SilverCanChaser - 2016-11-24 7:53 PM I love Twisted X and bought two pair of the wide toed pull on boots (like a romeo) but sadly they stopped making that style. I typically wear a 9 ladies size but I ride in a man's size 7 or 7.5 C width Ariat pull on roper. Sloppy so my foot will come out if I ever get in a bind but comfortable.
I also loved that boots. Why do companies quit making products that work? I haven't been real fond of their newer styles as it's hard to find ones that work but when they do...they are awesome!
I will third this! I won't be making my annual pilgrimage to the NFR trade shows this year to bawl out the Twisted X team, and I am quite upset about it. How they could take a comfortable well quality "horseman's" boot and turn it into what they have is unbelievable to me. Last year they told me their boot sales were down and they were probably going to just focus on the moccasins in the future. I could fix their problem in 5 minutes. Bad, bad, bad marketing.

Twisted X makes a number of different square toe boots.  The rep was at our store a month ago and I looked at the new styles.  Nothing was said about focusing on the moc's.

Thank goodness! Hoping something catches my eye in their new styles.

Two of my favorite new styles is a multi-brown patchwork with a square toe and a block heal and theres a boot with a blue/tan woven foot with a block heal and square toe.
