What makes a well made pair of cowboy boots? For me this can be an open ended question! Are you looking for a pair of boots that can withstand the everyday task of caring for animals in the rain, mud, dirt, fecal matter, dust, snow and etc.? Or do you want a boot you can look good in and feel proud of? Or does the boot tell a story, makes you think and wonder what was in the mind of the maker? Or all of the above?
For me I want materials that have been tested in all of these environments! I want to know what I produce will last the test of time and only break down because you are starting to do the same. I want the boot to mold to your foot, but I also want you to be apart of the build. Most individuals do not care to be apart of the boot process. They want a boot that works and last (value for their money). So my question to you is do your boots last?
If I open your boots will I find metal and leather; or will I find foam, fiber board, gemming, low quality leather, machine computerized stitching and nothing that reflects your personality? You probably spent good money for those boots to. Did the sells person tell you if the boot works for your environment? Not all leather is created equal and not all boots are made the same.
When I started this journey I destroyed hundreds of pairs of boots to see how they worked and were constructed. I used them in the fields and caring for live stock and 95% of the time the store bought boots never lasted. I'm sure we have all faced this conundrum at one point or another. Today's boots are meant to be thrown away so you can buy another pair. Rarely can these boots be repaired.
So with the help of my mentor and his 60+ years in footwear, I have sought out how to make a truly custom and great boot. No matter the elements, if I have not tested them I will not try to sell them to anyone, PERIOD! A true custom boot should be only leather, rubber, metal and more leather; and nothing more. With all leather ethically sourced and something made from some strange ingredients (also known as vegan leather), I'm sure we can figure out how to make your dream come true.
SO what is my process? We start with measurements. From there we figure out leathers, your own pattern (I will not reuse a pattern for someone else; your feet are never going to be like someone else so why should your boots) and stitching colors. We also come up with a plan for the toe design, height and shape of the boot (heel included). You will then provide me with a drawing, or something that is YOU! Remember these are your boots and you should feel like you designed these boots. Then I get to work. I do all the hard work of getting the boot made. Then we have first fit, where you decide how the boot works and feels on your foot. I will finish the boot and you get back to work/life enjoying something you helped to make. Simple for you but a passion for me.
Time! How long does it take. That depends on you and the types of leather you want to use; remember not all leather is created equal.
Cost! Prices start at $850 and go up depending on materials used.
What do I use: Leather, metal, rubber and more leather. EVERY pair is hand tied into the leather insole, that is also treated for water, bacterial and etc.
When do you pay: You pay $200.00 down and the rest when the boots are made to YOUR liking.
