A Retro Comeback
Boot straps, vintage ones at that, are rearing their heads again. You’re going to see them at music festivals. With cowboy boots, Docs, whatever. Some folks go full Western. Others throw them on for a cutting edge. No matter what your style, they do the job.
I don them when my outfit requires some personality. Even if I’m only going to get eggs.
The Takeaway
Fashion moves fast. But vintage sticks. Vintage boot straps aren’t just decorative— they’re chock full of stories and character. Good design doesn’t have to shout. It just needs to last.
So if you come across a pair at a garage sale or tucked in your uncle’s closet? Grab ’em. Let them get older. They’re not there quite yet.
And they’ll look cool on your boots, to boot.
