Justin Roper Boots

History of the Roper Boot Justin roper boots are comfortable and versatile cowboy boots handcrafted with pride and precision. The first roper boot styles were created by John Justin Jr. when the Rodeo Cowboy Association issued a ruling that required proper footwear and apparel for rodeo contestants. As a result, calf ropers asked John Justin Jr. to create a boot specifically designed for roping. Justin created the roper based on a flat-heeled shoe mold originally used to construct boots for the Army and ROTC cadet officers. By pairing a flat unit heel with a round toe and eleven-inch shaft, the roper cowboy boot was born. With a flat heel, short boot height, and cushioned insole, this new style of cowboy boots provided grip, security, and comfort for riders in and out of the saddle. worn for rodeos, ranch work, and fashionable style. Justin ropers include full-grain leather exteriors, durable outsoles, and the hallmark features of original roper boots that calf ropers have trusted for generations.
