This boot’s minimalist design puts the focus on the quality of construction and incredible oil tanned leather.  The boots are designed to take a beating and look amazing at the same time.  It’s raw and fearless just like its namesake - Texas legend Jim Bowie. The oil-tanned leather is ‘self-healing’ and can be darkened with more conditioner, but the leather is versatile and hides imperfections. A bit of leather conditioner will keep the boots with a rich oiled look but if you like the lighter tan look just let them be, without conditioning (the pics show variations in color depending on the amount of conditioner used).   These boots can be customized with laser engraving! Just upload your logo and we'll contact you to get the image right.  ($95 adder) We use no synthetic material and every part of it is handmade (which is why this boot will last a lifetime). These details are important. 1 1/2” Square Cowboy Toe   Uppers are calf 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 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 an 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. No returns on customized boots.   *UPDATE November 26, 2024: DUE to the high demand - we are not taking any more initials at this time.  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. Add a Sole Protector Here ---------- These boots are dedicated to the legendary Jim Bowie.  He made a name for himself in the south as a knife fighter and a wily businessman.  His leadership in the Texas Revolution emboldened the Texians in the Battle of Concepcion and the Grass Fight.  He was to lead the Alamo garrison but fell ill, yet fought to the death with his brethren.
