  • Down in the Rio Grande Valley, you'll find a boot manufactuer that's can trace it's roots back to 1853. We stop at the Rios of Mercedes Boot Comany to learn about their history and boots!

    He is absolutely right, we live in a throw away world. Almost impossible to find a local boot repair shop any more. Sad times, and a lost art.

    58 years ago when I was 12 years old, my dad took me to Rios of Mercedes to get fitted for my first custom made boots. I ended up getting a pair of exotic South American lizard boots made. I wore them everyday until I outgrew them. Rios made a very comfortable pair of boots.

    I own 5 pairs of Rios and love each one of them. Most comfortable boot I’ve worn.

    I am a big fan of Rios of Mercedes and AB boots, I own quite a few pairs, they are very comfortable and very good quality. I used to work in a western boot factory located in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. I meet Mr Trainor Evans in Denver in 1984 and since then I love Rios of Mercedes boots.

    It’s amazing the quality of work the cobblers and boot makers do. I’d rather get my boots made by a small business than buy a new pair from stores.
