The Vintage Rios Boot No.92  is built from premium Horween® horsehide leather and made exclusively for us by Rios Of Mercedes, in Texas. They are one of only a few boot makers that still produces boots using "Channelled Insole Goodyear Welt Construction", an artisanal construction process that extends the longevity, improves comfort and allows you to recraft the boot for generations.

This version is built from our Horween® Chromexcel Horsehide. A new leather for us in 2024. This is a Horween®  leather that is difficult to source and not commonly found today. The front-quarter horsehide starts out with a Chromexcel base, which is vegetable-retanned and hot stuffed with Horween® tanning liquors. The flesh side is finished and the grain side is smooth and untouched. Horween® hand dyes and glazes the horsehide to provide a tight flesh and fine luster. A unique and durable tannage that is near waterproof, looks fantastic and functions exceptionally in boots and luggage. The hides are relatively light-weight at 3-3.5oz but with a firm temper to give products the right "stand-up". 100% tanned at the Horween® tannery in Chicago, IL USA.

Each boot is hand-lasted and reinforced with a steel shank and that is secured with wooden pegs. The fully stacked leather heels (1' tall) are finished with a rubber heel tap for longevity. They are leather lined, built without any insole fillers and finished with a premium, lightweight & durable Vibram® brand sole. They are finished with antique brass eyelets and speedhooks and premium waxed cotton laces.
 
The Rios No.92 Fit
The fit of the Rios No.92 boot is slightly generous with a comfortable last engineered for everyday use. Built on a standard D width but closer to an E width in the toe box, making it comfortable out of the box with less break-in time. Typically order ½ size smaller than your average shoe or western boot size.
