I am just wondering I just got back from shopping and my little sister picked out a pair of mens cowboy boots and she intends to wear them to go dancing at a club and she said you cannot really tell the difference btwn the men and womens cowboy boots . what do you all think is it okay for a woman to wear a mans cowboy boot ?

Why on earth would it NOT be okay? She should wear the boot that fits best.

I once went shopping for cowboy boots in San Marcos, TX. Many of the same styles were available for both men and women. I wear a wide-width shoe and the men's boots were just more accommodating. I would never spend that kind of money on a quality and boot and not have it fit properly. I was so glad that the style I wanted was available in the men's size.

Since mens' shoes tend to be made a little larger, if she's going dancing, I would go in the dressing room and test the shoes out with some dance steps so the boots don't slide and cause blisters.
I have a pair of boots that were given to me and I don't know if they're mens or womens and they fit me okay as long as I'm standing around but the line dancing is another story and I got blisters when I moved around the way line dancing does.
So be careful

A lady would never wear a cowboy boot -- regardless of what gender it was made for.

If the shoe fits wear it, lol. Seriously she should wear whatever she wants. I wear men's sneakers all the time because they fit me better. I'm not going to try and squeeze into a woman's sneaker and be uncomfortable.

As far as cowboy boots like one poster said a lot of the same style come in men's and women's. No I don't think 99% of the people can tell and I really don't think they'll care if your sister wears a men's cowboy boot. And if they do they need to get a life, lol.

I know people who shop in the young boys department all the time because the clothes there are cheaper than the women's department. Almost the same clothes at a cheaper cost. Makes sense to me.

I once borrowed my husband's thick Winter sweather and kept it. People kept telling me how good it looked.

No she shouldnt. Women have their own section and they should go shop there. If its ok tk wear guys boots, then is it ok for men to wear womens?.
