For us, ropers strike a great balance — not quite as rodeo as a full-on cowboy shape, and a little more rugged than a Chelsea. There's not much they can't do. (Well... maybe don't wear them with a suit.) This pair is made up in a special suede with a waxed finish that makes them especially versatile. There's a subtle M-stitch at the side and green piping along the top, but our favorite part is the Dainite sole, which makes them outdoors- and bad-weather-friendly.
