## Summary

Waxed kudu roughout leather roper boots featuring an embroidered shaft, rounded toe, and a durable rubber heel for a blend of western style and rugged durability.

## Description

When it comes to making boots, this isn’t Rios of Mercedes' first rodeo. The Texas bootmaker has been crafting fine leather footwear since 1853, when the grandparents of founders Zeferino and Abraham Rios began making cavalry boots for Maximillian’s soldiers in General Terán, Nuevo León, Mexico. This rich history is exactly why we’re collaborating with the brand to create a one-of-a-kind roper boot. Found in our Flint and Tinder “Western Reserve Collection”, The Waxy Kudu is a leather stepper made from waxed kudu roughout—a luxury leather that comes from the African Greater Kudu Antelope. The material is known for its ironclad strength, water-resistance, and soft and supple feel that patinas beautifully over time. And because its got our F&T designers’ touch, you’ve got a handful of functional details to make the wearing experience above-and-beyond. Namely, leather side pulls for easy foot entry, a non-slip rubber heel, and a removable leather footbed for comfort. This is a boot fit for a certified outlaw (who pays his taxes on time).
