Free Returns on All Boots

Designed for stability and comfort while wrangling calves, rugged roper-style boots have more support around the ankle than traditional western boots, along with a shorter heel. The Rancher Zip Boot is a roper with a convenient side zipper. It has a leather vamp and 10” corded crown shaft and features an R toe—a classic all-purpose style that also dresses up well—as well as a stacked leather walking heel and intricate hand cording. Its quality construction includes 3⁄4 welt soles, brass nails and handmade lemonwood pegs that will expand and contract with any moisture the boot may encounter. Premium leather lining and a removable Tru-X insole ensure comfort in every step.

Our boots are made with the same care and consideration that goes into our legendary headwear, resulting in the ultimate mix of heel-to-toe comfort, rugged durability, and timeless western style. Crafted in the bootmaking capital of León, Mexico—where the tradition of creating frontier-ready leather footwear dates back to the mid-17th century—each pair takes approximately 40 hours and 200 individual steps to complete. They are lasted, stitched and tooled entirely by hand, using high-quality leathers that will develop an attractive patina over time and welt construction that allows them to be resoled as needed. Equally fit for days on the range or nights on the town, they’re made to go the extra mile.

THE STETSON STANDARD

Time-honored

Crafted by Hand

From rugged roughouts to rare exotics, our leathers are selected for their durability as well as their appearance. They are then cut, stretched, and shaped in a hand-lasting process that ensures our boots will only get more comfortable with time and wear.

Made to last

A Solid Foundation

Premium brass nails and lemonwood pegs—which expand and contract at the same rate as leather as they encounter moisture—are hammered into the sole by hand. A hand-stacked leather heel provides comfort in every step, and welt construction allows our boots to be resoled as needed.

Singular Style

The Details that Differentiate

Inside and out and from heel to toe, our boots are defined by their attention to detail, from roper boots with subtle hand-corded shafts and hand-stitched accents on classic R-toes to statement-making women’s styles.

Legendary quality

More Than 200 Steps

It takes more than 200 steps to craft each Stetson boot, all performed by skilled craftspeople in the legendary boot-making capital of León, Mexico. The result? Boots that are worthy of the Stetson name, designed for all-day comfort and rugged durability over the long haul.

Since 1865

True Heritage

Our story begins in the 1860s, when John B. Stetson was prospecting for gold in the Colorado Rockies and, struck by a sudden rainstorm, quickly fashioned a felt hat for protection. The modern cowboy hat was born, and more than a century and a half later, John B.’s pioneering legacy and commitment to quality live on in everything we make, from headwear and apparel to our handcrafted boots.
