Q: I prefer not to buy them on line as I would like to try them on. Anyone know of any stores?
A: You can find a lot of western gear, including boots, at WJ Colts in Springfield Mall. In case you are new to the DC area, Springfield Mall is just off I-95 near the Beltway. WJ Colt & Co Western Wear 6690 Springfield Mall Springfield, VA 703) 971-7555 http://www.wjcolt.com A little farther away for you is Carol's Western Wear in Laurel, MD Carol's Western Wear C9600 Fort Meade Rd (Rt. 198) Laurel, MD 20707 (301) 317-4288 There is also a place in Georgetown, DC that I've never been to, so I don't know if it is good or not. But it may be the most convenient of the three. Cowboy Western Wear 3147 Dumbarton St NW Washington, DC 20007 (202) 298-8299 Hope this helps.
