Form, Meet Function
Calf ropers of the early 20th century weren't too satisfied with the tall heels of cowboy-style boots. They wanted something they could run in. And so the roper was born.
With a shorter heel, shorter shaft, and subdued silhouette, the roper is the cowboy boot's quieter cousin. Still built Chisos tough, the flatter footing of the roper is arguably a harder worker.
Personally, we rotate between 'em both.
Your Chisos boots will last decades with appropriate attention. The vamp (leather surrounding the foot) and leather shaft require only minimal care. Condition this leather about once every three months. Store in a cool, dry location and take a day off between heavy uses to allow the insides to properly dry.
The leather soles of your boots are designed to wear out and be replaced, much like the brakes on your pickup truck. Your mileage will vary depending on conditions of use, your weight, and your walking style. Avoid repeated exposure to water and excess moisture. When needed, a cobbler can perform a full resole and heel replacement.
To extend the life of new soles, have a cobbler apply a rubber sole saver upon receipt. No matter what, physics is going to win against leather soles and stitching. To slow the process, a cobbler can add some rubber to mitigate.
Compared to the other popular brand sold online, these feel much more a part of my foot and very protective. The soles on the other brand is thin enough to feel the gravel of a dirt driveway. But the Chisos have just the right amount of ankle support, foot bed thickness, and downright comfort. I have the No 6 in brown and the King Roper.
Size wise, I usually run 10 on average with boots. The King Roper is 10 and perfect. In the brown No 6, I ended up needing a 10.5 with a slightly thicker sock to be comfortable. The 10 was extremely tight with a thin sock and was a foot ache that was too much to withstand. Customer service was great to make the exchange and explained how the difference in the leathers contributed.
Totally love both pair!!
Bought a half-size down as recommended, and after two weeks of consistent wear they feel like leather socks on my feet. Had to change out the insoles for a better overall fit, but once I did, I never took them off. Boots are proper soft and built with a lot of care. You won’t be bummed with these under your step. Cheers to making such quality, Chisos.
Most comfortable boots I’ve ever worn.
I bought these and a pair of T_____s at the same time to get a feel for who made a better boot. I kept the Chisos 😉.
Top Quality 👍🏻🇺🇸
I love these boot but like the company more. The customer support is the best I’ve experienced. I wear boots everyday on my farm, and the quality of the build is obvious and comfort is second to none. I had one issue with one of the footbeds and they sent me a replacement no questions asked. I will be ordering another pair or two.
Bought these boots for comfort and to wear to church with black pants. They are indeed quite comfortable, and yes, more comfortable than any other boot I have owned; however, I wouldn’t necessarily say night and day different, than say tecovas (which I also have), but they are discernibly more comfortable. You may ask yourself, how is this done? Well, like the videos show, they have super thick welts and soles. So what, you may say. Well, the one drawback to this added comfort is that they’re noticeably heavier than any other boot I’ve owned. At the end of the day, the comfort is really great and I’m very satisfied. One thing I wish were different, being that I’m a person who likes a little bling (I guess), is that they leather had a little more of a shine (black shine/quasi corfam). How do they fit? Well, I normally wear an 11D in dress shoes. I have a pair of number ones in 11D and they fit perfect. The number sixes are just a tad loose in the right foot (a human’s left foot always a touch bigger than the right). Maybe a 10.5 would have been perfect, but I’m ok with a little space, especially on a plane when your feet swell with the compensation of cabin pressure. So…yes, I really like them. Are they worth the money?…I’d say as a peasant, speaking here, yes, even though the steep cost, the maneuverability I get with these boots makes me forget the cost. Just save your three weekends of beer expenditures and buy you a pair. Would really like to see “Made in Texas” on the inside, but maybe one day soon. Oh, how could I forget, customer service from Allison and Evan was outstanding. You can really tell they care.
Love my Chisos No. 6.
I'm from the UK so getting the right size was paramount. Unfortunately my first order came up a little tight so I had to return them and re-order.
To help anyone else out I'm a 10.5 (US) in 875 Red Wing and New Balance Trainers. 11 D Chisos No. 6 fits me perfectly with a thinner liner. The standard one is a little too tall in the heel for me.
It would be great if you could order a thinner liner from Chisos.
I love my boots!
My son bought a pair of Chisos after working and saving his money. His grandmother then treated him to a pair of No. 6 Roughouts and he loves them. Great quality and superior craftmanship. He says they are incredibly comfortable.
