Justin makes a good boot and I am partial to the roper heel. My current everyday working ropers are by Abeline Boots and I sure got my money's worth out of them. If it weren't for a new pair of spur straps across them you would think they were discards, but they are still working. I think you'll be happy with a pair of Justins. I was with my last pair.
Never liked cowboy boots. My arch is too high. I always wore my White's loggers in the saddle. Switched the saddle stirrups to overshoe style and never had a problem getting out of them. Spurs worked okay with them the few times I had to use them. Bad thing about cowboy boots is when you get to where you're going hunting they are useless. Slick soles are deadly in the bush, especially in the mountains! And cowboy boots just don't have the ankle support you'll need in rough country. Lace up packer style boots are no better. They have a teeny bit of tread on the bottom that's about enough to keep you from falling on your butt in a barn and that's about it. I take two pairs of boots with me when I'm packing in on horses: 8" leather White's and Caribou Sorels. Both will work in the stirrups so I'm ready for anyth kind of weather that comes up. Cowboy boots would just be an extra weight fashion statement.

A good cowboy boot is one that fits right and feels right.
I have never had a pair but I hear Justin are supposed to be really good boots.
