It never ceases to amaze me and cause a laugh when I see searches with questions like, “are boot cut jeans meant to be worn inside or outside the boots?”
\n\"Bootcutjeans\"\"Lucclassic\"And leave it to google to direct the person asking that question to the most frequently visited page on my website, “Wearing Cowboy Boots”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So, what about those boot cut jeans?
\n
\nTechnically, “boot cut” means that the jeans have a circumference or opening at the bottom that are slightly wider than straight-leg jeans, so boot cut jeans are meant to be worn over cowboy boots. Most confident, secure men wear straight-leg jeans over boots anyway, and seldom have a problem with the opening of the jeans to be too narrow to fit over boots. <\/p>\n

\"Luclizardwingtip09\"A little history, boot cut jeans were invited by Levis back in the ’80s as a marketing ploy — not for any other purpose. Levis began offering boot cut jeans about the same time that they began offering tapered leg jeans (for a while; tapered leg jeans for men never took off and were discontinued.)<\/p>\n

Soon thereafter, Wrangler, Dickies, and all the rest began to offer boot cut jeans for retail sale at higher prices than straight-leg, regular denim jeans. It costs jeans makers just the same to make boot cut as straight leg jeans, but you are charged more for boot cut jeans than any others. Why pay the price for something you don’t really need? <\/p>\n

Life is short: wear straight-leg, regular denim jeans, pull on your boots, stand tall, smile, and walk like the confident guy you are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
