Today, Rios of Mercedes, under the guidance of Trainor Evans and J.P. Moody, still makes cowboy boots in much the same way the Rios family did - by hand. We think you should know that there is no secret to producing well made cowboy boots. It takes the best materials, skilled craftsmanship and lots of time. That’s exactly what we put into each Rios of Mercedes boot.
There is nothing average about our boots.
The hands that make a handmade cowboy boot take five times longer than an average bootmaker (And we don’t make average boots). Rios of Mercedes cowboy boots are the works of proud craftsmen whose attention to detail comes from the heart and years of experience. We make cowboy boots that look good, fit well, and last long.
