I’ve added a bunch “new” labels to the “Makers’ Marks” Photo Pool on Flickr. Now, there are more than 70 custom and store-bought cowboy boot labels… and yes, there’s plenty of room for more!
(P.S. I’ve alphabetized my photos.)
Cowboy Boots on eBay
Friends, these boots are the missing link …the link between a “plain” stitched boot and the moment when a cowboy boot first caught fire with the flame inlay patterns we see today. I want to buy these boots, photograph every curve and stitch, write down their backstory and catalogue them for our museum.

Cowboy Boot Companies
I’ve just updated my Cowboy Boot Companies page, where you’ll find boot companies in sizes M, L & XL. There are many MANY links on this page, but here are a couple you won’t want to miss:
- Go to the Lucchese website and watch their video, “A Day in the Life of a Lucchese-made Cowboy Boot.” …then while you’re over there, click over and view Lucchese’s Historic State Boots
- And take a look, Zappos.com is having a great sale on Old Gringo men’s and women’s cowboy boots!
