The modern cowboy boot originates from various other styles including the Wellington boot. To begin with, this was a straight plain leather boot with one-inch heels. However, cowboys also wore Hessian boots. These had a v-cut in the front and hanging in the v was a silk or leather tassel.
Since then cowboy boots have evolved and become influenced by European cavalier styles of boot, which were made of better leather and had a higher heel. Also, the toes of these boots were squared or rounded and this stayed the same until around the 1950's.  Around 1920-1930 cowboy boots evolved to not only to be used to work in, but also as a fashion item. This was due to the increase in movies and radio shows, which were based upon the Wild West as well as rodeo's becoming a popular form of entertainment in the 1950's. Now, girls everywhere are wearing cowboy boots as a fun, flirty, and feminine way to dress up their outfit. Cowboy boots are now such a fashion item that the colors, designs follow any styles that have been made popular in films and by celebrities. These days, there are all kinds of boots available from dressy, to distressed, stiletto heel to one-inch heel. There are all sorts of colors available and now boot makers are even adding studs, rhinestones, and precious stones.
