"Fashion" is fickle. Don't be "fashionable." Have some style. "Timeless Style" focuses on iconic pieces that have stood the test of time. This series is focused mostly on menswear, but some of these items are unisex as well.
This episode: The @Chisos No. 1 cowboy boot. Cowboy boots have been a staple of American style for over 150 years, but can you still wear them in the modern age? Spoilers: Yes you can. You don't have to be a cowboy or live in Texas to wear cowboy boots, and the Chisos No. 1 boots are some of the best I've ever worn.
Chisos provided me with the boots featured in this video, but all of the opinions expressed are my own.

Go full cowboy anytime - it’s a state of mind not a geography … own it
You cant be scared to wear your cowboy boots. Cowboy is a mentality, not always an occupation.
been wearing Cowboy boots since 1970… never been a Cowboy…lived in Indiana Virginia Florida Massachusetts & Kentucky… Wear Stetsons, own & travel on Harleys for 40+ years…my “style” has never changed. Blame it on the TV & Movie Westerns from the 50s & 60s. Nice work with the review. The Chisos are my next pair of Cowboy Boots! living the good life in Louisville 😎
I’m in TN…I wear a cowboy hat, western shirt and always boots. Occasionally someone will yell to me: “where’s your horse?” If I’m in a bad mood I’ll say at your mother’s house, I’ll ride both later. If I’m in a good mood, I’ll respond with the truth: “ at my house “.
We own a horse farm and I’ve worn boots all my life (I’m boomer Gen). Up till about 5- 10 years ago Lucchesse was THE go to boot. However they have plummeted in quality and are - for a large part- relying on their reputation. They still make a great custom product. The Chisos boot is a terrific value, and I believe the best off the shelf boot made today. Black Jack makes a great boot as well with many different styles/choices. I only wear snip toes so many other quality companies focus on the (now) popular square toe boots. I have bad knees and I prefer snip toes to easily get into stirrups. I own 3 pairs of Chisos and I’m glad they are getting recognition , well deserved.
Cheers! I went to a Lucchesse store while I was in Austin, and I would have to say that the quality of the Chisos seemed a cut above.
@@stuffandthingsyoutube Lucchese still makes quality boots - the handmade higher end boots specifically and their custom boots. However you’ll need to start at probably around 1500 to get the similar quality found in Chisos. Yiu can probably get a goat or something around 1100-1200 custom done from Lucchese and those are better value than their 500-900 boots.
After watching Kirby Alison’s videos on getting a custom pair of boots made, I really got a renewed appreciation for cowboy boots. To be honest, I don’t think I could pull them off, but I do appreciate the aesthetic. As long as like you said, you don’t try to go full giddy up.
Chisos are Hands down the Best Boots made !!!
I’ve got the #2s in every single color !! Best decision ever !!
Leon Mexico is considered the shoe capital of the world . A lot of texans go down there to get their boots . Cause you get the best quality leather boots for the best price compared to out here in the states
Those are really nice boots and are much better constructed than lucchese's for nearly half the price. Living in Texas nearly all my life cowboy boots have been a staple piece in my wardrobe as long as I can remember. If you do not have cedar boot trees you should definitely consider investing in some definitely a good investment for helping preserve such a nice pair of boots.
Don't worry! I use cedar trees for all my leather footwear.
very nice, Bradley - i've been wearing cowboy boots, hats, & western wear since around 2017 - it is timeless, and it's my honest opinion that most people would be surprised by how comfortable properly fitted boots & hats are ...
I’m from NYC, we nothing but sneaker and crocs here … And I’m getting me one of these boots 100%… I’m a city boy with a western heart
I've recently taken an interest to cowboy boots - everything about them is cool! But I feel like an outsider, and the people these brands represent - I am not that type of person. However, after watching your video, I think my mind may be changed... like you said, they don't look so outrageous if you cover them up and don't go "full cowboy". Thanks for the talk at the end, dude. Awesome boots.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
I’m a Brit who wears cowboy boots! In fact I’ve about 15 pairs. However, I concur with your comment about how far one dresses “cowboy” in non-cowboy places. I’ve spent years developing my own western style that’s not so OTT it labels me as weird! I do wear a wide brimmed hat, but it’s an Australian Akubra that doesn’t look typically cowboy. A leather trucker jacket in winter completes my look with a mid-eastern shemagh as a scarf, rather than a bandera. One day, I hope to visit Chisos in Austin and get myself a pair, but to avoid a huge tax bill, that’ll have to wait! Great video, great boots and company. Thanks.
Nice! It was a great experience getting to visit Chisos in Austin. I hope you get to do the same some day.
I looked at Chisos and passed. I just felt they were a bit over priced. I stick with Republic, Alvies, Hondo, Fenoglio and Horse Power. I have a few pairs of Techovas and they are okay. I do like their crepe sole boots the best.
Thanks for sharing!
Man this makes me miss my old Sancho cowboy boots.
I’m a Texan and I’ve been wearing cowboy boots for the majority of my life. There’s a common misconception that only cowboys wear cowboy boots, cowboy hats and other “western” wear and that just isn’t the case. It’s a cultural lifestyle that many people in this state embrace mainly because it’s how we were raised and it’s how we grew up. It’s just who we are.
Bradley, if you really want to complete the ensemble…get you some Wrangler jeans and a Stetson hat! The general etiquette is… we wear felt hats from Labor Day to Easter…and straw hats from Easter to Labor Day. ;)
Nice! Even out in the "county" here in western Washington, plenty of people wear cowboy hats and boots.
Man, beautiful pair of boots wear them proudly! Also great job on the video in general. Came here for the boots, stayed for the history lesson and yes, I think Washington state needs Bradley to go full cowboy at least once. ;)
Thanks so much for watching! I hope lots of people see it!
What’s the sizing on these? Are they true to sneaker size or do they run big like redwings?
I usually wear 11 in athletic shoes and 10.5 in dress shoes. My Brannock size is 10.5 D, and my Chisos are that size as well. True to you Brannock size should work.
Roper western 3
These are the boots that Walker wears on the Walker: Texas Ranger remake series.
I heard that as well!
Tecovas are awesome cowboy boots and have great customer service. The most comfortable cowboy boots I've ever owned
I’m 54 years old, born and raised in Michigan and have been wearing boots since I was 14 years old. I ❤boots
I've worn my Durango Cowboy boot's Almost every day since the late 80's and they look as good today as the day I bought them
Great video,so there is a pointed toe,medium toe and do you know what the Rounder toe is called?
You guys are torturing us boot fetish guys!!
Speaking of practical and the east coast: I wear a pair of black Justin’s on my ambulance in NC. Those same boots, once cleaned, can be pressed-into-service with a suit and be equally appropriate. I’m a convert!
Haha! Nice!
Those are beauties 👌🏼 You should check out the Alberta boot company, they have been making cowboy boots right in western Canada for ages. Some of the nicest boots out there.
Thanks for the tip!
I really enjoyed this video and your perspective! I bought a pair of magic black #1s after wearing a pair of Lucchese ropers for almost 10 years. I love those Ropers, but my Chisos (I’m up to four pairs now) are really something special. I switched from straight legs jeans in my regular size to Wrangler boot cut jeans a couple inches longer than I wear with regular shoes, and I’ve found I really like that look. And as a fan of flat caps, I appreciated your cap with the boots!
Cheers! I'm glad you're enjoying the Chisos!
I live on the East Coast, right outside Philadelphia and I love my cowboy boots and get tons of compliments on them, got them in Colorado a few years back. Asking Santa for some casual cowboy boots this year as mine are a dressier style, they are truly an iconic look!
Thanks for sharing! Maybe some ropers in the future?
Thanks for the review, seems to be very nice decently-made boots, quite much better quality than Justin or T Lama, I'm in Finland and I wear Lucchese classics and Australian RM Williams Chelsea boots but this only when weather conditions are favorable(no rain , because of the leather soles
Very nice! Yeah, these Chisos really are exceptionally well made!
I wear the same two pair of Ariat cowboy boots everyday, ones steel toe and ones not. They're perfect for everyday wear, they're tough and still classy. I've waded ankle deep into water with no issues and had them super muddy. I've also worn the same pair out to formal occasions many times. The perfect shoe unless you want to go jogging lol
Nice! I haven't tried my Chisos in puddles yet, but living here (PNW) I'm sure I will!
How is the water proofing of these boots? Especially you live at a place that rains and snows a lot. They do look nice.
Not sure! I haven't had them in any rain yet.
I wear a pair of Ariat Heritage Ropers. Ropers are The understated cowboy boot.
I would love a pair of Chisos ropers too, in black!
Yes I am a fan of cowboy boots. Got a few pairs, one pair from Harley Davidson.
Nice!
Leather sole = back pain for fat guys like me.
Yeah, the squishy insoles on the Chisos are a lifesaver!
I bought a pair of Roper brand sidewinder boots earlier this year, and I love them. have always been a Tony Lama guy. I prefer the snip toe design. nice boots Brad.
Thanks for watching! Chisos has a square toe, but not a full on snip yet.
I have boots of many different brands but generally prefer Tony Lama as they seem to fit me better
You must watch Roseanvil, because of the information you got about the inside of the boot!!
I got the info from seeing the boot cut in half at Chisos and talking to the owner Will about it, but I’ll check Roseanvil out!
@@stuffandthingsyoutube oh I would totally recommend you do, Weston is the king of cutting footwear open!!
I wear Canada west boots everyday and have been considering the chisos as my next pair. I whole heartedly believe lucchese is an over hyped brand for the fashion industry these days. They may have there history to stand on but when they’re dropping quality and raising prices it’s hard to see a future for them. Will is doing great things and I think that’s where my money will go next!
I don't think you'll be disappointed!
@@stuffandthingsyoutube I don’t think so either I’m just stuck with the tough choice between No1 or No5 haha
Why lucchese has special anniversary American alligator boot for 15,999$$$.chisos American alligator boot for 4995$$$..
Very good review. You sold me.
Let me know if you get a pair!
Thank you for this. I was just thinking I needed a new pair to replace my old ariats. I just received my no.5 roughout and I couldn't be happier
Nice! I'd like to try their No. 6 roper at some point.
@@stuffandthingsyoutube most definitely. I believe the no.2 will be my next purchase from them. Also received one of their belts. Quality item aswell
How’s the no.5 sizing compared to your Ariat ?
@@aceofspades1542 my ariats are 10ee and had to go with a 10.5d from chisos. Little snug on the vamp for a week or two but after a year in them now they're like a glove
Cool Boots. Does Chisos make Biker Boots too?
No only cowboy boots.
Correct. Only Western style boots at the moment.
Hey Bradley, great video. As a proud Texan, please do us a favor and don’t wear those jeans with your boots. Nothing wrong with the straight legged britches, just buy some with a longer length. Your pants should “stack” on top of your boots, and not just reach the vamp. Where I’m from, that’s an easy way to tell if someone is “borrowing” our style, or if they actually know how to dress. Just some friendly advice!!!
And also, I agree about not over-doing it with western wear. As someone who is pretty sure I could pick out a drug store cowboy in a crowd, the goal is to wear it, and it look normal. You don’t want to stand out in the crowd, unless you’re going out, to an event, etc. Even then, you still don’t want to be the loudest person in the room. LoL
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed your stay here in my home, I hope we were hospitable and showed you a good time!!! Keep the videos comin’!!!
Thanks for watching! I had them hitched up a bit in the video to show the boots, but they normally stack a bit on the vamp. I can never get jeans to stack too much though, because I'm tall and thin. Those jeans I was wearing (size 30 36) are about as long as they come for my waist size.
@@stuffandthingsyoutube
Yes sir, I totally understand.
Like I said though, great video brother, keep ‘em comin’!!!
@@stuffandthingsyoutube
Off topic, what do you think of the Peterson version of Elizabethan, I smoked a couple bowls the other day, and really enjoyed it, but I never smoked the Dunhill version. Is it different, the same, better? What’re you thoughts? I’m sure you have a video about it, I just haven’t seen it yet. LoL
