styles of boots made from exotic leathers, toe types, and even what you can wear with them. Today I want to talk about men’s short cowboy boots. Sometimes referred to as “ankle boots”. When we say short, we are of course talking about the shaft of the boot.
The boots in particular range from a 7-inch shaft to an 8-inch shaft, nothing taller. The norm for a cowboy boot is anywhere from 10 to 13 inches in men’s boots. I’m sure there are some others that very a little taller or a little shorter, but as I said, this is the norm.

Why Would You Want A Short Cowboy Boot?
Well, that is a good question and I hope I have some good answers for you.
The first reason that comes to mind is the style of the boot itself. With a short shaft, this gives you options on what you can wear them with. A regular long pair of cowboy boots you pretty much are confined to wearing them with a boot cut pair of jeans or a loose pair of dress pants. Regular fitting jeans or lord help me, a pair of skinny jeans are pretty much out of the question. With a pair men’s short cowboy boots, they are designed to wear with just about anything. The top of the boot is pretty form fitting to your leg unlike a pair of boots with a taller shaft like regular cowboy boots. So if you have a favorite pair of Levi’s or Wranglers that aren’t boot cut, these boots will look perfect with them. There are several different types of pant styles being worn with cowboy boots today. Sometimes a pair of short boots go better with one style than another.
Another side note when it comes to style, I basically talked about the style of the boot and how it affects wardrobe. I didn’t mention though how cool these boots look. They are a good-looking boot. They are kind of cross between a normal cowboy boot that you typically think of and a nice pair of Italian dress shoes. The ladies actually love these boots. When I wear a pair and when a woman notices them, I always get a compliment on how great they look or how fashionable I am. Something to that effect. It’s pretty funny, but I’ll take it.

Second reason you might want to get a pair of men’s short cowboy boots is comfort. Now this doesn’t affect me, but it may affect you. Some people just don’t like cowboy boots because of the shaft but they still like the overall look of the boot. Hey, that’s just personal preference and I respect that. To each his own. With a pair of short cowboy boots, when you slip on a pair of jeans, you still get the look of a cowboy boot (that’s because it is a cowboy boot lol). This is a win win situation for you if the comfort of a regular boot is an issue.
