I do too!  Now, in my middle aged years, I have enough callous on my 
rear to handle the flames that follow such statements.

This is true, according to the clerk here at Miller Stockman.

No, Not currently.  It was the Ariat "Winter" until they wore out & 
couldn't be replaced.  But, I have normal to narrow feet.  I'm tempted 
to buy another brand and get them just a little big.  Then buy the Ariat 
foot-beds and put in them.  I'm really kind of devastated that Ariat 
took perfection and screwed it up.

I'm sure there are some really good custom boot makers out there.  But, 
I'll be darned if I can afford them.  If I hear of anything, Glenda, 
I'll surely let you know.
