Shopping Online for Boy's Western Wear


I've been shopping at the local western wear outlet for years. With a husband who does shows at the rodeo and four sons who want to be just like Dad, we end up buying a lot of western apparel. This can be really expensive. I always thought I'd been getting a good deal at the western wear outlet, but I recently discovered that shopping online can save us a great deal of money. I have one son who is eleven and the other three are teenagers, so I have to replace their cowboy boots on a regular basis. They outgrow them every year, and of course they refuse to wear anything else. My husband's cowboy boots tend to be the most expensive, but since he doesn't outgrow them I don't mind investing a little more to guarantee he gets a pair that will last for years.

For his birthday last year I wanted to get my husband something really special, and this is when I first began searching online. I wanted to get him a pair of Lucchese pigskin wingtip boots that he'd been eyeing at the western wear store, and I went to an online site to see if I could find a difference in price. There was a huge difference. The boots were four hundred and twenty dollars at the store, but online the same pair was only three hundred and seventy-five. I was really excited when his birthday rolled around and I was able to give him exactly what he wanted, without breaking the bank.

It was the same thing when it was time to do back-to-school shopping for the boys. At the outlet, Wrangler jeans were about forty bucks a pair, but online they were around thirty. I found that I was able to buy the boys an extra pair each because of the money I'd saved. Usually, all of the boys get the same style of boots, whichever style is the cheapest at the outlet, but this online store had a wide variety of boots, all in the same price range. Jamie was able to get a pair of brown Justins for the same price as the black Dan Posts that Bill was "just dying for." Meanwhile, my youngest son Wyatt decided to indulge in a red pair, since this was the first time he'd been able to express his "individuality."

Shopping for my family will never be the same now that I've discovered the joy of shopping online, especially for cowboy boots and western wear. Christmas, birthdays and school shopping have all become more exciting for all of us. My husband has even gotten in on the action. For my birthday he decided to pay me back for the boots I got him by buying me my own pair of Luccheses - a gorgeous brown pair with detailed stitching. I get compliments every time I wear them, and they feel great, too. Now everyone in the family look and feel like a million bucks, without actually spending it for a change. I will never again go anywhere but online to shop for my family's clothes. I wish I'd found these savings years ago.
