Gonzales

These are the essence of 'Come And Take It'!  They are 'V' tail-cut caiman (stitched vamps) with oil-tanned tops tooled with the iconic flag in an antiqued style. This boot is bold and 'in your face', just like the Texas Spirit!

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 hand-tooled Come And Take It flag and 12" high
• Heel is leather stacked 1 1/2” (brown)
• 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 stock boots are 'true to size' in order to conform perfectly with your foot, but this makes them more of a custom feel (slightly tighter). Other companies tend to oversize their boots, so if you want a comparable fit then go up a half size (if a 10 in other stock boots, order a 10.5) - 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 3-6 weeks to complete this.

These boots are dedicated to the brave men at Gonzales. It was the fall of 1835. Mexican President Santa Anna had dissolved the Constitution and made himself dictator. Tensions began to flare between his oppressive government and the liberty minded desires of Texans and Tejanos. To suppress the rumblings of unrest and revolution, the Mexican military leaders began their quest to quietly disarm the Texans. One of the first actions was to retrieve a cannon lent to the Texan colonists at Gonzales. The famous bronze cannon was loaned to the Gonzales colonists by the Mexican government in 1831 to defend themselves from hostile Apaches and Comanches. Mexican Corporal Casimiro De León and a few soldiers were sent to reclaim the cannon.

This kicked off the Texas Revolution. The Come and Take It flag is a symbol from the Battle of Gonzales that’s prevailed through 183 years of Texas history. The flag stood for defiance against Mexican dictatorship, and today the flag’s meaning remains rooted in Texas pride.
