These incredible boots are made of caiman belly with the tops stitched in a Lone Star Eagle pattern. These classic colors can be worn with a suit or just as easy with your everyday adventures.
We use no synthetic materials and every aspect is handmade (which is why this boot will last a lifetime). These details are important.
- Classic Round Toe
- Uppers have Lone Star Eagle stitching and 12" high
- Heel is leather stacked 1 1/2”
- Soles are hand pegged with lemonwood, reinforced with brass clinch nails
- Reinforced pulls
- Lux-calf interior for glove-like comfort
- Full leather insole (for breathability and custom shaping to your foot)
Our men's boots fit true to size. If the majority of your shoes are a size 10 then order a size 10 in ours (its free to exchange if something is off).
Our Full Leather Insoles allow the Width to be Modifiable! They are built on a EE base and have a full leather insole that (when inserted) makes the boot a D width (normal). So, simply remove this leather insert for EE (wide) width, or keep it inserted for D (normal) width. They will conform comfortably to your feet either way.
Add up to 3 initials on the pulls (black, brown, or bone) to customize the boots. Put the initials in the Order Notes. We handmake these (inlay into the pulls) and it takes us 3-4 weeks to complete this.

These boots are dedicated to Erastus 'Deaf' Smith. He was the most famous scout during the Texas War for Independence. His bravery was unmatched and inspired many to keep up the fight and his knowledge of the lands was invaluable. While his hearing was impaired, his other senses were enhanced to spy on the enemy. He was General Sam Houston's most trusted scout and fought in many of the Revolution's battles. He then joined the Texas Rangers and fought many skirmishes, before retiring to San Antonio then Richmond TX where he passed in 1837.
