Cowboy boots were originally intended for use on a horseback. But today they’re more about fashion than work. This is not the case for spurs, although, you certainly can wear spurs as a fashion only.  You can find different spur styles, from varying neck length to various rowel designs. They come in a wide variety of materials. There are spurs with fancy decorative details such as silver, bronze, and gold. Spurs are often worn as part of Western-style apparel. For example, men may wear a cowboy hat and a pair of spurs as part of their formal wear.
