The original Bluebird cowboy boots were made for Gene Autry by Olsen-Stelzer cowboy boots. A model still available today.
I’ve been buying some vintage clothing too & while I have not had to return anything yet, I’m finding the manufacturers sizing can vary also. So it’s sort of a crapshoot!
No kidding Jack. This one is tagged size 17 but yet armpit to armpit width was only 22.5”. I always ask for measurements if not already provided, makes for easier returns.
Those are something. I’m especially glad that blk/gray one is too small. I’d wear that.
Same here. Not only too small, too expensive for me.
Same here but I've been known to step off the ledge before.
Yee Haw! Love it. As I’ve said before I don’t have the cahones to wear it out the door but in my minds eye I’d rock the hell out of that.
