About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist John McCabe depicts four cowboy boots embellished with colorful details. "The great country music performers from the 1960s to the 1970s made certain to match their Nudie Cohn tailored suits with elegant cowboy boots," shares John. He bases one of the shoes on a great photograph of George Jones in a sea foam green suit and works out what boots would look best with the attire. John designs the other three for Conway Twitty, Porter Wagoner, and Ray Price.
