BEYONCE’S move into country music has spurred demand for cowboy boots.
Since she released her No 1 album Cowboy Carter last month, sales of the western footwear have soared by 24 per cent.
Taylor Swift has also been wearing similar boots on her Eras Tour.
Beth Goldstein, of market research firm Circana, said: “We can expect a resurgence in western style this year as a result of the aesthetic playing a prominent role in pop culture on the stage with Beyonce and Taylor Swift.”

It came after she released a song called Levii’s Jeans with rapper Post Malone.
