Cowboy boots with a suit ?

[TexasRedneck]

Huh? I've got a Tux that's cut for boots.....like I said - I own no shoes!

Wear the boots but not the spurs as they might scratch his fine European chair.

I say go with the boots, who wants a tight ass for a manager anyways.

I strongly agree with this. Dress nicely but wear whatever you'll be comfortable in to the interview. I'd rather get a job digging ditches than work for someone who's a dress snob.

Ive only worn boots to one interview, but they where 10" jump boots polished to a high gloss. I went straight to an interview from the parade field of a division pass and review with the 101st. I walk into this guys office wearing my full Class A uniform, Cav Stetson, spurs, boots, sabre whole 9 yards. I didnt get the job but turns out i wouldnt have liked it anyway. Everyone in there were snobby yankme's.

not only would i have given you the job, but i would have taken your picture, hung it on the wall, and made everybody take note as to how a real man dresses for success

If your interviewer seems to be judging you on "clean boots or clean shoes" you probably don't want the job. Wear some ball python and pack your 1911.. this is TEXAS!

Where I work, I wear ropers. we dress office casual.

OK, so this thread has nothing to do with guns, but its the only forum I'm a member of thats specific to Texas. Guys, ask your gals too:

I have a job interview on Monday, and discovered I'm going to need a new suit (kinda got a Texas spread going on around my waist and can't get in to any of my suits).
I've never needed to wear a formal suit whilst here in Texas. Is it acceptable to wear my comfy square toed cowboy boots with a suit, or should I just get a pair of casual pants and a sports jacket.

I'm not an oil magnate or a country and western singer.

You didn't leave much time for tailoring

Did you get the job?

Holy necro thread!!

Just one I found searching *penney*.

The question should be: Cowboy boots with Hawaiian shirt?

It's always half-laced combat boots with a Hawaiian shirt.

Boots are worn when it's personal time off, not a job interview.

You really need to ask...?

If Pony had said *I got these Bruno Maglis for the interview, is that too much*? you'da told him to wear ropers. It's just what you do.

Here, at TGT, during his time of from mowing.

cbig,

I wear boots every day.

I get to do so because I'm retired for almost 30 years at this point.

Boot wearing is perfectly fine for a job interview at the King Ranch, but not for a corporate job.

C'mon now, don't ignore me; we've grown so close.
