As for the expanded form, this feature is directly related to the preservation of the rider's life.

Some species of cowboy boots are a little shorter than usual, it is connected with the need to provide even greater safety and the opportunity to get rid of the shoes as in Rodeo.
Cowboy boots round shape of Cape and a little narrowed.
Such a designer solution allows the rider easier to overstead the leg in the stirrup. Some models often can be seen an elongated sharp cape, however, in working with horses, he can rather harm than to bring well, so that they are only suitable for everyday life.
The leather smooth sole helps it easily slide the foot by aspiring, thanks to which it is easier to sit on the horse and hurry from it. But the bezed low heel will hold away from the falling legs into it, because it happens, and the situation could have ended the deplorable.
