I live in New Mexico, so western boots are as normal as sneakers. I ordered a pair of packers almost 6 years ago and regretted not getting a toe bug! Pull on boots with a tall shaft are perfect for everything I want and need to do, from camping and most outdoor activities, to walking to work and standing on my feet all day. They also work perfectly for going out and about to the bar or a concert or any fun outing.
When I ordered my packers boots, I did the whole sizing process of taking the outline of my feet and sending them in. Those boots fit perfect, so I never felt the need to modify their advice.
Simple as this is now my 4th pair of boots from nicks. Problem was picking the leather, but I saw what I wanted them to look like and stuck with that.
