I was visiting from Calgary and looking for cowboy boots for Stampede and found a great deal on boots and a belt at Sheplers. I went to Pinto the day before and although they were nice, I wasn't looking to spend $600 on boots! I also went to Boot Star and although they had cool boots there, the staff never said anything and it made my mother and I feel really uncomfortable so we walked out. So when we went to Sheplers the next day we were relieved to find a comfortable atmosphere, reasonable priced items and the staff were incredibly nice and helpful. 5 stars for the staff! The only reason I took a star off is because the women's section of boots didn't have as many options as the mens, but they also said that was because there wasn't as large of demand.
