shitkicker
Rough rural type
Shitkicker is a rough, rural, or working-class person—someone who might literally kick through cow shit on a farm.
The term can be dismissive or affectionate depending on context.
Shitkickers are also heavy boots suitable for such work: He wore his old shitkickers to the bar.
As an adjective, shitkicker describes anything aggressively country: shitkicker music, a shitkicker bar.
