The metal boot in the picture encapsulates the life of a cowboy in the wild west. The boot features a gear-shaped protrusion at the heel called a spur. Texas was once the largest cattle industry in the United States. Cowboys were tasked with herding cattle to Kansas in the north so that they could be delivered to the east coast via rail. Spurs were used to stimulate horses to gallop faster. Bell-like accessories were also popular boot decorations back in the day. You'll know a cowboy is approaching in Texas with the sound of clanging footsteps.
