We went out to review women’s working boots that can get you through your tough workday, and still look good. We wanted find boots that are tough and comfortable, but did not sacrifice sex appeal.
At the end of our testing it was a Justin Boot blowout. Justin’s Gypsy Boots line dominated the scoreboards from our cowgirl testers, taking the top spots over the competitors in women’s work boots.
What are the best women’s boots for a working cowgirl?
Where can i find cowgirl boots?
Redwing came as close challengers, but just could not match the style offered cowgirls by Justin Boots. Justin’s J-Flex tech help them edge Redwing in the comfort department. This really caught our cow girl testers by surprise.

WKL9980 is an Aged Bark Justin Boot with Perfed Saddle Vamp and a Gypsy Round Toe. With a black rubber outsole and a 8” Aged Bark upper boot, this is a pair of boots in the Gypsy collection that you just got to have. With J-Flex and Steel Toe technologies, these pair of boots is perfect for on the job. To top it all off, the Electrical Hazard technology are great for those working in environments where the chance of exposure to electrical currents is high. But if you are looking for the boot with Non-Steel Toe, see (L9903).
The boot lost one point for not being water proof. We liked the stiching on this one the best, but it lost out to it’s sister boot the WKL9984 in the feature department. Why it made the list was that it was light weight, and super comfortable. We could not find a Redwing that matched it, which pretty much sealed the deal on the Justin’s Gypsy Boots line being the Queens of Work.

Summary:
Besides looking sexy, these women’s work boots had to be electrical hazard safe and offer steal toe protection in variety of hard work environments. Big bonus points were given if they were also waterproof boots. Really important since some of our testers found themselves in 3 inches or more of wet muck.
The new technology being offered by Justin Boots called J-Flex pretty won over our testers. J-Flex provided the best out of the box comfort. After a ten hour work day kicking ass, we were able to go straight to the dance floor to raise some hell.
Looks and comfort is what really separates the winners from the herd. Steel toe and being water proof was the expected by our reviewers, but the real trick was offering those features and being good looking and comfortable.
Justin Boots went outside the box, to break the dull and drab that seems to be the industry norm.
The real game changing technology in Women’s Work Boots is the J-Flex Flexible Comfort System from Justin Boots. It just feels good. We were expecting a few days of pain as the boots broke in, but they fit comfortably on the first day.
Factor X: Measuring Heart & Soul
Justin Boots won the top spots because of style, features, comfort, and durability. We did not factor in the social consciousness of the manufacturer in our testing. In an increasing “Me First” world, we think we should at least point out when a company does right as well as make things right.
