NEED NOW Genesis 2 Male Cowboy Boots & Gear...

The title kind of says it all. I'm working on an illustration project and I need some cowboy boots for the Genesis 2 Male figure.
I usually use the Michael figures, so I have a lot of props for him, but not so much for the Genesis 2 figure.
Specifically, I just bought the "Long Time Dead" G2 male figure ( http://www.daz3d.com/long-time-dead-for-genesis-2-male ) and I'm decking him out as a cowboy. I've got some hats that fit, but am having trouble finding boots to fit him. Rather than monkey around trying to fit some existing boots, I'd just as soon buy some that are built for him.
Can anyone recommend some for me?
OR can you tell me if Genesis 1 boots will fit him?
Thanks!
Mike

There are some at the other marketplace, 'rosity - cannot link to it, but if you search for westernboots there, then you'll find them. Alternatively you can try autofit as it in general yields better results now even on footwear, though this is still tricky business at times.
As for the rest of the gear, that might be difficult depending on what look you want to achieve, but autofitting tries might be your best call (except for hat). If you use Daz Studio solely, you might also try Optitex dynamic cloth. They might be a bit fiddly to get working on G2M, as they were designed for M4, but in general I have experienced good results there - never tried them on the long time dead morph though :) There are also some Optitex 'freebies' around (also some parts in their shop).

Since you seem to have much items for M4 you might be able to convert your stuff. There is a handy topic in the help center.

edit:
The page gives you at least one of your questions.
I use clothes for genesis on gen2 all the time. I just tried the town and country boots and gen2 male and it fit fine.
Thanks for the tips, guys. I used the Town & Country Boots with the figure, and the Auto Fit function worked perfectly.
I also looked at those boots on the other site -- I may pick them up later, just so I have more variety for my footwear (I really like how they have boots for all the major figures).
And thanks for the tips on fitting and converting. The info was all very useful.
