Among men's cowboy boots , the most classic last is the so-called Pointed Toe, although it goes by several names. Whether it's Pointed, Classic, Marble, Round, or J-Toe, this is one of the lasts (or types of toe) that has been popular with the public for the longest time.

Several of our suppliers make boots with a Puntal last or toe. As mentioned above, this is a classic last that many people seek out for its shape, comfort, and style. Many consider it classic because it isn't as "pointed" as other lasts that have emerged in recent years (Chihuahua, 3X, 6X, etc.).
One of the characteristics of boots made with a pointed toe is the type of heel associated with them. These boots generally have a heel called a vaquero, which is angled inward toward the boot. It's not as pronounced as the Cuban heel, which had a much steeper and longer angle toward the center of the boot. It's worth mentioning that the Cuban heel hasn't been used for factory-made boots for many years. That doesn't stop many people from continuing to seek it out.
The point last is a great option for people looking for a classic last that looks good with jeans or dress pants, but who don't want to draw too much attention to themselves. It's a great option, though not the only one, among all the ones we offer at caballobronco.com .
