1. Cost: You should ask yourself if these boots are for play time or for dressing up and going out. If your child will be running around outside, stomping water puddles and kicking dirt, then you should definitely avoid spending a lot of money on these boots. If you plan on buying boots for dressing up then spending the extra green to acquire a quality pair of boots would be wise.

2. Durability: This one also requires you to ask yourself what these boots will be used for. Play time or dress up?

Reinforced soles and waterproof material are essential to a longer lasting pair of cowboy boots.

Have your child test the boot out for comfort by walking around the store a few times. Insist that they explain to you if anything doesn't feel right. You can purchase boots with an inner lining that acts as an insulator to ensure maximum comfort and warmth for the feet.

Remember that cowboy boots will require a break in period. The best boots are the older ones in your closet for a reason... The more you wear them the more they tend to "understand" the shape of your foot and how you fit into them. Your child Is no different and should be informed of this process.

One more thing to note is the style of the kids cowboy boots. Styles range from mild to wild for the children. You can buy purple alligator skin boots, green eel skin, or traditional western styled boots. Again, it all depends on when and where the boots will be worn. Allow your child to be a kid and have fun with them and let them have some input on the situation!
