‘Rodeo’ is a Western sport inherently rooted in the traditions of cowboy culture and cattle ranching from Western America , Mexico, Spain, and South America. What began as practical skills in herding and handling livestock has gradually evolved into a competitive sport that is now participated in by professionals and amateurs from around the world.
Rodeo can be categorised into three main events: rough stock events, timed events, and novelty events.

Cowboys are one of the most identifiable images within culture. From spaghetti Western movies to playground games, from young children to grown adults, cowboy culture is something that we all know a little bit about. However, most don’t know the history of the cowboy, where cowboys come from, or how the culture of cowboys and Western lifestyles has developed over time.
The design of cowboy boots was hugely inspired by early European riding boots, particularly those of the Spanish vaqueros, who wore heeled, leather boots for managing cattle and riding through tougher terrains – these boots were known as ‘botas vaqueras’. Originally designed for practicality and durability, they evolved to become a western style staple.
