Overview

Not a tall riding heel, this Cody James boot rides on a low stacked stockman heel that suits walking and long days on foot. Goat leather forms the upper, with cowhide lining and hand laid cording on the shaft.

Goat leather and a low heel make a comfortable everyday western boot with traditional cording detail. It has a leather sole and no water resistance, so wet ground is a poor match.

Who it's for

Daily wear in town, at events or around dry barns suits this boot. People working in rain and mud need a water resistant work boot.

Pros and cons

Cons
  • Not water resistant

Performance notes

Comfort on foot comes from the low stacked heel, which shifts less weight forward than a taller riding heel. The goat leather upper softens with wear, while the leather sole gives less grip on wet surfaces.
