I wore regular cowboy boots for a few years back in the day, went through three soles on two pairs.  But I developed a Morton's neuroma on my left foot, which is a painful nerve bundle caused by narrow toe space and raised heels.  I had to stop wearing boots and only wear wide, square-toe shoes.

A couple of decades later, an acquaintance turned me on to these.  First, I just liked the look, thought they looked mean.  Then I dug deeper and discovered this may be the pair I've needed.

Because they're kinda a hybrid, a cowboy boot with a modern workboot sole.  As such, the heel isn't as high as a normal cowboy boot, the main contributor to the neuroma.  And the sole is more cushioned than a traditional cowboy boot.  It's not as soft as a pair of sneakers but much more comfortable than traditional soles.  Plus, better traction.  The insides are also lined with some modern materials to increase performance.

And this particular model has a wide, square toe, just what I needed.  Alternatively, Dan Post makes a different model that's identical except it has a round toe.  Also, there is a steel-toe version of this boot but the upcharge is significant enough it's only worth it if you really need it.

Other reviewers have mentioned they have to go a size smaller than usual.  Not so for me - my regular size for shoes was the perfect fit with these.  I agree with the other reviews that you need to wear them a week to break them in, particularly the instep.

As of this writing I've been wearing them for a month and a half with no issues.  And I love them, they're my daily wear.  That acquaintance who turned me onto them, he too is very happy with his pair.  I look forward to wearing these for a long time.
