Although the classic eel skin cowboy boot is hard to beat, eel skin boots are not just for cowboys anymore. Women can have their own sleek eel skin boots that reach to their knees, rise just above the ankles and teeter on 2-inch heels.
Instructions
1. Decide which style of eel skin boots you desire: cowboy boots; high, zippered boots with 2-inch heels; short, half-half boots with 2-inch heels; or high, buckled eel skin boots with high, wedged heels.
2. Go to your local department stores to examine their selections. Stores like Macy's or Bloomingdales can be an excellent source for women's eel skin boots, but many similar stores may carry them, too. A cowboy outfitter or a western wear retailer would also be a good source for more traditional eel skin boots.
3. Go online to eBay. EBay can be a source of both women's and men's eel skin boots of various sizes. Remember to ask questions of the seller, and study the photographs carefully.
4. Explore Amazon. Amazon has expanded their stock to include practically everything you can imagine, including eel skin boots with wedge-shaped heels.
5. Look at online retailers like Nashville Boots or Bardee Boots for more traditional eel skin boots. They have a wide selection and lots of colors.
6. Get your eel skin boots custom made by boot makers like James Leddy Boots, Bell Custom Boots, the Kimmel Company and others.
