Lets see...I was born and raised on a ranch in south east Idaho. I grew up ridin? horses, feedin? cows, and causin? trouble. I had no idea what shoes were, but I sure knew what boots were growin? up.
After high school graduation, the Air Force, and Motorola, I found myself in Phoenix Arizona running my own leather shop and ridin? bulls. It was around this time that I got to know an old custom boot maker by the name of Jesse Bogle. Every time ole? Jesse came in I?d give him a hard time about letting me make myself a pair of cowboy boots.
Well, he finally let me make a pair and the rest is history. Old man Bogle asked me if I wanted to go to work for him in 1980 and about a year later I went out on my own and created Cowboy Boots by George!
Not to brag or nothin? but I became well known in those parts for my craftsmanship. Frankly, I just got better and better - but Arizona got hotter and hotter! So I opened a boot and leather shop in Utah for a few years and in 1995 I retired and moved back to the ranch where I was born and raised.
Well, not to worry, I just like makin' cowboy boots for folks way too much and couldn't give it up... So I converted an old milk barn into my boot barn!
I get a lot repeat business, shoot I?ve even got one fella from Arizona that still calls me every 5 years or so for a pair. Anyway, a few years ago my wife got the Internet and I figured I ought to go worldwide!
If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm pretty particular about boots. There are a few good boot makers out there and a lot of scoundrals. But there are very few truly exceptional boot makers. Now I don't say I'm exceptional, but I've had a lot of customers through the years that have told me that I am - and I don't want to argue with them.
The good news is this, I?ve decided that the last few years of my life are going to be spent with my wife Jan, and handmakin? a limited number of cowboy boots for folks that can appreciate a damn good pair of boots.
