I ordered an 11.5 in black and was nervous about shipping all the way to Aus without trying them on. I ordered my standard brannock size as the fit guide suggests and they do indeed fit true to size and were perfect for me.
I've had my fair share of western and non-western boots over the years and Chisos are hands down the most comfy and most impressive by far. From the box they were a good fit and were comfortable. I've had mine for a week so far and have worn them all day almost every day consecutively and each day they keep getting better. The level of craftsmanship and attention to detail is amazing.
I absolutely would recommend Chisos to anyone; they're easily worth the price and I will happily be buying another pair in Brown.
Received them in just a couple of days, all the way to the Netherlands! Also the south there ;)
After a month now wearing them now and then, they're breaking in absolutely fine and fit great. Boots of this excellence are quiet a rarity in my vicinity, so I'm very proud.
Gannon helped me great with the sizing!
These will no way be my last pair of Chisos!
Gorgeous boots and exactly what I was looking for. Also great customer service as I had to exchange once for a smaller size. I typically wear a 7.5 in flats and 8 in running shoes but have very narrow feet. First ordered the 7.5 but too loose so went down to 7 and it works!
Very comfortable right out of the box,totally recommend! Wish you'd have some sales though!
The boots are gorgeous. I have the Brushed Brown. Brown is the most versatile color in footwear. I think they go best with jeans, but can definitely be worn with chinos as well. I only wear them on the weekends for nights out so I'm sure they'll last forever. If I ever need a resole it would be years from now. I love the 11 inch shaft. I think that's the perfect height. I also love the slightly more than one and a half inch heel. I'm only 5"7" so it's appreciated. I'm usually an 8.5 EE but Dan recommended a 9D which was perfect. The right boot was super comfortable the 1st wear however the left was quite tight. Removing the insoles on the left one did the trick and now they're super comfortable as well. I'll put the insole back in once they're totally broken. Customer service is fabulous. Dan really knows his stuff and he was happy to pass along his knowledge to me. You can spend more on a pair of boots but you won't get a better pair. Love you Chisos
Extremely well made boots. Added the #1 Ostrich to the brown #2s. After a couple weeks of wear they break in perfect. Gonna be hard to go back to anything lesser made.
Usually have issues with footwear so im always sure to spend money on quality product. Mission accomplished, Fit great right away, I couldnt be happier. Wondering what the next pair will be
I usually wear 10.5 but sized up to 11 at the suggestion of your store staff. The instore experience & vibe is worth checking out if you are in Austin. The boots are very comfortable out of the box and basically require no break in time . Definitely more comfortable than my Luccheses. They also look great. Win/win . Thanks Chisos! You have a new fan!
I have lived in Texas for 15 years without buying boots . I feel fortunate that a friend pushed me towards Chisos as they are fabulous in all aspects !
I love the material of this shirt so much I bought another one that is a different color. If yall make different shirts keep the same material! It rocks
I’m a big boot guy and own several pairs of Redwings. These are my first pair of cowboy boots. I instantly loved them right out of the box. Didn’t take long to break them in and they are already my favorite boot in my collection. 10/10 would recommend if you want to walk around all day feeling like a boss.
Tried a few boot makers. These Chisos no.6 ropers are quite possibly the most comfortable boots I’ve ever put on. Instantly comfortable. My brannock is in between 11.5 and 12 D, and my foot is relatively low volume with a lowish instep. I ordered 11.5 and they are great
I used it on several other brand’s boots so far. Makes for a great texture, doesn’t darken the leather as much as most and really seems to do the job.
If you’re serious about maintaining high-quality leather boots, Chisos Leather Balm is a must-have in your care routine. Designed specifically for Chisos boots, but versatile enough for any full-grain leather, this balm keeps your boots hydrated, supple, and protected without compromising breathability.
Application – Smooth, Easy, and Mess-Free
Applying Chisos Leather Balm is effortless. The consistency is buttery smooth, allowing it to spread evenly without leaving a greasy residue. It absorbs quickly, so you won’t be left with an overly shiny or sticky surface. Just rub it in with a cloth or your hands, let it soak for a few minutes, and buff it out – simple and effective.
Results – Restores and Enhances Without Overpowering
One of the standout features is how natural the leather looks and feels after application. It revives dry leather, restores a rich, deep color, and enhances the leather’s natural patina without creating an artificial shine. Unlike heavier conditioners or waxes, this balm preserves breathability, which is crucial for keeping your boots comfortable over time.
Protection – Keeps Leather Hydrated & Long-Lasting
Leather boots face constant exposure to wear, moisture, and dust, but Chisos Leather Balm locks in essential oils, preventing cracking, drying, or premature aging. While it doesn’t make the leather waterproof, it adds a natural resistance to light moisture and scuffs, keeping the material in top condition for years.
Final Verdict – A Must-Have for Leather Enthusiasts
Chisos Leather Balm is an essential maintenance product for anyone who owns Chisos boots or other high-end leather footwear. It’s easy to apply, highly effective, and enhances durability without sacrificing breathability. If you want to keep your boots looking incredible for years, this is one of the best leather conditioners out there.
If you’re looking for a high-quality, all-day wearable cowboy boot that perfectly blends comfort, durability, and classic Western style, then the Chisos No. 2 is the gold standard. These boots are not just another pair of cowboy boots – they are a statement of quality and craftsmanship that stands out in a market flooded with mass-produced alternatives.
Comfort – Like a Broken-In Boot from Day One
The biggest selling point of the Chisos No. 2 is how incredibly comfortable they are right out of the box. No painful break-in period, no stiff leather rubbing against your foot – just a smooth, supportive, and cushioned feel from the first wear. The heritage leather insole molds to your foot over time, while the Chisos signature poron-cushioned insert offers support you won’t find in most traditional leather-lined boots.
Quality & Craftsmanship – Built to Last
Chisos doesn’t cut corners on materials. These boots are handcrafted using full-grain heritage leather, which means they’ll develop a beautiful patina over time. The channel welt construction adds an extra layer of durability, making them easily resoleable while maintaining their structure for years. The stitching is flawless, and the embossed Chisos logo on the outsole adds a touch of rugged elegance.
Design – A Modern Classic
The Chisos No. 2 strikes the perfect balance between traditional and contemporary Western design. The rounded, slightly squared toe offers a sleek profile without being overly modern, making them versatile for both business-casual settings and full-on ranch wear. The hand-tooled detailing on the shaft adds character, without going overboard on flashy embellishments.
Durability & Performance – Tough Enough for Anything
These boots aren’t just for show – they hold up to real-world wear. The reinforced double-stitched outsole and solid leather heel ensure that they won’t wear out quickly, even with daily use. Whether you’re walking city streets, working on a ranch, or just going out for a night on the town, the Chisos No. 2 performs beautifully in any situation.
Final Verdict – Worth Every Penny
If you appreciate quality, comfort, and a boot that can handle anything you throw at it, the Chisos No. 2 is one of the best investments you can make in Western footwear. They’re tough, stylish, and ridiculously comfortable, making them an essential boot for any serious cowboy boot enthusiast.
The Number 2's are great! It took 3 different sizes to get the right fit, and now the break in process has begun and the boots are fitting better with each use. Chisos has great customer service with good advice and follow through.
I will get another pair in the future.
After a prolonged email exchange with Gannon who was extremely helpful and patient with all my questions(needed to get it right as boots were gonna be shipped to uk) the boots arrived and they can say they’re amazing out of the box, mega comfortable, even thought they’re a bit snug but after only a couple of times of wearing they’re straying to break in and stretch to match my feet.
The quality of the boots is outstanding.
Highly recommend them, and looking forward to many years of use and more than likely adding at least another pair !!
Best pair of cowboy boots I have in my collection. Easily the most comfortable and well crafted boots I’ve worn. They definitely live up to the hype. I’m looking forward to getting a pair of rough outs next.
My roughout belt is pretty pretty good.... It's tough, and solid. Gannon branded my initials on it, so it's only mine!
Thought long and hard about spending $595 on a pair of pretty basic looking black roper boots that one can't even try on before buying. Significant chunk-o-change for boots meant to be worn and worked just about every day; not just worn by a misguided politician trying too hard to look like 'Average Joe' while attending inauguration balls or filming soundbites while hunting with his personal firearm he doesn't know how to use. Immediately upon opening the subtle, classy packaging, you are immediately impressed by the look of these quality boots. Not ostentatious, Corafam-polished, everyone-look-at-me-boot scoot and line dance boots, rather, boots that emulate the spirit of a Clydesdale; Strong, elegant (in a manly way), and yearning to work. Slipping them on was close to a spiritual experience -- an easy pull, a slight thump at the heel and a perfect fit. Just to be sure they were keepers, wore them around the house whittling away at my 'Honey-do' list. By lunchtime 4-hours later, I'd reached foot-boot Zen. We (my Chisos #6 and me) worked the rest of the afternoon outdoors and didn't even take them off for supper. No break-in period required, these boots are keepers! Thanks Chisos!
These are, without question, the best boots I’ve ever owned. I’ve had Lucchese, Anderson Bean, Tecovas and Rujo. The comfort is far above all the others and they look great. I like them so much I already bought a pair of No 2 in magic black to go with the brown. I wear them with jeans and with dress pants for work.
Recent visit to Austin where I met the Chisos team. Friendly staff made picking the right size a breeze . The boots were shipped home free of charge. Minimal break in period. Kudos to Chisos! Already thinking about my next pair
