Craig; As I understand the problem, the issue with cowboy boots (or most other leather-soled boots for that matter) is that their smooth leather soles do not have enough grip to hold to a somewhat slick asphalt road surface when you put your foot down after stopping your cycle at an intersection. My solution to the fashion versus grip problem is a pair of the Justin cowboy styled work boots with their oil-resistant (and grippy) rubber soles. Perhaps the same would work for you? -- Marc Clarke, A12> going to wear my cowboy boots or combat boots when riding.
