Cowboy boots—and cowboys themselves—have roots in Mexican vaqueros, the original cowboys of the Americas and celebs and “It” girls across the ages have famously worn a pair. We remember Madonna dusting up a pair in her Y2K “Don’t Tell Me” video, Susan Sarandon in Thelma & Louise sporting a fierce white pair standing atop her Thunderbird convertible, and Debra Winger two-stepping with John Travolta in some sexy cowboy boots in Urban Cowboy back in 1980. And millennial and Gen Z women have got the “cowboy boots are back” memo with Kendall Jenner, FKA Twigs and Dua Lipa living their best cowgirl lives in their favorite pair of boots.  Whether you’re looking to invest (‘cause truly good quality ones will cost you a pretty penny) or just wanting to channel a little Beth Dutton, Yellowstone style, we found the best cowboy boots for women to buy right now.  Here at Parade.com, we’re all about sharing products we love with our audience.
