Tony Lama Boots - The spirit of the old west
Tony Lama boots were born when a young man, who had joined the cavalry as a cobbler, completed his tour of duty. Tony Lama was the son of Italian immigrants and learned the trade of making shoes as an apprentice at the age of 11. When he finished his work with the cavalry he decided to stay in El Paso, Texas, and began repairing boots for the soldiers. When the cowboys and ranchers learned that he also made boots, they began to come to him. Tony Lama boots were in great demand, and western wear stores began ordering his boots. Since that time, other makers of boots in the spirit of the Old West have come along, and Durango is one of them. Durango boots are famous for their tough wear ability, while still maintaining great comfort qualities. Tony Lama Boots - A pioneerOnly 20 pairs of Tony Lama boots were made the first year after Tony
Lama started his business. But after 50 years of making boots, in 1961
the company moved to a large facility and began making 750 pairs per
day. The inventor had learned new methods of manufacture and was able to
continue the quality of hand crafting while producing greater
quantities. Answering the demand for supply in the southwest, Durango
began their company in 1966. Durango boots come in a wide range of
western and city styles for men and women, and are noted for their
hand-crafted, all-leather boot design. In addition to these, you might
also like Double H boots, known as bull-rider boots, as they sponsor a
team of bull-riders. There are also the luxury
cowboy boots, Lucchese
boots, which are handmade, one at a time, and worn by Hollywood stars,
presidents and sports legends.
